I have eyes and ears. No one made stuff up. He did incite an insurrection. He did. Don't deny it.

Meanwhile, "Trump says maybe the us will have a president for life someday"

If we go by your methods. For all I know you incited an insurrection. My guess is you will deny it. Which means you really did it.

If you truly believe this, then you need to get news sources of information. The ones who lied to you about a stolen election, Seth rich and Vince foster are also lying to you about this.

From NPR, your favorite news source:

The U.S. Senate on Saturday acquitted former President Donald Trump on an impeachment charge of inciting an insurrection.

The acquittal comes more than a month after a mob of Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol as lawmakers were counting the electoral results that certified Trump's loss.

It wasn’t a court of law. It was a vote by partisan politicians, not neutral judges, to remove or not remove him from office based on his conduct and actions in that office. The vote neither absolved him from being guilty of those actions nor made a definitive judicial statement about the nature of his actions, only that the majority of senators from his own party decided not to remove him from office.

You can say the same thing about the House that voted to impeach him. And the J6 committee. Neither were courts of laws but highly partisan bodies. And it must also be admitted many courts are becoming highly partisan bodies themselves too, which is also disappointing. You can't accuse a certain court like SCOTUS of being partisan without acknowledging other courts are also highly partisan in favor of the Democrats. Nonetheless, regarding the Colorado court and many of the posts on here, it is worth noting on that count that the criminal indictment of Donald Trump over January 6, filed in Washington DC in the summer, did not include an insurrection charge — focusing instead on his ‘conspiracy to defraud the United States’ over the 2020 election.

The J6 committee was bi-partisan, no matter how much you want to claim the GOP members were somehow not GOP.

Snorts with laughter.

Pelosi handpicked the few Republicans on the committee and blocked the ones the GOP wanted to recommend. It was not bipartisan by any stretch of the imagination. All the Republicans on the committee (three?) were defeated in their subsequent primaries or redistricted out or didn't run again because they knew they would lose. Cheney herself was blown out in a hugely embarrassing defeat.

Hard to call that bipartisan when the Democrats blocked the Republicans from appointing their own preferred people to the committee. It was no more bipartisan than the Republicans' decision to shut down the committee once they took control of Congress. J6 was utterly and thoroughly partisan.

Hello friends. The Colorado court determined in November that Trump had engaged in insurrection. Perhaps you missed the ruling? Go back and read it.

District Judge Sarah B. Wallace found that Trump indeed had “engaged in insurrection” by inciting the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.

https://apnews.com/article/trump-insurrection-14th-amendment-2024-colorado-d16dd8f354eeaf450558378c65fd79a2#:~:text=The%20Colorado%20case%20is%20the,was%20a%20fairly%20technical%20one.

Also, regarding that Colorado 14th Amendment ruling that deemed Trump ineligible to run for President, all of you out there shrieking about a liberal witch hunt and how Biden had him thrown off the ballot and demanding revenge against Democrats and so on... YET AGAIN you are MISINFORMED AND WAY OFF BASE.

Let's look at those facts... The Colorado 14th Amendment case was brought by... Biden? No. Democrats? No. It was brought by a group of REPUBLICANS. https://www.courthousenews.com/republican-voters-file-suit-to-keep-trump-off-colorados-primary-ballot/

So you want to blame the wrong people. For the wrong reason. You delusional, misinformed MAGAs should hang your heads in shame. You're long past due to drop your dumb conspiracy theories, misinformed and wildly incorrect propaganda, and join the world of truth and reality, no matter how inconvenient it is for your cultish following of Trump.

They were conservatives who had the balls to say what was true. Pelosi did not allow the co-conspirators on the committee.

Oh, we're the ones snorting with (disdainful) laughter at YOU, because you're out here still staunchly defending the less-sane Republican members of Congress who ran around yapping untruths about "the election was stolen from Trump" and everything else, which has been repeatedly disproven. And you're one of the delusional souls who thinks that somehow Capital footage of one or two police officers giving in and retreating from the violent J6 mob somehow miraculously erases the HOURS AND HOURS of footage showing them violently attacking police officers, smashing windows, and so on. And you still cling to idiotic and delusional conspiracy theories about how it was all done by a vast army of mysterious and still-unidentified FBI agents who showed up in "ghost buses" dressed up as Trumpsters - DESPITE the lack of any real evidence whatsoever, and DESPITE the fact that a huge number of the violent J6 mob who inflicted the most damage and casualties HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AND ARRESTED AND HAD ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FBI.

So sit down and shut up, Sparky.

+1000. It would have been a complete mockery to allow wackjob election deniers like Gym Jordan to sit on that committee.

Unless the Think the insurrection clause does not require due process (ie a conviction FOR insurrection) this will be overruled so quickly . Honestly the judges ruling this way should be removed from the bench and disbarred. Despite what you think of trump everyone is entitled to due process

Stop with the misinformation! Trump fomented an insurrection and got his followers to storm the Capitol to stop the certification of the election. Those are *FACTS* and I worked for Congress -serving both parties- on that day. You are a liar and are spreading false information.

Nah, just real people outside of the D.C. bubble and who reflect the views of the majority of the country.

The majority of the country rejected Trump for president. Twice. Yugely.

The clause mentions nothing about a conviction, and was designed to bar former confederates who wouldn’t have been convicted of anything.

Agree - it is staggering how much illegal behavior that Trump cult followers excuse and expect law abiding citizens to excuse.

I don’t think Trump would win an election (either popular or electoral) but he is not fit to even run for presidential office.

There is so much other illegal conduct that should disqualify Trumo from running (fraud:/ tax evasion/ election lies/ sexual assaults) but inciting a violent rebellion should be bare minimum.

Also agree that he belongs in jail - and needs to be treated by top notch psychiatrists. I doubt there is a cure for malignant narcissism and pathological lying but hopefully it could be managed better .
