Just a reminder
  • This is such a bewildering take. You can yadda yadda corruption on both sides but when the platform of one side is "making your and your neighbors lives better" and the platform of the other side is "straight-up fascism; we want to put people in camps," the arithmetic is clear.

    You'll never ever ever be able to vote for a perfect candidate. You might as well vote to make your country a better place to live.

  • The Supreme Court seems poised to reject efforts to kick Trump off the ballot over the Capitol riot
  • The nuance you're missing is that Congress by 2/3rds majority can vote to essentially nullify ineligibility part of the 14th amendment. So he could theoretically get elected and Congress could vote that he could still serve despite leading an insurrection.

    Would Congress ever vote on that? Not a chance. But it still leaves open eligibility, which is the issue. If he could be eligible to be president, can he really be kept off the ballot?
