Many of Trump’s proposals for his second term are surprisingly extreme, draconian, and weird, even for him. Here’s a running list of his most unhinged plans.

      Maybe I’m not articulating MY point well enough. If someone breaks their oath of office (and by the way that has indeed now been found to be a fact in a Court of Law), they cannot be trusted to keep their oath of office. This is not my opinion, this is written into the Constitution of our country.

      The ruling in Court is necessary, of course, for the reasons you have given. But Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment does not require it. The text of the Amendment says nothing about convictions. That is what I am saying. If you think it does, show me the text. If you can’t quote me the text that says a conviction is required, then you still haven’t understood my point.

      Edit: bolded the part where I acknowledge what you are saying is correct, because that is important text you should pay attention to.
