McConnell sees this for what it is: His chance to get rid of Trump.

I've told everybody that would listen for years that McConnell is no fool. Quite the contrary, he's sharp as a tac. He got everything he wanted out of Trump and now this is his golden opportunity to be rid of him.

For McConnell, this isn't about redemption. Make no mistake about that. For McConnell, this is business as usual.

Treasonous snowflakes arrested for rioting think they were treated like animals by the police. These idiots thought they would all be heroes and get medals, talk about a delusional cult, wait till they get a look at their prison diet.

Opinion | Here's the fastest, easiest way to keep Trump from ever holding office again

The benefit of the 14th Amendment is that it allows Democrats to hold Trump accountable without the need for support from Republican senators or Mike Pence.

Max Burns Removing Trump through impeachment or the 25th Amendment is warranted. But this is better.
The benefit of the 14th Amendment is that it allows Democrats to hold Trump accountable without the need for support from Republican senators or Mike Pence.

By Max Burns, Democratic strategist
There's a better way to stop President Donald Trump than impeachment and the 25th Amendment — and it's one that even has some Republican support. Though rarely used and often overlooked, the 14th Amendment could be the key to preventing a president who contributed to a domestic terrorist attack from ever receiving a position of public office again.

The 14th Amendment was crafted in times of division not entirely unlike our own.
The president of the United States meets all the criteria for being permanently barred from public office under even a rigid originalist reading of the third section of the 14th Amendment, ratified after the Civil War as a way to expel public officials who sided with Confederate insurrectionists over the union. The 14th Amendment's text plainly states that "no person shall ... hold any office, civil or military," who, "having previously taken an oath ... to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid and comfort to the enemies thereof."

The benefit of the 14th Amendment over impeachment is that it allows Democrats to hold Trump accountable without the need to gather a bipartisan supermajority of senators, which lawmakers say is unlikely because Republican obstruction has defined nearly every effort to bind Trump to the rule of law. It also bypasses the challenge of invoking the 25th Amendment, which requires the support of Vice President Mike Pence. The main drawback — the 14th Amendment's lack of a removal clause — could be remedied through well-deserved impeachment, though Trump's departure in a week will make this issue moot.

Invoking the 14th Amendment could well garner more Republican support. On Monday evening, GOP Rep. Tom Reed of New York published an op-ed in The New York Times making his case for avoiding impeachment. "Work with us on constitutionally viable alternatives," Reed pleaded. Those include "censure, criminal proceedings, and actions under the 14th Amendment."

I used to go to Newsmax to get a right slant on American life, it has been odd since Biden won and Fox stabbed Trump in the back. Used to only be a dozen or so of us communists there to keep the place from being a circle jerk. I tried to see what Infowars was like but I couldn't dip my toe in the pool, it just seemed too slimy. I can not even imagine how a person could only accept a steady diet of it. I think there is no reforming any who were, you may have to find an empty country and dump them all there as the British did with Australia.

Pawns are always 1st to fall . I’m keeping a watchful eye on due process for the alleged senate lead reconnaissance missions & those accountable for allowing entrance to the capital. Of all the Team Trump pieces in play right now for me those are the ones that need smacked hardest .

I am guessing we are talking about at least half our population worth you need to get rid of. We could put them in tents up north but I am guseeing we would need to wait until summer to drop them there. It would be too obvious a ploy to drop them there in the winter.
