DENVER (AP) — The campaign to use the U.S. Constitution’s “insurrection” clause to bar former President Donald Trump from running for the White House again enters a new phase this week as hearings begin in two states on lawsuits that might end up reaching the U.S. Supreme Court.
A weeklong hearing on one lawsuit to bar Trump from the ballot in Colorado begins Monday, while on Thursday oral arguments are scheduled before the Minnesota Supreme Court on an effort to kick the Republican former president off the ballot in that state.
Trump might be terrible, but angering and disenfranchising half a country sounds like a bad idea.
Us not doing the right thing because of fear of repercussion is exactly what they’re trying to accomplish.
A minor but important part of the “we do these things not because they are easy” list.
Pretending that we can go back to “the way it was” is a worse idea.
RepublicanAmerican Fascist politics is now “do whatever you want and dare the world to stop you.” Every time they’re not stopped, they gain more power, and they get the message that they can do whatever they want again, except next time, a little worse. Lather, rinse, repeat.We can’t go back the way we came. The only way out is through.
Not even half, just a very loud, violent, ignorant minority.
Yeah, you don’t want to hurt a dangerous criminal’s feeling. At worst he only get to be the first US dictator.
There’s only so many schools they can shoot up.
