re: Great John Kennedy statement on vote to acquit former President Donald Trump

quote:I used to think this guy was someones crazy uncle. I learned when he was questioning ACB that he has a brilliant legal mind.
WASHINGTON—Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) released the following statement upon voting “not guilty” in the impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump:
“My job as a senator and juror in an impeachment trial is not—NOT—to defend, excuse or explain anyone’s behavior—not the Capitol rioters’, not the Democrats’, not the president’s. My job is to evaluate the evidence.
“In my judgment, impeachment is not supposed to be political sport where one party seeks advantage over the other at the expense of the country.
“The merits of the Democrats’ case were not even close.
“The Democrats afforded the president no due process in the House—no hearings, no investigation, no right to be heard, no defense. No one is above the law, but no one is beneath it.
“Second, the president is no longer the president. We were asked to impeach a guy in Florida. The Democrats never proved jurisdiction.
“Third, the Democrats charged President Trump with inciting a riot through his speech, but then the Democrats introduced evidence that the riot was pre-planned. The Democrats disproved their own case.
“There are one or two things I think we can all agree on: The nut jobs who violated the Capitol on Jan. 6 should be prosecuted and jailed. There can be no justice without order. Political violence is wrong. Always. It was wrong on Jan. 6, and it was wrong during the riots this summer.
“Finally, both parties should be big tents, but those big tents should each have a big door to kick out extremists who exist on both sides.”
This statement is as good as it gets.
How old is he? He should run for President. His Campaign could be called, common fricking sense for America

Cassidy isn’t “a nice guy.” He is a pretentious prick who looks down on Trump voters and wants to be praised by the media for being “bipartisan.” He’s a narcissist at heart who just stabbed the whole state in its back for his ego.

I said that Rispone and Abraham were shite candidates...you disagreed.
Abraham was a good candidate. His problem was that he didn’t have enough money to compete.
Rispone has enough money to win and had the potential. Problem is that he ran and acted like a bad candidate and we all paid for it dearly.

I said the state level GOP needed to be more hands on or JBE was going to win the election...you disagreed.
The state GOP in Louisiana has nowhere near the power you think they do.
If they did have that power, Scott Angelle and Jay Dardenne would’ve never been allowed to go scorched earth on David Vitter to the level and intensity they did.
The LA GOP is by design, one of the weakest state political organizations in the country.

I said that we needed to support the welder because Cassidy couldn’t be trusted...you disagreed.
Who?
Some guy who only got 1% of the vote and I’ve never heard of before until your very post?

As for Cassidy’s future, what is it? To frick over his constituents until he eventually eases into some shady money on the back end?
And there’s nothing we can do about him until 2026 besides convincing the US Senate to expel and uh, good luck with that.

BLM, Antifa and the left rioted for as long as they did all summer long because they have support from institutional establishment powers who saw them as their foot soldiers against a populist Presidency they're trying to remove.
Yup and when they started hurting in the polls, racial equality was suddenly found and all the riots and protests magically stopped overnight....

Trump is a globalist. You guys can keep pretending the deep state is the Illuminati, but they're actually just the wealthy looking out for themselves, at your expense. Trump included or he would have told you the truth, instead of leading you down rabbit holes.

See if you can calculate the number of years it will take him to recapture the billion + he lost in net worth from serving in office. And add the 4 years in salary he gave away too.
Use a calculator if the problem is too complex for you to analyze.
