Thank you for that link. I'm not sure their claim is historically accurate though.

That this statement:
is absurd.
Hence my quote that "it seems arbitrary and capricious." I don't really know how that is in conflict with ACB quote that you think I disagree with.
Either one of us is confused or the initial post I responded to meant to say "shouldn't" be able to keep whomever they want off their ballot.

You're absolutely right, it should've been "shouldn't" indeed. I agree with ACB in this case.
When looking at the whole quote:
quote:
ACB made a good point that one state should not be able to determine the eligibility for a candidate to run for national office. The problem seems to that Colorado, as a sovereign state, should be able to keep whomever they want off their ballot. Maybe it's time for actual, national elections that are regulated by the federal government when federal offices are concerned.
I think it's clear that I agree with her, and that maybe we need more federal regulation to keep things like what's happening in Colorado, and also things like what happened in Pennsylvania in 2020 where they changed the voting laws in the state without going through the proper process, from happening again.

An insurrection is what happened in Afghanistan after your retarded hero, Biden, pulled out and got innocent troops and civilians killed the process
January 6th was just some people doing some things

So your position is Trump did not "engage in insurrection"? That's a fair position, but as far as I could tell it didn't even come up in oral arguments today. However the Court decides to put an end to this, I think Thomas will write a concurrence trying to reverse the CO court finding of an insurrection.
Here is the problem- just because it was not argued does not mean it is not important
And... for any of this to even get from A to B there had to be a finding of insurrection
So, how did they get that? Under what authority, etc
I think the court tries to write the shortest simplest opinion that puts this to rest maybe even saying something as simple as it is a federal question

But that doesn't address whether Trump could be found to have "engaged in insurrection" for purposes of the 14th Amendment. The whole point of Section 3 is to disqualify oath breaking insurrectionists even if they have not, or cannot, be convicted.
God, you are too stupid to be in this thread

Yes. 6 months after Trump was acquitted of impeachment for inciting an insurrection, Congress nearly unanimously affirmed a factual finding that the Jan. 6 rioters were a "mob of insurrectionists."

I have never, ever said anything positive about any member of the Biden family, and certainly never considered him a hero.
I'm really just interested in this 14th Amendment stuff as an academic exercise.

Apparently it interested enough to understand it.

"mob of insurrectionists."
They’re so committed.
Oh well, at least it sounds scary.
