Re: Bidenflation and Shortage thread

Well, not according to houndie. He's pretty clear that all these delaying tactics couldn't be done by an innocent person, ergo, he must be guilty.

So now people aren't innocent until proven guilty, they're innocent until they do anything other than a speedy trial, and then we just know they're guilty as sin just for delaying a trial? Come on, people delay trials all the time for a variety of reasons. Going to trial is basically rolling the di...

800 million quarterly profit- that’s it? Last year they had net sales of 20.1 billion, 3.4 billion profit (thats an avg of 850 million per quarter), which was down 1% from the year before. Inflation adjusted thats a bigger drop. And 17% profit margin isn’t tbat big. https://s29.q4cdn.com/993087495/...

Or Congress or a court of law. Congress already decided it wasn’t. That's not technically what they decided. He got impeached (charged) by the House with what basically amounted to insurrection, and the Senate voted not to convict him of it. But impeachments are criminal trials, they are political ...

The way forward is clear. Charge someone with a crime under 18 USC 2383. Get a conviction. Boom, can't hold office. It's all right there. And yet, we refuse to do that with Trump. Crazy times.

I have a hard time seeing it as a toss-up. Do you really think the SCOTUS will go the route of all 50 states deciding on their own whether a person stays on the ballot or not? That seems unlikely.

No, no, no. Read the opinion from the court. They clearly say existing code, passed by Congress, gives the legal pathway to enact Section 3. I bolded the end of it.
