In my book, supporting the Constitution is preserving, protecting and defending the Constitution, DF.

If it was Trump's attorney who "said" it (in a pleading), that is a judicial admission by Trump.


It’s a procedural argument and factual statement by Trumps attorney. They can fix the pleading and move forward. There is no admission there. Good Lord.

You may not be Hank. He would never make such a simple mistake.

No, he is arguing that he did not "swear an oath" to do so, which is the trigger under the Insurrection Clause. He could easily argue that he "felt a duty" to do so, without having "sworn an oath" to do so.

Perhaps a subtle distinction, but a correct one.

He's 100% Hank.

Hank makes tons of simple mistakes.

His terminal TDS compels it.

If this were a Democrat making this sort of argument, you would be praising its judicial brilliance to the heavens, you partisan fking hack....
