You don’t see answering a question about whether Trump should be barred from the ability to hold office with a statement about Trumps right to speak at the ‘trial’ is a bit off?

From IPS eulogy for Marxist Marcus Raskin:

“Back in the day, “think tanks,” especially radical ones, did not exist. (And besides, how to you finance such a thing? Marc didn’t blink: “You figure out what you want to do, and you get [fill in the blank] to do it.” Within a few years, conservatives gave IPS the backhand compliment of creating The Heritage Institute because IPS had shown what you could do if you were serious! ... The Institute in those early days was both serious and also very funky: You could bump into anyone from Stokely Carmichael to Hannah Arendt or Leo Szilard (who got Einstein to write the letter to Roosevelt that led to the Atomic bomb) Just in passing, Marc and Dick and Ralph Stavins gave the Pentagon Papers to the New York Times. All in a day’s work. ...”

Well I keep hearing it and I just thought the guy had a facelift but he does look different. I just want to see who else thinks so.

“”After Marine One landed at the White House at 9:39 a.m.””

I didn’t think he was even out of bed that early. Where on earth was he coming from at that time of morning?

“You don’t see that as a non sequitur?”

Reporter asks if Trump should lose his political rights.

Biden’s saying there a trial, he can defend himself, and the Senate will make their decision.

Explain how that’s a non sequitur.

I’m not a Biden supporter but must we find every single thing he says and to be, almost by definition, wrong?

Are you not understanding the difference between political rights and ostensible legal rights?

Give your explanation and we’ll go from there.

Definition of political rights
: the rights that involve participation in the establishment or administration of a government and are usually held to entitle the adult citizen to exercise of the franchise, the holding of public office, and other political activities


This would be the right to hold office, or to vote. The right to participate in politics.

Definition of legal right
1: a claim recognized and delimited by law for the purpose of securing it
2: the aggregate of the capacities, powers, liberties, and privileges by which a claim is secured


This would mean the rights on has in making an argument or making your case for or against a claim.

Examples of this, would be the right to face your accuser, or the right to know the evidence against you, or the right to speak or not speak in your defense, or the presumption of innocence.

“Definition of political rights ...”

Your definitions are same as my impressions of the terms’ meaning.

Now, do what I originally asked for:

Explain how Biden’s response was a non sequitur.
