Don't think he'll run, but he'll keep milking whatever popularity he has left. Hoyt Oct 2021 #1

his ego demands it. maxsolomon Oct 2021 #2

I still believe McConnell wants Trump gone. maxsolomon Oct 2021 #73

The media is a money making industry. I had to hunt down those links. SleeplessinSoCal Oct 2021 #75

I don't think he'd win if he ran. Elessar Zappa Oct 2021 #7

No..the states can pass whatever shitty laws they want, doesn't mean they will stand in the courts PortTack Oct 2021 #28

There is nothing in the 14th or 15th Amendments that would prevent what state Repubs are doing. LonePirate Oct 2021 #43

The 15th amendment does address voting..not electors. Here's how electors are chosen PortTack Oct 2021 #47

Saying A is permissible without mentioning B does not always mean B is unconstitutional. LonePirate Oct 2021 #51

Electors are chosen by the party that wins the popular vote PortTack Oct 2021 #53

The electors may be chosen by the state party but the state legislature chooses which set to use. LonePirate Oct 2021 #57
