Chickenshit McConnel can’t ever go back to his home state of KY.
He not only through Trump under the bus and keeps on stomping in him, he through the 60% of Kentuckians that voted for him. Stat tuned about this Judas SOB. He will be censored by the KY GOP and kicked off his position as House Minority Leader.

- Pass legislation under the 14th amendment Section 5 defining insurrection as storming, or causing to storm the Capitol Building.
- Pass a resolution declaring that Donald Trump caused rioters to storm the Capitol Building.
p.s. I meant to include this:
If Congress tried to pass a law that makes President Trump guilty of insurrection on January 5, wouldn't that be an unconstitutional ex post facto law?
Wouldn't Congress have to pass a law defining insurrection or rebellion under the 14th amendment PRIOR to someone engaging in that act, in order for it to be Constitutional?
I don't see how Congress can do anything to find Trump guilty under the 14th amendment without other enforcement laws already on the books.

I wonder what the public response would be if an Asian country attacked Pearl Harbor this year? You think we would all come together?

I didn’t say that, don’t put words in my mouth.
I said he has a different plan than running for President, that’s all. I actually listen to what Trump says rather than put my own wishes into his words.

Doesn’t stop Trump from participating in America First activities. We still have the right to peacefully assemble. Trust me, none of us want to set foot in corrupt DC. We will fight at the state and local levels. Our voices WILL be heard.

You’ve been smoking a bit too much.
“Just keep right on whistling in the wind and making sh*t up.”
I’ve been listening to Trump since long before he ran for President and I still listen. You’re just claiming he’ll do what YOU want. Trump does what HE wants, I suggest you listen to him more carefully.

Wow. ABC picked this story up. Bannon and Raheem will drill doen on it tomorrow for sure.
To: Alas Babylon!
Furthermore, Section 5 of the 14th amendment says "The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article." Is there any such enforcement legislation already passed by Congress?
Democrats can't just point to the 14th amendment because it is too vague in defining exactly what constitutes insurrection or rebellion and how it is to be enforced.
Any legislation that Congress now passes to do so would be ex post facto to January 6th, and there can't be used against President Trump.
Congress is stuck.

McConnell has previously helped the Democrats defeat conservatives in Senate races in IN, MO, AL, DE, NV, so this is nothing new.

Don’t trust the Courts. They will rubber stamp anything these Stalinists put before them. The Chinese have the goods on all of them.

It’s unconstitutional and will get thrown out of court
Whose court? What court? Traffic Court. Tennis Court. Certainly not one of America's, well known for their unbiased justice, courts.

The article is wrong. It is unconstitutional to punish someone with legislation.

He is Senate Minority Leader and will be for the rest of his term, he presents the majority view of GOP Senators.

Perverse though it sounds, I’m enjoying all this nonsense in DC.
It’s like he’s still in the whitehouse!
