Constitutionally Speaking, Trump Is Toast

[skews13]

Article II of the Constitution pertains to the Office of the President and Executive Powers. It makes clear the fact that the Presidency is indeed an Office.

Section 1: “The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years...”

Yep. The OFFICE of the Presidency. That makes him an OFFICER.

Now the Roberts court will be forced to rule for, or against the Constitution. If they rule against, then they are clearly saying the Presidency is not an office, AND saying they can inject themselves into the states decisions on federal elections.

Choose wisely John. The court won't always be conservative, and once it flips, your decision will have consequences.

 

[ColonelAngus]

The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.

Biden should be off all ballots.

 

[Nostra]

Constitutionally speaking, he hasn't been found guilty of insurrection.

THREAD FAIL.

Constitutionally, the clause in the 14th Amendment was in response to the Civil War to prevent Confederate participants from being eligible for president.

How does this 150+ year old language apply to Trump's situation, where no charges of "insurrection" have been able to stick?

Astonishingly idiotic, baseless garbage.

Even for the DK.

Fortunately for Trump, he has a Supreme Court dominated by corrupt, dishonest conservative ideologues who will once again ignore precedent and the Constitution.

The Supreme Court is not corrupt.

The Biden Crime Family is CORRUPT.

When was the last time a state SOS and a state civil court judge kicked the leading Presidential candidate off the ballot, Simp?

Exactly. Which is why the CO lower court's ruling was so odd and so easily reversed.

Unfortunately for Trump it doesn't say any of that, and you have to make it up out-of thin air. That's not going to cut it.

It sounds like you still need to read the colorado court ruling. He participated in insurrection.

It does say the only entity given the power to enforce the 14th is Congress, Simp.

A debunked lie. I would say I am surprised you are still repeating it, after being embarrassed so badly.

But you are a low IQ cultist, after all. You freaks think saying something makes it true

Where was it debunked? By who? What other entity does the 14th give enforcement power to, moron?

Here, let me help you out Zippy....here is the enforcement clause of the 14th.

Section 5​

The Congress shall have the power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.

That is the crux of the issue ......~S~

 

[Chillicothe]

Constitutionally speaking, he hasn't been found guilty of insurrection.

Well, does the Constitution define "who" it is that must find him to be guilty?
Is it State Secretaries of State?
The Senate?
The House?
Any other entity that would qualify for finding a President "guilty of insurrection"?

Right now, legally....we have to SOS's declaring him guilty.
Is that enough?

The letter of the law says yes.
