Precision Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 If the AP's calling it, then it's pretty much over. The Supreme Court seems poised to reject efforts to kick Trump off the ballot over the Capitol riot "Justice Elena Kagan was among several justices who wanted to know “why a single state should decide who gets to be president of the United States.” In another sign of trouble for the Colorado voters who sued to remove Trump from the ballot, the justices spent little time talking about whether Trump actually “engaged in insurrection” following the 2020 election."

So you're saying there wasn't a rally or that there were no crimes?? If I believed neither thing happened, then clearly I myself would be the one being told what to believe. Anyone who can think KNOWS that they were both at a stop the steal rally, and they attempted to stop Bidens electoral count. Those are just cold hard facts.

Sure there was a rally and sure there were crimes. No one has ever said otherwise. And if you've been paying attention, I've said from the beginning that those who committed actual crimes deserved to be punished. But that doesn't make an insurrection, either (poorly) planned or otherwise, much less Trump responsible when he never told them to get violent, much less break into the Capitol either publicly or even in private. A group of unarmed people cannot take over a (modern, first world) government. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDHillFan Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 I’m not very well schooled on the history of coups. Are there any others outside of Jan 6 that were quelled by the ringing of the dinner bell? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precision Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 If Colorado and Maine are so upset by Trump running, perhaps it would be best for both states to not participate in this election. Spread their electoral college delegates among the states that have decided to fully embrace this election. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they ALL did it poorly, especially Eastman who was sending out emails admitting they knew what they were doing was illegal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must not have happened then. I guess that delay was imaginary, too. There weren't literally people on the house floor with guns drawn afraid for their lives. People with gas mask being rushed off. Yeah, must not have been any obstruction of an official proceeding. Apparently, if no one is charged that means we can suspend reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, maybe if she had, it could have been somewhat closer to (but still not) an "insurrection" and Byrd would have killed her in self defense instead of cold blood.

I don't know man. If someone's coming for me, and I don't know their intentions, they're getting it. I realize Byrd should have been trained to handle it differently, but it was def a FAFO moment for her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Man Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Back to the thread. . . . . . Justice Brett Kavanaugh Delivers Reality Check to Colorado Attorney in Effort to Exclude Trump from Ballot: ‘Trump Has Not Been Charged with an Insurrection’ by Jim Hoft During the Supreme Court oral arguments for Trump v. Anderson, Justice Brett Kavanaugh delivered a pointed reminder that former President Donald Trump has not been formally charged with insurrection. Thursday’s proceedings centered on the contested application of the 14th Amendment’s prohibition against insurrectionists holding office, which has been invoked in an attempt to disqualify Trump from the 2024 primary ballot in Colorado. The Colorado Supreme Court ruled in a 4-3 decision to keep President Trump off the 2024 Primary ballot in the state. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/02/justice-brett-kavanaugh-delivers-reality-check-lead-attorney/ .
