Maine’s secretary of state said she has received threats in the wake of her decision to remove former President Trump from the ballot under the 14th Amendment on Friday.

“I was prepared for the possibility of threats, and I really appreciate law enforcement and the people around me who have been incredibly supportive of my safety and security,” Shenna Bellows (D) said during a Friday appearance on CNN. “My safety and security is important, so is the safety and security of everyone who works with me and we have received threatening communications.”

“Those are unacceptable,” Bellows continued.

          Besides the fact that we ALL saw that fucking traitor lead an insurrection in an attempt to overthrow democracy in the United States, 14th amendment section 3 does NOT require a conviction.

          If you still support seditionist trump at this point, you are an active enemy of the US and of the majority of Americans.

            You mean the one where he explicitly told them to go home, he called for the national guard, they failed to show up for hours despite being stationed in DC, the rioters did not bring any guns into the building, and security literally waved them in and gave them a tour?

            Man, you’re just ignorant.

              Oh look you hit every single talking point that the traitors gave you to parrot. Too bad the underlying facts have escaped your child-like understanding of the Jan 6th domestic terrorist attack.

              If you had half a brain you could see the signs of an orchestrated assault on America and its constitution.

              But you’re too busy spreading lies and half truths to see reality. The truth is that your fuhrer deserves nothing less than a traitor’s fate for his OBVIOUS attempt to subvert democracy.

                Can you explain any of the ralking points? Seems to me there was no coup, just looking at the facts.

                But I guess the left doesnt like facts and science and reality in general when it suits them

                  Lmfao. Fucking delusional reality denier. Does it hurt trying to reconcile your fantasies with objective reality? Nah, I bet not. You don’t even try to dig your psyche out from under the weight of traitor trump’s bullshit lies. You’re completely lost.

                  And that second sentence, wow that’s hilariously fucking rich coming from the luddites who refuse to recognize the very real and very quickly approaching threat of global climate change.

      Disenfranchised suggests they can’t vote. They can still vote for whomever they want, as long as that person is not disqualified by the Constitution. Gotta be a hundred million Americans over 35 they could write in there.
