Kemp Posted July 31, 2020 Author Share Posted July 31, 2020 9 hours ago, Kemp said: "I'm not going to enter a legal judgement on the fly this morning," Pompeo told Sen. Tim Kaine during a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing, after the Virginia Democrat asked about Trump's tweet. "In the end, the DOJ, others, will make that legal determination." - Mike Pompeo. So, Pompeo doesn't know what the Constitution says or he is lying. No 3rd option. This is MAGA in a nutshell. Those who back Pompeo and Trump on this either don't know what is in the Constitution or are lying. Trump supporters can't dispute what I just wrote. They can only say irrelevant things on the subject and personally insult. What a sorry group. 9 hours have passed and the Trumpys continue to avoid like it's kryptonite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
123719bwiqrb Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 I read this thread title, laugh and think - we would all be blessed if god emperor Trump remains in power. If EvilTrump loses, what will you do with all your spare time? That’s like 2-4 hours of your day you’ll get back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You threw out the quote as if everyone knew what he meant or what he was referring to. Question for you. Could COVID wreak havoc on people being able to get out and vote. So what is the problem with floating the idea of postponing the election until we can come up with a viable solution during the pandemic?

If he loses he'll leave like everyone before him did, he's not leaving the WH kicking and screaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Secretary of State offers a statement in direct opposition to the Constitution and you brush it off like he ordered a sandwich that's not on the menu. You know he's wrong. Pompeo knows he's wrong, yet he has not retracted his statement, at least that I have seen. Why do you think that is? Trump floats an idea of postponing an election in direct opposition to the Constitution and you act as if it's no big deal. My if question at the top of this thread is leaning towards more than if now and those here that told me that that could never happen are learning that. Actually, they're not learning a thing. If it does happen, most here will rationalize it away, because you would prefer a king or dictator if he was Trump. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defends an administration toying with delaying an election in direct contrast with the Constitution, but no doubt considers himself a patriot and law and order guy.

Don’t break your arm trying to pat yourself on the back. Your first (un-original) hypothetical is just that. Trump’s statement has no actual bearing on that. Nobody wants to get into your panic room with you. All you’re looking for is validation of a myth.

We don't even know if Trump can pass a dementia test, so no way he knows what's in the Constitution. He's evil and a moron. I once erroneously thought that Richard Nixon was the worst POTUS in my life time, but even Nixon loved his country and respected the US Constitution enough to resign rather than face potential removal from office. Covid Donnie loves only himself and respects nothing. Nothing matters to him except what he wants and what he thinks is good for him, no matter what the cost to Americans and the US. His response to the coronavirus pandemic demonstrates that in spades. He's a would-be dictator perfectly capable of descending to the level of Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, etc if allowed to do so. The immediate rejection of Trump's suggestion to postpone the presidential election by Congressional Republicans gives me hope that if Covid Donnie loses the election and refuses to leave that he will be forced out by total lack of support from both American politicians who love their country and respect the US Constitution.

It's playing out right in front of you in the open. Either you're as slow as Trump or you are fine with it. Don't pretend to be a law and order patriot, like Trump does, because you have no problem with tossing the Constitution into the trash. Only fools and those who wouldn't mind abolishing democracy are still proudly wearing their MAGA hats. Then again, you have had lots of chances to jump off the bandwagon. His saying there are good people on both sides, when one side has Nazis. His breaking the Emoluments clause. His suggestion that injecting bleach might cure a virus. Now, he wants to trash the Constitution. But you're still with him. That tells me all I need to know about folks like you. You would follow him into the sewer. You already have. Idiot, evil, or both is the only remaining question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah god forbid we open a conversation to figure out how best to make sure everyone’s vote counts during the worst pandemic in 100 years. BTW which section of the Bill of Rights states that Presidential Election MUST be held on the first Tuesday in November. What part of the Constitution states the Election Day MUST be on the first Tuesday in November? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bilzfancy Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Election day is when a winner is usually chosen, Trump was saying that could be delayed due to mail in voting and gave NYS as an example, their primary was over a month ago and just now finished counting the votes, but let's make it bigger then it really is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
