“Proposal from Susan Collins-led group would bar Trump from presidency”

This is the Republican party.

Please explain. How are you going to reform the Republican party?

Liz Cheney Part II


Susan Collins was Liz Cheney before Liz Cheney was Liz Cheney. She was one of the votes against Obamacare repeal.

This is an admission that they have nothing and they need to make something up. Any deal with Chris Coons in it is made of snake urine.

OK, so how was the 14th Amendment prohibition implemented? I assume that every ex U.S. officer who served in the Confederate military and every ex-elected U.S. official who became part of the Confederate government were banned from U.S. office until pardoned by Congress.

I seriously doubt that there was any question of who participated in the Civil War on the side of the South. How is what happened on January 6th in any way comparable? Was President Trump part of the “mob” that “stormed” the sacred halls of the Capitol?

I’m seriously getting tired of this crap from people who hold high office in our government.

This coming from someone who is elected office for life, if she wants it. If she was under the threat of real term limits, I wonder if that would affect her thoughts about President Trump.

We need to all let the RNC know they won’t get a cent from us if this is approved!

“Unconstitutional:
Indeed. Professor Dershowitz was just on NewsMax and said exactly that. He said, short of President Trump being convicted of a felony there is nothing the Congress can do to prevent him from running again.

“These stupid people believe this Bill of Attainder is legal.”

How many states do you think might view it as legal? At least legal enough to find some hack-judge to keep Trump’s name off of state ballots.

They don’t have 67 votes but they have 50. So they pass this crap and Trump runs anyway. How would they stop him?

I am not sure the Supremes would even get involved or if they did I don’t see them supporting the dems on this. Of course if there are 15 SC justices by that time all bets are off.

The dems would have to stack the SC court to defend this boneheaded move.

They think they can do anything and we will swallow it.

Because we swallowed the Kenyanesian Usurpation.

By my reckoning, IF there had been an insurrection, none of the liars, thieves and perverts would be alive today. Ergo, no insurrection.

Next item on the agenda.

Trump endorsed Mccain, Romney, Grahamnesty, a slew of other Bush League Republicans.
They stabbed him the back.
