McCarthy Agrees: Jan 6 Violent Insurrection

[BackAgain]

Not even a little bit.

There is nothing "legal" about dumping slates of electors you don't like

Again, you are being just stubbornly obtuse.

There is absolutely plenty legal about refusing to accept a fraudulently obtained slate of electors.

But I’ll add this. I fully respect Pence for his decision rejecting the contention that his Constitutional duties included such an action. In fact, I have gone back to re-read the 12th Amendment. I’ve come to believe that his conclusion wasn’t simply a principled one. I think he was right.

This leaves a significant gap. If a state’s election fraud does end up flipping the electoral vote for that State, is the Constitution really powerless to address it?

Problem is...you gotta prove they are fraudulent...and you couldn't then and still can't

And not being able to do so makes it illegal and a coup

I don’t know that it was illegal. Another reason for Pence to have declined to do what some urged him to do.

But no. That doesn’t make “it” illegal. And you’re still talking out of your ignorant ass about a coup. There was no coup. Words have meaning. Sorry to have to break that to you, Letch.

 

[Lesh]

I don’t know that it was illegal.

There's lots that you don't know.

I KNOW you can't just discard slates of electors because you don't like the results...and trying to do so is obstructing the peaceful transfer of power...a coup attempt

There is an infinite amount that you don’t know, Letch. Nobody said anything about just discarding a slate of electors “because you don’t like them.” You imbecile. That’s your bullshit.

If anybody “tried” any such thing, it might be illegal. (Albeit still not a “coup”.) Here, nobody did try any such thing. So it wasn’t a crime at all, much less a coup. You still don’t know that words have meaning. You remain an idiot.

So we can't fix things when there is obvious voter fraud?

Who gets to determine that?

The loser?

Were it "obvious" then the courts would have ruled in Trump's favor. They didn't. Over 60 times

 

[WTH_Progs?]

Insurrection defined: Using COVID as an excuse to appoint Xiden with 81 million supposed entrees just enough to put him over the top in swing states. There was an insurrection alright, as usual the Demonics point into the other direction.

They didn't look at the evidence because they didn't want to be George Floyded.

You missed the riots?

You missed the riots?

What riots????? Those were mostly peaceful protests.

If they were peaceful, I'd hate to see violent!

Steal an election, expect a protest.

Thanks. Keep up the good work of informing everyone who are all the RINOS not to be reelected!

LOL...how'd it go?

Rep. Kevin McCarthy Finally Admits Capitol Riot Was ‘Violent Insurrection’

The House GOP leader still defended the Republican National Committee’s suggestion that the events of Jan. 6, 2021, were “legitimate political discourse.”

www.huffpost.com

WASHINGTON — House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy said Wednesday he agreed that the Capitol riot was a violent insurrection, the clearest answer he’s given after dodging the issue this week.
Asked Wednesday about Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-Ky.) description of the riot as a “violent insurrection,” McCarthy said he agreed.


“No one would disagree with that,” McCarthy told reporters.

So yea Trumpers. Your own people are telling you it was indeed a violent insurrection...and seditious to boot.

McCarthy is not a Trumper, idiot.

 

[candycorn]

McCarthy is not a Trumper, idiot.

How'd it taste...now that someone who thinks 1/6 was a violent insurrection is now the Speaker of the House?
