A murder of leading law professors have argued that the Fourteenth Amendment is self-executing and requires local election officials to remove Trump from the ballot, as though he were a “stable genius” who had not reached the age of 35. Taking their lead, citizens’ groups have commenced actions in at least 21 states to disqualify Donald Trump from running for President because he engaged in an insurrection.

    Judges, as it turns out, are people, people with family and loved ones who they wish to keep safe, and have seen the insanity surrounding the American Republican Nazi Movement, and in the three cases where they’ve ruled in Trumps favor, ignore the evidence of their own eyes in favor of safety. I can fault them for not performing their tasks and duties they swore to uphold, but I can’t fault them for being terrified of the repercussions of having themselves and their families doxxed and targeted with violent reprisals… forever. Doesn’t help that the by and large the majority of Police departments nationwide support MAGA, and look the other way when these threats are made, or enacted against those who’ve publicly stood against Trump. We’re in a very dark place, and I believe democracy and the American experiment will survive this American Republican Nazi Movement, but there will be some casualties along the way, and none of these judges signed up to be Martyrs.

        And the Mob at it’s height in the 40’s couldn’t hold a candle holding a candle to the breadth and reach of the American Republican Nazi Movement, I mean Jesus Christ they control entire States, and at it’s strongest the American Mafia only controlled Las Vegas, and the beaches in Cuba.
