"none of the dissents challenged the district court’s factual finding that Trump had engaged in an insurrection."

That Trump was never charged nor found guilty of "insurrection" does not seem to matter here.

This is that fat sack of sour vomit that is (or was) married to Kellyanne Conway.

But of course he’d write a nonsensical trump hating screed like this one. And for Atlantic of course.

Because it wasn’t FACTUAL to begin with.

It’s subjective opinion at best.

George Conway, like Chris Christie, is a disappointed office seeker. It’s amazing what an ass he has made of himself after losing the Solicitor General job to Noel Francisco.

If there’s a weakness in the majority’s argument, an able judge will expose it, sometimes brutally, and she. . .

Conway's prose betrays some of the warning signs of dicklessness--a tragic flaw in a man's brain.

Indeed, not one of the J6 defendants has been charged with insurrection, either. To me, this is where the entire majority decision falls into dust.

The constitutional language is plain. You can’t be president if you previously took an oath “as an officer of the United States … to support the Constitution of the United States” but “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” against, or have “given aid or comfort to the enemies of,” that Constitution or the nation it charters.

This fool is completely unaware that half the country does not believe Trump fostered an insurrection. He's surely never looked into it himself. It's just an agreed upon fact. Like anthropogenic global warming.

“That Trump was never charged nor found guilty of “insurrection” does not seem to matter here.”


Well in a sense it doesn’t. The Confederate officials banned from office were never charged nor found guilty of insurrection. It was public knowledge and record that they had participated in the Confederate government or led Confederate armies.

What is up for debate is whether or not the events of January 6 constituted an ‘insurrection’. Democrats apparently believe in their heart of hearts that it was and that somehow President Trump was a part of it. They are comparing an hours-long disruption of Congress to the four-year bloodshed of the Civil War. But then, they believe that men can give birth.

But the 14th Amendment doesn’t ban anyone from seeking office so banning Trump’s name from the primary makes no sense. Further, should he win the nomination, while his name might be on the ballot in the general election, in fact voters will be voting for Electors pledged to vote for Trump, not Trump himself.

Should Trump win in ‘24 I foresee this 14th Amendment nonsense to continue to try to keep him from taking office. A good reason to make sure that the House remains in Republican control.

George Conway. That’s a big surprise.

In the case of Donald Trump, I am more and more reminded what an old friend once told me. He had been an Albanian communist partisan in WW2. Enver Hoxha had been his school teacher in the city of Korçë. After the war, my friend was in charge of trying the cases of people accused of collaborating with the Germans and the Italians — AKA fascists. He endeavored to have fair trials and was acquitting people if the evidence of their alleged crime was not convincing. The Communists asked him about this. He said those people acquitted were not guilty, based on evidence. The Communists told him, “No, they are all guilty, and perhaps you are a fascist too.” Seeing the writing on the wall, he escaped to Greece, took refuge in a church, became an Orthodox Christian, and moved to the United States where he made a good life for himself.

I wish he were still around so I could ask him what he thought of the case of Donald Trump.

Indeed, the Colorado decision invites a riposte from the Red States. Simply have Red State legislatures enact a law that no candidate who has committed impeachable offenses may be on the ballot for election, with the determination to be made by the legislature or the state court system.

Then have the legislature hold a hearing and vote that neither Joe Biden or Kamala Harris may be on the ballot because their administration opened the border in violation of federal law and Biden took bribes. Under the reasoning of the Colorado decision, the lack of an actual impeachment is no bar to such a decision.

This case seems headed for the Supreme Court of the United States, which has no authority to make definitive pronouncements about state law. In Colorado, the Supreme Court of Colorado has the last word on that.

How does this crap even get published? Oh my God, the stupidity.
