I mean, he just spent the day testifying about how it was part of his job because he had no autonomy and had to do what he was told, but that's cool.

I'm not saying that I disagree with your take that overturning an election isn't part of the job description. I am saying I disagree that moving the trial so they can get it thrown out due to immunity isn't their primary reason since Meadows has said as much in court.

I'll remember that argument.

I'm sure the judge will accept that I was just following orders when I finished the hit job that my boss told me to do.

ME: Your honor, it's not my fault. I was just doing my job as a mob hit man.

JUDGE: Well alrighty then, you were just doing your job. Case dismissed.

Yeah...that'd fly really well with the judge.

The kicker is all the stuff that ISN'T being pursued. The clearing of the park for a photo op.

The use of Bureau of Prison Goon Squads in public settings.

Stuff we probably don't even know about.

Didn't work at Nuremburg, either.

Trump's argument is that he is the mob boss and he did not kill the guy and all he did was say that someone should kill the guy. That what he said is covered by free speech. As the judge said, the right to free speech is not absolute.

"And I didn't even say to kill him, I just said 'take care of him', I can't be held responsible for how they interpreted that statement!"

Rudy, Rudy, Rudy. Oh boy, lets see. Relying on obvious drunkard's legal advise could be a problem.

Why does this not shock me in the slightest.


There are some shit people at the FBI.

If Nikki Haley wins the Republican nomination to run for President will Trump say he was cheated out of it? There won't be any health officials dictating how the convention voters should conduct voting procedures like back during the pandemic.

So I wonder how he'll go about it like maybe try to set up his own set of convention voters to replace the legit ones. Sort of like he did in Georgia. Actually a lot of Trump supporters probably think that might work.

Nah he wants other people to do the work for him, he is far too low energy to bother.
He will do what he always does:
Complain how he was cheated
Complain how unfair it was
State he won
Say Haley can't run because she is not an American

Her parents are from India. I didn't know that and most of the forum probably didn't know that. Looks we have to go through that whole thing again like with Obama. With half or more of us thinking there may be some validity to it despite apparent constitutional law that it's ok for her to be President.

That's pretty common knowledge and most people on this forum know her real first name is Nimrata. There is a thread about it after all.

I stand corrected. I often spend time away from the forum which causes me to make wrong assumptions. Like in this case I got it wrong saying the forum was mostly unaware of that her parents immigrated from India. There's still a chance I may be right that a lot of us, perhaps most of us aren't so sure if it's legal for her to be President.

She was born in the United States, why wouldn’t she be eligible for the Presidency?

Because Josh is ignorant, everyone else also is.
To help show how this is true I'm sure most of us know that some Repub leaders want to deny benefits to Mexican children born in the US to non US citizens. They say it's not right to give all those economic goodies in that way when the parents aren't even US citizens and are trying to take advantage of the US.

A lot of us sympathize with that so there you go. I sometimes lean a bit to the left so it's ok with me. But not so for many here. Hence eelw's 'everyone else also is' is illustrated.

So the same principle can be carried over to questioning if Nikki Haley can legally be President. Lots of us probably think that way. Not saying most of us here think like that because the forum is mostly liberal.

But it's still a disturbing condition we're stuck with in that many here think her parents and she are gaming the system in an attempt to get her to be President. Don't ask me, ask some of the forum members. If they tell the truth lots of them will have the doubts previously mentioned.

That's idiotic, and probably racist. This entire country was built on immigrants and the children of immigrants, why would they be any different if they came from one specific country? Would you feel that way if their parents came from England? Fuck, based on that my blind GF shouldn't get benefits because her father wasn't born in the US, and she's about as small town white girl as it gets.

What they really want is to end the birthright citizenship altogether. Which of course would knock Nimrata out of eligibility.
