Pages 11 and 12 are in reversed order.............
Trump may be making a mistake by declaring himself NOT to be the president.
I would argue that he is in fact the President. He won a majority of votes on election day, and as (see tagline) a legitimate President in exile, he deserves to have his case heard before the Chief Justice.
This is great. No Can Do. Hey Democrats and RINO’s, you see he’s no longer President, so go screw yourself...
The Democrats’ case seems to boil down to “We hate that guy”.
Can some legal beagle dumb this down a little? Asking for a friend.
Currently, the US Constitution is dead because there is no one in a legal authoritative position willing to enforce it. NO ONE!
Too bad the President could not have engaged competent attorneys on November 4, 2020, or even before to prevent the mail-in ballot farce - but these guys have done a masterful job, and even structured something which I did not think possible - grounds for an appeal using the bill of attainder clause.
Nicely done, Messrs. Castor and Schoen.
This is a very good defense especially pages 12 and 13.
The yearly impeachment. I wonder what next year’s will be about.
This will go to the supreme court and then we will see if the Roberts court is as bad as it appears.
The Roberts court failed when it refuse the TX, et al case and the congressman (Web?) case.
This whole thing should be laid at the feet of the US Supreme Court. ALL OF IT.
Too bad the senate can’t be charged with malicious prosecution.
The only reason for Pelousy to have rushed that farce of an “impeachment” through is that she somehow expected him to actually be sworn in for a second term. And that the process by which this was to have been accomplished would have made conviction in the Senate a probability.
So Trump backed down. CheckMate
Schoen and Pastor accurately and clearly pointed out all the grotesque un-Constitutional flaws in the absurdity of the ex post facto “impeachment” of a private citizen.
Trump should be the President. The vote in the Senate was flawed, and as they said, did not take into account the fatal errors in the State certificates. But they voted and Roberts swore in the Imposter.
That now has to be reversed by an examination of the evidence. This is the forum to do it.
I kinda wish his response was three letters - GFY.
The appropriate answer would have been G.F.Y. or go fornicate with yourself.
There won’t be a trial.
Schumer doesn’t want one...in spite of his public pronouncements. Those pronouncements are all show.
Pelosi dropped a hot potato in his lap...in a fit of passion...and now he’s left holding the bag.
And looking for a way out.
And some stupid Republican is going to give him one with a Censure/14th Amendment bill.
Thoughtful Americans should realize that the fact that Roberts refuses to preside over this sham is very,very noteworthy indeed.
This is my non lawyer opinion.
The senate does not have jurisdiction because a private citizen can't be impeached. There is no need to respectfully request anything. Asking to dismiss is giving legitimacy to the charges. Illegal charges do not need to be dismissed. They should demand this illegal impeachment be stopped. Donald Trump has not been legally charged with any crime and this matter should be considered closed.
President Trump in my opinion, if he has any desire, should publicly announce before this sham trial that is is formally running for President in 2024 and his campaign starts today. That will shut them up quick.
I learned something new here. The Senate rules dont allow multiple arguments in one article. Otherwise, I am not a lawyer, and I knew all of these other defenses applied. The Dims are steamrolling anyway.
THANKS. BUMP TO THE TOP!
