    Just wait for when they let Trump off and run in Colorado and Maine despite the insurrection article. Should be interesting.

      I am curious what they will let things off for. It is one thing to deny the term insurrection being accurate, it is another say he is immune to charges for trying to use fake electors. I think the denial of losing the election after even having an investigation come back hired by them and say it was legitimate, the fake electors and the multiple usages of the term fight with the constant we will give more information later is what adds up to the full grasp of it being undeniable that he intended to overthrow our system of government through stealing the election.

      When they try to break it down into parts and minimize each, is what will assist them being able to deny terminology and make light of the situation.

      Those rulings are just for the primaries in those states, not the general election. The RNC has already said they’ll do something different in those states so he’ll be the candidate, and on the ballot, in the general election

        He’s not eligible for office. If they don’t want a candidate on the ballot, that’s fine by me.

        Might be a good opportunity for a third party. The greens are run by Russia, right? Throw those traitors on there. They haven’t committed insurrection yet.
