Something about a tree fell on him and broke his back, then sued for millions and won
Then helped change the law so other people couldnt do the same
Thats the kind of person he is

Shame it missed his head.

Man, if that happens there's gonna be a lot of homeless people in San Francisco indicted on federal charges.

I fail to see how shitting on the street effects interstate commerce. Other than that they can only outlaw it on federal property.

C'mon don't spread false info. It was a settlement so it never went to trial. And quoting the Texas daily tribune:

"The attorney general and former Supreme Court judge said a person facing the same type of injury he sustained would still have the same remedies available to him at the time."

Fucking SCOTUS

Trump is still on the ballot.

I can see the logic.:think:

 

[Peppers]

Even if it was a liberal court he'd probably still be on the ballot.

He hasn't been convicted of insurrection, WTF did anyone expect.

Which is kinda amazing in its own right

I'm sure that's next on the list for some states to try and do.

Unanimous decision. bee-tee-dubs.

Are you aware there is a difference between state jurisdiction and federal jurisdiction? Like a state can have insurrection laws peraining to the /state/ government but not the /federal/ government.

This is a good thing.

Because the ruling also prevents other states from leaving Biden off the ballot despite him not being convicted of anything either, and you know some of the states would try.

 

[Mr. Argumentor]

The GOP majority took the opportunity to basically say "only congress can bar someone from holding office due to insurrection."

And the requirements for barring someone don't exist. And everything else about the 14th amendment is self executing. Except, for some reason, this part?

What a fucking circus you guys have down there

Yes. I googled it.

We prefer the term clown rodeo.

It's gonna get even crazier when one or both of the guys running for president down here die of old age before election day and the parties have to scramble to nominate a last minute candidate.

Oh man it would be so awesome if both of them did.

 

[ZRH]

Oh man it would be so awesome if both of them did.

I'm pretty sure Biden would endorse someone and pull out if Trump died.

 

[Valve1138]

Maybe we’ll get lucky and Trump will get sucked through the engine of his plane.
