  1. It doesn't have to illuminate every law, especially what is considered basic common law all other laws are based off.  @jakeaurod

  2. "It" is the constitution.  @jakeaurod

  3. My point was the constitution does not have to list every law or process. @jakeaurod

  4. He was impeached but acquitted, please get an education on what that actually means. Arrested and charged doesn't mean convicted, neither does an impeachment ffs "a lot of numbnuts commentators in this thread that don't understand how precedent is established, or indeed have any understanding of legal matters" LOL  @AutoMattOn

  5. The federalist papers clearly state that the founding fathers did not want prosecutorial powers in the hands of the States in regards to a sitting president, for obvious political reasons. @jakeaurod

  6. But that is for normal citizens, not a president and sorry to tell you he was tried for insurrection under the articles of impeachment and he was acquitted under the proper procedure, any other trial/charge would be double jeopardy.  @jakeaurod

  7. I don;t think that has been tested in this way. And a civil vs criminal trial can't produce double jeopardy anyway so not sure where you are going with that. And this line you keep going on about: "legislature or governor of a state, were empowered to make a simple finding and declaration that there existed a state of rebellion. " A state of rebellion is not a statement of guilt/participation, it is a declaration of an emergency event. @jakeaurod

  8. You are all over the place. No one brought up anything you just said. Only a conviction can decide if Trump was guilty of being in an insurrection or any other crime, the SCOTUS would rule the process that would lead to a conviction, not if he was guilty or not.  @jakeaurod

  9. What insurrection? Has anyone even been charged with "insurrection"? As a Canadian and mostly centrist, I am baffled by all of it. There were no demands, hostages....nothing...only people you may disagree with politically.
