billvon 2,990 #705 December 17, 2020 So NC State Senator Bob Steinburg just called for Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act and suspend Constitutional rights so Trump can remain in power. He quoted a retired general who said that "President Trump must declare a national emergency . . .Trump should also invoke the Insurrection Act. He must suspend Habeas Corpus.” When asked about it he said that he sees that as an option, and supports it "if that's what needs to be done." So I am once again curious what Ron thinks about this. Ron, at one point you took an oath to defend the US Constitution; you have reminded us of this several times. Would you actually defend it if Trump takes him up on his suggestion? Or would you turn a blind eye because he's on your side? https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/530420-republican-nc-state-senator-trump-should-invoke-the-insurrection-act Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used to think that until he posted links to and quotes from racists screeds. Then acted like he was too innocent to understand, and that it was accidental. The man posts here because he enjoys roiling you up. You (and I) entertain him. Although he likely is a true believer in something as well....

ryoder 1,590 #713 December 17, 2020 Why Trump Declaring a 2024 Presidential Bid Would Be “Profoundly Stupid” https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2020/12/why-trump-declaring-a-2024-presidential-bid-would-be-profoundly-stupid/ But should Trump make his presidential intentions official—as opposed to merely hinting at them—that would be “profoundly stupid,” in the words of one campaign finance attorney who spoke to Mother Jones. That’s because declaring a presidential bid will trigger a slew of election laws prescribing how Trump can raise and spend money. It would also force Trump to continue filing annual financial disclosures containing information about his business deals, loans, and personal wealth that Trump may not be eager to reveal. It goes on to explain how that $200M+ personal slush fund he has collected from the MAGA sheep would be in jeopardy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then he'll go back on Twitter and say no, he's absolutely definitely running and that's an official announcement from the office of the former POTUS and his lawyers will say 'see, that Donald he's such a kidder!'
