    That is the worst case of obtuse misreading ever. The Constitution is very clear on this. The SCOTUS is ignoring it and making up conditions that DO NOT EXIST.

      Great. The constitution is clear. Super. Tell me where the constitution tells us who decides if an insurrection has occurred. Round round round we go.

      Republicans say Biden must be removed from the ballot because he allows “open borders” allowing the country’s enemies past the gate. Is that insurrection? Are they wrong? How do we know? Who decides?

        And no, border issues are not an insurrection and the Republicans know that it isn’t. They are not challenging the Constitution or the supreme Court on this? They are simply trying to brainwash and con their voter base. You are giving them entirely too much power and I can’t understand why.

        It sounds like you’re saying that insurrections don’t exist. Are you saying that if an insurrection failed then it isn’t an insurrection? If the insurrection is successful how are you going to prosecute it?
