@w7voa Trumpy's not going to be happy with that face Mike Johnson. Smile, you climbed to the top of the greasy pole and now your chickens are coming home to roost.

@w7voa No mention that trump is not eligible to hold office according to the Constitution?

@BLTpizza

The NYTimes did a breakdown of that and concluded he's still eligible. Pretty sure Dems would have stopped him if he wasn't.

Can Trump Still Run for President After His Conviction?

The Constitution and U.S. law have clear answers for only some of the questions raised by the criminal conviction of a major presidential candidate.

@mackaj @w7voa Running and holding office are two different things. The Constitution refers to holding office. We saw how feckless the DOJ was in pursuit of their cases against turd. It not a case for the courts. The Constitution used plain language to bar a scum bag like turd from holding office and it's like whatever.
