    Right, well, I don’t consider Jan. 6 an insurrection. Trump was never even charged with insurrection. Matter of fact nobody was. The Dems just used that word hoping they could get a conviction on it. That way, he wouldn’t be able to run for office again.

      Lmfao.

      Trump was never even charged with insurrection

      So you think Al Capone was just a normal dude who forgot to pay his taxes? A Supreme Court also has found Trump guilty of insurrection.

      The Dems just used that word hoping they could get a conviction on it

      So now you think the justice department is controlled by the dems? If the dems have control over the justice department, why wouldn’t they charge Trump with more crimes?

      That way, he wouldn’t be able to run for office again.

      That’s not how the 14th Amendment works, Congress would first have to pass a law applying the 14th Amendment to Trump, it’s not automatically applying. Did you not read the Supreme Court opinions?
