Trump was told in no uncertain terms by one of his lawyers to hand back the stolen documents at Mar A Lardo. Yet after that he still kept some so why hasn’t he been behind bars pending trial?
Crooked Trump said he never took the oath to the Constitution, he really is an illegitimate dictator and hater of American values. Republicans love it.
Donald Trump Says He Never Swore Oath ‘To Support The Constitution’
Donald Trump’s legal team has argued against an attempt to have him thrown off the presidential ballot in Colorado in 2024 by suggesting the wording of the U.S. Constitution’s insurrection clause does not apply to him.
The Colorado Supreme Court agreed to hear an appeal on a lawsuit filed by the Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) watchdog group and Republican figures, who argue that Trump’s actions on January 6, 2021, violated Section Three of the 14th Amendment and therefore he should be prohibited from running for the White House again.
The section states a person who “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” after taking an oath of office to support the Constitution should be barred from running for office again. In a previous ruling, lower court judge Sarah B. Wallace said that Trump had “engaged in insurrection” on January 6, the day of the Capitol riot, but should remain on Colorado’s primary ballot as the wording of the 14th Amendment does not specifically mention preventing people from running for the presidency.
In their appeal against the Colorado lawsuit, Trump’s lawyers reiterated that the wording of Section Three does not apply to people running for president and that Trump technically did not swear an oath to “support” the Constitution. Instead, during his January 2017 inauguration, Trump swore to “preserve, protect and defend” the Constitution during his role as president.
“The framers excluded the office of President from Section Three purposefully,” Trump’s legal team wrote. “Section Three does not apply, because the presidency is not an office ‘under the United States,’ the president is not an ‘officer of the United States,’ and President Trump did not take an oath ‘to support the Constitution of the United States.’”
to think that people still don’t understand and believe this is not a joke, what you’re looking at is real and will happen if this IDIOT IS ELECTED Believe It! This will happen. Don’t let this Con Psychopath ruin your lives, Please check out his rap sheet for the last time he was in office, you won’t make the same mistake.
Liz Chaney’s book states McCarthy claimed Trump was depressed, stopped eating after his 2020 loss. McCarthy went to Mar a Lago to see Trump, because Trump wasn’t eating. Can’t make this stuff up.
I read a comment somewhere where a person said he thought it would be fine for a strong man to take over as long as they could get the “right” people back in control.
A few of Traitor Trump’s former lawyers (and fellow criminals) have plea-bargained already, and will testify against Traitor Trump. I have to wonder how many more will follow, and how many of the current crop of shysters will eventually flip on Traitor Trump.
Truly, the Republican Party is no more… though many would argue the GOP has been dead for many decades now, but are loathe to change their names to the much more obvious and accurate designation of GOF — Grand Old Fascists.
