Good or Bad?

October 31, 2022

Please stop w/the Trump running in 2024 "stuff" because he can't. 14th Amendment Section 3

Trump saying he will run again is just a vehicle for him to grift from his rubes and or hoping to forestall
his upcoming criminal trials and prosecution. The DoJ, the Congress (they can refer things to the DoJ),
Fani Willis in Georgia, and the IRS all have the receipts on Trump and company's crimes. I really doubt
that shits like Mark Meadows, Flynn, Rudy, Stone, and so on will take the fall for Trump


No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or
elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil
or military, under the United States, or under any State, who,
having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or
as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an
executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the
United States, shall have engaged
in insurrection or rebellion against the same . . .

snip

Section Three is once again relevant due to the extraordinary events at the Capitol and the widespread condemnation of the attack as an insurrection by Republicans and Democrats in Congress. This characterization, reinforced by the article of impeachment adopted by the House of Representatives that expressly invoked Section Three, strongly suggests that anyone who “shall have engaged” in that insurrection after having sworn an oath to protect the Constitution is now ineligible to serve.

The attack on Mr. Pelosi is the result of the toxic stew that comes from the right's hate talk

... media, web sites, and politicians. In Ohio JD Vance has been running commercials linking
Tim Ryan to Nancy Pelosi 24/7 as if she some kind of devil. It includes a pictures to make
Speaker Pelosi look ugly too. Fox News also owns this attack big time as do all the other
hate talkers.

We need to crush these bastards in this election.

Good to see that Putin and JD Vance are on the same page.

He said that Zelenskyy should cut a deal with Putin and give him some land. And something to the
effect Biden and Zelenskyy forced Russia to attack Ukraine.


Parma, OH will not be happy w/ J.D..

I think just about all of these debates are useless exerices. They really do not make a difference.

If you already like a candidate then you will think that him or her did a great job and
if you don't like somebody you will be able to find fault with however she or he did and
their thoughts on issues.

And the only thing worse then most of all of the debates is the talking heads telling you
what they think they just said and how you should feel about it.

BTW Fetterman just had a stroke and it took a minute or two to find his words so what?
But the conservative owned media will make it into "The Dean Scream 2.0."


Just remember it will be Roevember in 5 days. Get out and vote and get your friends and their friends out too.

An American Tragedy "Kim Kardashian misses Vegas birthday surprise after private jet couldn't land"

Words fail me and I just can't stop crying after I read the news that Kylie Jenner's private jet could
not land in Las Vegas because of bad weather and so Kim could not go to her > $20,000 birthday
party which had Usher and some other rich celebrity actress who had flown in from NYC to party
with Kim & Kylie. Kim and company had to return her mansion in California and eat take out food.


Do you think DU should set up a go fund me effort to help Kim get over the hurt?

I call straight out bullshit on the national poll that MSNBC/Steve Kornacki just posted

35% of all Americans are most concerned about the economy and inflation ... which favors republicans by
something like 65% of who can handle those problems the best

But only 9% see abortion as their top issue.

Look I am nuttier than a squirrel turd and dumber then a bag of mulch but I don't buy those #s for 1 second.

People please pay no attention to these polls because I think they are being manipulated by the PTB and to
make it seem like the republicans got this in the bag.

Just think how awful the next 1 hour will be for Trump waiting for Merrick Garland's Presser.

Post what ever you want. i want Garland to order that Trump will be picked up for questioning and held
as a National Security risk for selling America's secrets to our enemies.
