    If disqualifying candidates based on false pretences is a “constitutional crisis”, why isn’t THIS inverse — restoring an insurrectionist to the ballot — a “constitutional crisis”?

    At this point “constitutional crisis” just sounds like another fantasy guard rail “check” or “balance” that people view as a turning point or line in the sand, but in reality everyone will just accept the fascist takeover and act like things aren’t bad enough to do anything about it yet

    I swear, if they shit all over our freedoms 13 or 14 more times, they’re gonna regret the numerous times they shat all over us and we did nothing!
