Democrats 2024 E******n i**********e (Page 2): I believe it will come down to a nuanced legal argument (omission, commission, legal duty vs. moral duty, intent, etc).

Or, in a more common sense manner one could just summarize his words, heard on TV's everywhere, when speaking to the assembling throng; "Let's march down to the capital to overturn the e******n. I'll be right there with you "
Oh, and while we're at it, let's hang the vice president for disagreeing with me.

I believe it will come down to a nuanced legal argument (omission, commission, legal duty vs. moral duty, intent, etc).

This is illegal as we all know and it is a federal matter of so called i**********n.
Remember that Pelosi and committees have never actually indicted the President let alone convicted him of any i**********n.
These states are thus just interfering with the e******n which is a federal offense.

Section 3 of the 14th Amendment DOESN'T require an indictment or a conviction.

The 14th Amendment is about QUALIFICATIONS!

Because of trump's actions from November 3, 2020 up to and on J****** 6, 2021, trump no longer qualifies to hold any elected office at any level.

Because trump is no longer qualified to hold an elected office, states can and should be barring trump from appearing on their b****ts.

How hard is that for you and other trump cult members to understand?

Actions have consequences!

Who knows what the Supreme Court will say.
But if they put President Trump back on the b****t it will be the final word on the f**e i**********n stories.
After that, any mention of an i**********n will be proof that the person saying it is a complete i***t and a 100% liar.
Thus all media, democrats, RINOs and other clowns ... will be shown, beyond all doubt to be wrong as real Americans already know.

You seem to forget that a Colorado Judge has already declared that there was an i**********n on J****** 6, 2021.

The Colorado Supreme Court upheld that ruling, and declared that trump was an i**********nist!

That section requires engagement.
There is no proof of any engagement.
Of course libs are too stupid and moronic to know that.

The evidence presented by the J****** 6th Committee says that you're lying.

As witnesses are flipping and turning into government witnesses, they're testifying to everything that went on behind the scenes, linking trump to the i**********n.

But you conveniently left out the "aid and comfort" part of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment!

trump aided his fellow i**********nists, when he delayed for over three hours, by not calling them off and asking them to leave the US Capitol Building!

I am simply amazed at your insight and knowledge as to exactly what any insiders who flipped will say and that you have concluded that Trump had a legal duty (not a moral duty) to intervene in those three hours. You should share this knowledge and analysis with the judge. Why even have a trial? You could save the public all that time and money.

The J** 6th select committee had zero semblance of an actual trial where one has the constitutional right to confront and cross examine witnesses and present an affirmative defense. You should know this regardless of how you feel about the pompous orange man.

The peaceful t******r of p***r is founded in the constitution and the p**********l oath of office states:

“……. will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.””

So yes he had a legal duty

Two entirely different actions.

Again, he may be found guilty ultimately but I don’t believe you are more well versed in the legal nuances regarding the omission(s) during that three hours than the many attorneys on both sides of the council table who are probably wrestling with that very issue.

The Constitution. Repeat after me. The Constitution.

Indictment or conviction is not required; wasn't required for previous instances.

You obviously haven't been following the news, and the court filings, or you wouldn't have made your flippant comments!

A hearing is different than a trial!

The place for confronting and cross-examining witnesses is during a trial.

During a police investigation, does a defendant get to confront and cross-examine police witnesses? No, that doesn't happen until the defendant has been indicted!

Yes, there are often depositions taken by the defense, but that happens during the discovery phase, leading up to the trial.

"You should know this."

The J****** 6th Committee uncovered evidence which was turned over to the DOJ.

The DOJ took that evidence and used it to conduct their own investigation(s) into trump and anyone else who was involved in the planning, organizing, and funding of the J****** 6, 2021 I**********n.

Unfortunately for trump, he's been caught with his hand in the cookie jar so to say. He was up to his eyeballs in the planning of the J****** 6, 2021 attempted c**p, and the I**********n.

You said, “ During a police investigation, does a defendant get to confront and cross-examine police witnesses? No, that doesn't happen until the defendant has been indicted!” but you left out one important constitutional consideration. The accused is cloaked in the presumption of innocence until he or she is found guilty.

“You should know this”

When you read biased news accounts and use them as evidence to find someone guilty and state facts not yet in evidence then I may question the validity. You have every right to personally conclude one’s guilt or innocence based on what you know or think you know but to state them as facts rather than your conclusions, well…
