I am not advocating for voting Nikki. Quite the opposite, I am happy she can't win the primaries, as she would be more likely to win the election than Trump.

If Biden had even half of a functioning brain, which is a stretch and /or if he cared about democracy he should come out immediately and make a statement in support of the 9-0 SCOTUS beatdown of  the desperate attempts at lawfare to prevent voters from exercising their constitutional rights to vote for the candidate of his choosing. But Biden isn't  smart and by all accounts could care less about voters and their rights as long as they vote for him as he persecutes his political rivals in fear of losing at the ballot box! There is no bigger threat to democracy than the mentally unfit Biden.

Changing argument now...

 

I have no doubt they are eager to make "something" up. 😀

 

In Colorado, a judge decided he was an insurectionist. Don't they need a court decision in Texas too?

No, I am not changing the argument.

 

Do you not think you could find a judge to decide Biden is an insurrectionist? 

 

If a Colorado judge decided Trump was an insurrectionist, why do they not just prosecute him for it?

She won the govt employee vote!

They arent part of Trumps plan in Making America Great Again. 
Bloated Federals Govt cost the Taxpayers. Imop

 

But the GOP electorate in D.C. — where Republicans make up just 5 percent of registered voters — is hardly representative of the conservative base found in most other parts of the country.

For political zealots on all sides, everyone else's candidates are fascists, dictators, and probably Hitler reborn.  And traitors to boot. 

When you understand that? Then you stop getting caught up in the propaganda, the spin, the hyperbole, and realize that most of those aspiring to power are little more than charlatans seeking to wield power for the sake of power.  These are not the people anybody really wants to be running their countries - and yet - fools keep voting the same slime-balls into office regardless of how bad they detest them.  And you get what you deserve.  The rest of us, unfortunately, get the tyranny of the majority.

I really don't get this 'they're all as bad as each other' viewpoint when Trump is demonstrably worse in every way. It wasn't Biden who has been saying the election was rigged for the last 3 years; it isn't Biden who has been fined $454 million for business fraud; it isn't Biden who has been convicted of sexual abuse and it wasn't Biden who defrauded his own charity.

 

All of these FACTS (and many, many more) are laid solely at the feet of Trump and goes to the very essence of the difference between the two candidates; Biden may be getting on a bit (about the worst criticism Trumpers can say about him) but Trump is just a nasty piece of work with the morals of an alley cat.

 

And I don't need the usual to debate any of these facts. I know I won't change your mind because if facts logic or appeals of decency influnced you, you wouldn't be a Trump fan in the first place.

No.

Trump is different.

The extent of his threat to the world is not hyperbole.

Why? Do you have anything that supports that? Is it just because he's fat and eats at McDonald's or because he wants the border closed, Israel safe, NATO to pay their share and energy independence for the United States?

What SCOTUS didn't address was the Colorado ruling that Citizen (not president) Trump is an insurrectionist. So as it stands now, Trump on top of being an adjudicated rapist is  also an adjudicated insurrectionist. Of course his maga cult fans won't budge, even as it becomes clearer and clearer that Trump suffers from advanced dementia.

Thank you Dr J for that medical summary.

They are just FACTS to the left. I think it a FACT that Biden has been a despicable POC on the public teat and on the take his whole career, and I do not like his policies. That said, it I liked Biden's policies better than Trump's policies, I would vote for Biden, I don't,

IMO it's a situation where the SC has given Trump half the pie. The 14th amendment was always a problematic case anyway.

 

The other half of the pie will go to Jack Smith, when the SC tosses out Trump's claim of presidential immunity.

 

Of course, if the SC was to affirm immunity, Biden could order Trump to be assassinated. Or every right-wing judge on SCOTUS, for that matter.

Typically, when the SCOTUS rules against Biden because he tries to do something unconstitutional, he just tries to do it anyway.

In support of and the furtherance of democracy....why would he? He's cries and moans about other SCOTUS decisions. Maybe you don't advocate for free and fair democracy much like Biden? Point is, Biden criticizes the court rulings frequently, ie; Roe v Wade, and others, wait and see if he opens his big stupid mouth about the recent 9-0 Colorado beatdown but I suspect he won't because he can't since his stench is all over the Colorado humiliation.

Like it or not, SCOTUS is the supreme arbiter of law in America. This is just one of the many cases filed concerning Trump, so it doesn't make sense to think this is the end of it.

He is a racist of epic proportions but I am betting he forgot all his racist comments in his 50 or so racist years in politics. It's hurting him now, as new polls show Trump garnering  large increases in black and hispanic support. Maybe Arab or others too after 100K unassigned voters tabled in the recent MI primary. BIG PROBLEM for Biden in Michigan now.

While your questions are clear, they were both political. 

1. Q: Why should any POTUS get involved in supporting, or not supporting, a SCOTUS decision?

   A: The President should not, that's why Biden's commenting on a Supreme Court case is so despicable. 

 

2. Q: Isn't the SCOTUS supposed to be independent?

    A: Absolutely, that's why when you see Chuck Schumer et al attacking the Court and the Justices publicly, they should be taken to task for their hideous behavior.

Why not keep him on the ballot and let, you know, the people decide?

 

Do you want the election to depend on who can hire the best lawfare practitioners?

 

What do you have against democracy?

It would have been easier to answer thus;

2. Q: Isn't the SCOTUS supposed to be independent?

Ridiculous false equivalence. The 14th Amendment Section 3 only concerns insurrection. Texas could have done nothing.

(Of course, you know it already

and don't forget, it also DOES NOT concern Presidents, and maybe u r unaware who was POTUS, or who wasn't perhaps? At any rate, the 14th Sec 3 applies NOT to the president.

Trump is more American than KFC. Biden is the traitor. Open borders, giving billions overseas.

 

America is bourbon,burgers, blues, fried chicken, loud confident talkers and Trump.

 

Biden is Irish. About as useless as an ashtray on a motorbike.
