I watched Jamie Raskin explain the validity of Article 3 of the 14th Amendment last night. For most Democrats, and anyone who wants to see Donald Trump get what’s coming to him, what he said made perfect sense and was nice to hear.
For most Republicans, and those who STILL think Trump walks on water, it was as if all that Raskin said was pulled directly from his ass and was offered up only in service of spreading lies and misinformation and a liberal bias.
There is no winning of arguments here. One can listen to a Constitutional scholar explain things in plain terms, and you will either hear something rational and sensible, or something horribly misinterpreted and offered only in the service of glorifying the “weaponized” justice system and adding fuel to the fire that Trump indeed is the victim of a years-long “witch hunt.”
Positions are hardened. It’s difficult to know exactly what happens by early November, but the gut is telling many that it’s gonna be a patch of rough road, to put it mildly. In no small part because millions continue to be deceived by a fallen “star,” just another “celebrity” whose qualifications aren’t even skin deep.
Sorry for all the quotes. They feel justified, though.
