A lot of people thought she was going to go all the way to the RNC, but I didn’t think she would last that long.

Now the question is what they’ll do if Trump gets convicted. Not every trial will be delayed until after the election.

    To be clear, the SCOTUS ruling doesn’t just prevent states from removing someone from the ballot. It also prevents federal courts from removing someone convicted of sedition from the ballot. It was a very broad, bad ruling that essentially says the courts will not do anything about Trump

      The courts were never going to save us. We have to save ourselves at the ballot box in November.

      Everyone should be running on the assumption that Trump will never face consequences for anything that he has done or will do in the future and that he is a serious threat to retaking the presidency despite the Biden rematch.
