it is plain bad faith to pretend that the Senate was voting on the facts of whether Trump violated the 14th amendment. the man could have handed the nuclear football to Putin on the Senate floor and Republican senators would still vote not guilty. that the Senate acquitted him is entirely irrelevant to the question of whether he broke the law or is unfit to serve.
the electorate has demonstrated that they can't be trusted to make decisions in line with the rule of law or in the best interests of the country itself. if it's anti democratic to say "no you can't elect a dead gorilla as president, I don't care how many of you think it's a hilarious meme," then I guess I'm anti democratic. the fact that they're voting for him despite his hundreds of crimes shows they're not voting in good faith, they're voting for revenge.
Really?
How'd Biden manage to win with such an untrustworthy electorate? Why didn't this electorate deliver the "red tsunami" everyone swore they were heading for last year?
So, you're taking a bold stance against allowing people to vote if you don't like their reasoning?
@mcfate I'm taking the bold stance of not allowing people to vote for criminals and self-avowed dictators, yes.
That's not what you said, and Rethuglicans say Biden's a criminal and a dictator.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Here's what you said: "the electorate has demonstrated that they can't be trusted to make decisions in line with the rule of law or in the best interests of the country itself."
"The electorate" is everyone who's registered to vote. Not just the ones who make you upset.
@mcfate the electorate is also the people who are poised to nominate Trump for another term, and the people currently giving him the lead over Biden in polls. maybe you feel comfortable rolling the dice on those people coming to their senses in the actual election but I don't. and if you have such a problem with my posts, you don't have to read them.
