Laws cannot target a single person. This is so unconstitutional

We seriously need to go after them as hard as they go after their enemies when we're in power.. no holding back. And peach Biden every week if we have to

Trump's first two years the only thing the GOP majority accomplished was tax reform. The establishment republicans are much happier being in the minority where they can tut-tut on cable news and not be responsible for anything.

Kinda missed out chance lol. It's like saying we should have been harder on germany after WWI so they couldn't have rearmed for WW2. The next time we get a chance will be post apocalyptic.

Hey they couldn’t just say impeached because that would get Slick Willy banned too.

2 impeachments is double secret probation though.

Cool, let's impeach Clinton again, since apparently it's now allowed to impeach non-presidents for non-crimes.

I'm surprised that is doesn't specify someone who was twice acquitted and has walked in N Korea's DMZ.

Trump isn't named but anyone "twice impeached" would be targeted. Problem with that is: impeachment is the act of bringing charges, regardless of the outcome. This would violate the 5th amendment in that he will be deprived of liberty without due process... you know... found guilty.

On further review this actually is prohibited by Article I Section 9.

No bill of attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed.

Because the bill explicitly states

  1. create or display any symbol, monument, or statue commemorating any former President that has been twice impeached by the House of Representatives on or before the date of enactment of this Act

You know what would take a whole lot less cognitive effort than this?

Working out how we can all come together and use our might of numbers to simply run them down.

Good catch, I didn't even think of this.

The Constitution explicitly denies government the ability to criminalize past conduct.

Basically, any law that punishes someone for doing something in the past that wasn't illegal at the time, is a violation of the Constitution.

This would violate the 5th amendment in that he will be deprived of liberty without due process... you know... found guilty.

No it's denying privileges not rights.

It is clearly a Bill of attainder though and that's the better constitutional argument against this.

IronSpector 3 points ago +3 / -0

liberty encompasses both rights and privilege's when combined with the "equal application of the law coupon"

Since this isn't an act to pass judgement it isn't a bill of attainder.

Do you think due process applies to a fraudulently installed government?

At this point its all about obstructing and highlighting any illicit activity. Showing people the contrast between Xiden and Trump, real fascism vs fake label of fascism, would be the big red pill they need. Stop taking the black pills, the late Rush Limbaugh still had hope and was active through Clinton and Obama years

All due respect but who gives a shit about amendments at this point. You are ruled over by people who are not American citizens that decide everything and have their slave puppets as the figureheads.

They have decided it's time to get rid of the first two

If we take back congress, we can pass laws naming important buildings after Trump, if this is the precedent they want to set. He'll get a 25 gun salute and a pyramid to be buried in, lol.

There was Bush Derangement Syndrome before it, and the next Republican President will also have a Derangement Syndrome.

It's all Liberal Derangement Syndrome, the only thing that changes is the flavor.

Trump Derangement is taken to who different level tho. Bush and co lied about WMDs so that we could start an actual war. We heard a bunch of “Bush man bad” and other insults, but the establishment left him alone bc he was part of their swamp. Trump endured multiple coups attempts from the swamp, including members of his own party.

Lol, if the democrats went after the CCP as hard as they go after President Trump, China would be weaker than North Korea.
