      Read your argument above then read this response again. You are arguing that the court is overriding what the constitution says, then arguing that it doesn’t matter that the constitution says nothing on the subject. Your mind is a really weird place.

          Great. The constitution is clear. Super. Tell me where the constitution tells us who decides if an insurrection has occurred. Round round round we go.

          Republicans say Biden must be removed from the ballot because he allows “open borders” allowing the country’s enemies past the gate. Is that insurrection? Are they wrong? How do we know? Who decides?

              Here is an excerpt from the 14th

              shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.

              Does Biden’s “open border policy” allow terrorists or foreign agents to sneak into the country? Is that not aid and comfort to our enemies?

              Sure, you and I think that is a ridiculous interpretation, but will a judge in Mississippi? Do you really believe that the current Republican party wouldn’t abuse the fuck out of this? Republicans started using that rhetoric the moment people started talking about applying it to Trump. This needs to be defined at the Federal level.

              I am not giving them power. In red states, they are the power.

              Multiple times in this conversation you have used the “so what your saying…” construct with nonsense that I definitely did not say or imply. I’m not entertaining that anymore.
