  1. He can't run up stairs but he has the economy humming.

  2. “We all were here. We saw what happened. It was a violent insurrection for the purpose of trying to prevent the peaceful transfer of power after a legitimately certified election, from one administration to the next. That’s what it was,” McConnell, R-Ky., told reporters at his weekly news conference.

  4. @KirbiasLawless1984 “We all were here. We saw what happened. It was a violent insurrection for the purpose of trying to prevent the peaceful transfer of power after a legitimately certified election, from one administration to the next. That’s what it was,” - Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.

  5. The Constitution says they can.

  6.  @kimobrien.  Actually, Colorado had a trial. Trump chose not to attend. Anyway, it was not a criminal proceeding. Not being qualified to run for office is not a violation of rights. Millions of people are not qualified to run.

  7. It's not on the books; it's in the Constitution.

  8. Read the 14th Amendment. it is a no brainer. The wording is very clear.

  9. He failed the grand jury test.

  10. Why not just get rid of Trump and make it easy for us? We are pushing square pegs into round holes all for one man. Ridiculous.

  12.  @RealWorldGames  The Judiciary Committee is judiciary in name only. It is Legislative Branch.

  14.  @danstory4286  The word "conviction" isn't in the 14th Amendment. Historically, they used that Amendment to keep Confederate sympathizers out of the government, which they did. They didn't have trials.

  16. You left out the corrupt Supreme Court aspect. Three of them lied during their confirmation hearings. Thomas is openly on the take for years , receiving millions in freebies from billionaire donors.

  17.  @deborahfreedman333  Having the Supreme Court pick and choose it's way through the Constitution is a bit scary. We would have a dictatorship run by nine people.

  18.  @jackstuder1930  Why did Trump egg them on? Why did he set up a "protest" two months after he lost the election? Who protests a lost election? His entire field of lawyers have stated Trump was fully aware he had lost the election from day one. The protest was set up to sooth his bruised ego.

  20.  @jackstuder1930  Nice try. “We all were here. We saw what happened. It was a violent insurrection for the purpose of trying to prevent the peaceful transfer of power after a legitimately certified election, from one administration to the next. That’s what it was,” McConnell, R-Ky., told reporters at his weekly news conference.

  21.  @jackstuder1930  Yes, they lied under oath opening themselves up for indictment. 90% of the testimony was by Republicans.

  22. ??? You didn't see the mayhem in front of the capital? You must wear horse blinders. Regardless, the courts have ruled Trump can be sued by all those injured and families of dead police officers. He'd better get his wallet out because this is going to be big.

  23. Trump says he never took an oath protecting the Constitution. What does this so-called "expert" think about that?

  24.  @kimobrien.  Clan members didn't start insurrections.

  26.  @kimobrien.  Qualifications for office are not "life, liberty or property". Millions of people don't qualify for office . Any 34 year-old does not qualify. Arnold Swartzenegger, former governor of California, doesn't qualify.

  29. Read the 14th Amendment. It say nothing regarding "reprimands".

  30. Seems all Trump is experience at doing is committing crimes. 91 crimes? Give me a break.

  31.  @skoolwheelz9042  What did Trump do to the economy last time? Big tax cuts for the wealthy was the economic plan. Whopping deficits. If they get in they will do it again. They even said so.

  32.  @gloriamadaffari5404  Making up excuses for Trump? He lost the election and has been making a fool of himself and you for over three years. His former lawyers will testify at his trial that he knew he had lost the election since day one. All this has been one big scam. Trump was president when the economy went haywire. Why are you blaming Biden? Why is it whenever Republicans ruin the economy (they do it every time) everyone expects the Democrats to fix it overnight?

  33.  @andreasaunders197  At least eight people have been disqualified from holding office using the 14th Amendment. Congress was not involved. We are not at war with Iran so they are not our enemy. Biden didn't cause an insurrection. How would red states justify removing him from the ballot?

  35.  @RealWorldGames  We weren't talking about impeachment. Trump was impeached over three years ago. Impeachment is a political act, not judiciary. No jeopardy was involved.

  36.  @RealWorldGames  You don't need to go to trial to find an insurrection any more than you have to go to trial to get a speeding ticket. It is what it is. Anyway, Trump also said he never broke his oath of office because he never took an oath defending the Constitution. That alone is disqualifying.

  37.  @RealWorldGames  Remember the congressional hearings all last summer? Remember watching the attack on live on TV? If it wasn't an insurrection, explain to me the constitutional function of the 'fake elector' scheme. Explain to me this "protest", two months after the election, even though the Attorney General told Trump at the time the election was legitimate. Explain what Trump meant when he said to his acting Attorney General: "Just say the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the Republican congressmen".

  38. This again? Red states not only lead the nation in crime, they also lead the nation in poverty.

  39. The law doesn't even come into it. Sending a mob to invade the capital while the election was being finalized to overturn the results is an insurrection by the definition of the word. It wasn't a protest. You don't protest a lost election. Trump's co-conspirators are ready to testify in trial that Trump was fully aware he had lost the election. The 'stop the steal' "protest" was a scam. This is one of the reasons Trump is trying so desperately to delay the trials until after the election.

  40.  @RealWorldGames It also says "A well regulated Militia" which implies regulations and restrictions.

  41.  @RealWorldGames  Regarding McConnell? He just gave an observation as a witness. Nothing to do with the Constitution.

  42.  @RealWorldGames  The Senate is not a court of law. They didn't even allow witnesses.

  43.  @jackstuder1930  What do you call sending a mob to the capital hoping to stop the electoral vote counting? It wasn't a protest. His former lawyers and others, say he was well aware he had lost the election from day one. You don't protest losing an election. He was even overheard saying to his acting Attorney General: "Just say the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the Republican congressmen" (makes one wonder which Republican congressmen were in on the plot). The Constitution makes no requirement for a conviction, by the way.

  44. I wonder what a jury would decide after the Senate Minority Leader testified to them he saw an insurrection? Who's going to tell them otherwise? Eric Trump? Alex Jones? Bozo the Clown?

  45.  @jackstuder1930  I did quote Mitch McConnell. He was there; you weren't.

  46.  @davidcosta2244  You forgot Trump incited an insurrection. Now read the 14th Amendment. This ain't rocket science.
