    14A arguments have been used to DQ people many times in the past without court proceedings.

    The Supreme Court is obviously going to put Trump on the ballot, but we shouldn’t pretend they have any justified reason to do so.

      Let’s just ignore loopholes because Republicans would never use the same one twice!

      /s

      If we fight fascism with inaction, I do t like our chances.

      We need to do shit not just say “it would happen anyways, nothing we can do”

        We need to do shit

        And what would that be. Let me guess: peacefully protest? Yeah that’s going to surely change their minds.

          I’m afraid this issue (contingent on the expected result of failure of the “justice” system) can no longer be solved peacefully. This is the moment all those 2nd amendment goons were keeping their dicks hard guns ready for, and they’re all in arms to support the domestic enemy. There’s nothing left to do. Get a gun.

                used in an open display of force

                That’s called brandishing, and it’s a federal crime, meaning that it is illegal in every single state.

                Did you mean open carry? That’s not legal in most states if you are participating in a known protest.

                Learn firearm laws before continuing to say more dumb shit and making firearm owners look bad.

                You are considered what most of us gun people call a Fudd.

                  “Illegal protest is illegal” no shit, sherlock. We have a word for you, too.
