It’s amazing how scared of Trump the Democrats really are.

They know he won in a landslide. That’s the only explanation for their panic.

Besides, at 78 years old, I’m doubting the preswill even want to run again.

Maybe DJTjr

14th Amendment - Section 3. No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any state legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any state, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

I read that as Congress can only remove someone from the NO-FLY list, not put them on it. If that is a correct read, then Trump would have to be found guilty in a Court of Law for insurrection. And the odds of that are zero.

“It won’t. The Dems never get bit by anything. They dominate the government, they own the media, they own the courts, and the Repukes are afraid of them.”

What you posted is a frighteningly accurate and profound assessment of our national predicament.

Welcome to Stalinist America, folks. The Dems are making no secret of their full and total embrace of authoritarianism and their ending of free elections.

I can’t understand why they are so afraid of Trump running again when he couldn’t defeat their demented old fool even though he drew millions to his rallies while the fool only drew about 500.

Trump’s biggest fault is that he didn’t ruin the ‘Rats, GOPee and Deep State enough.

The SCOTUS is going to have to make a ruling at some point. This entire thing is
already a bill of attainder.

Most Republicans are afraid of their own shadow

Now class, let’s say it one more time.

A Bill of Attainder is illegal under the Constitution.

President Trump doesn’t like to be unfairly attacked or told what he can and cannot do, especially when the authoritarians doing it would be pissing on the Constitution and attacking democracy at the same time. I think these Brownshirt politicians are almost guaranteeing that Trump will run again. If Biden can run at that age while seeming senile and elderly, I don’t see why Trump can’t if he doesn’t have a major decline in health in the meanwhile.

It’s unconstitutional and would get laughed out of court

The problem is that when Pres. Trump is acquitted, he will have been found not guilty of the very thing they want to use as a basis for barring him from office; a clear Bill of Attainder.

Biden was a tool. Senile to boot, as you point out.

I don’t disagree with you about the president. He does fight stupidity wherever the dems show it.

On the other hand, I think he has a big heart for his family and his business. I would not fault him at all for choosing that route over the unjust, vindictive 4 years he has just suffered.

Melania will be a huge voice in that regard,I think.

The 14th Amendment would cover a ton of Democrats and we have terabytes of video as proof of insurrection

This suggests Democrats think there could be a free & fair election in 2024.

But I have seen no attempts at Election Reform to protect the 2022 or 2024 elections from the Epic Election Fraud we saw in 2020.

Democrats are really afraid of Trump’s leadership of the MAGA movement. There’s nothing they won’t do to silence Trump. I can’t wait until he starts his rallies again.
