Trump's chaos must be ignored. There is one issue and one issue only that we as Americans must grapple with. That issue is, regardless of anything Trump does or says, he holds the office of the presidency in clear violation of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment (14A, hereafter). The 14A holds no requirement that an insurrectionist be adjudicated as one by any court. Yet, Trump had his day in court, and the evidence against him was so overwhelming that Colorado's courts quickly ruled that his name could not appear on their state ballot.
Despite the objectively INCORRECT ruling by the SCOTUS that only Congress can decide who can either appear or not on a state ballot (clearly absurd because, per the Constitution, the individual states run their elections in accordance with state law, not federal law), Section 3 of the 14A is self-executing. Section 5 exists to allow Congress to override any decision by a state to place an insurrectionist's name on their ballot in contravention to Section 3. The SCOTUS decision is, literally, the opposite of the intent of Section 5. In fact, despite that ruling, Trump continues to hold a federal elective office in clear violation of Section 3. It does not matter what circumstances placed him there, nor how many people voted for him, nor whether or not Congress allowed his name to remain on the ballot.
It is, therefore, incumbent upon Congress to correct this clear violation of the Constitution. Congress, being overrun by cowardly politicians, must be reminded over and over again by the American public that, regardless of party, they each swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the USA and that most definitely includes the 14A.
If you care about the rule of law and the foundational document of our Republic it is incumbent upon YOU, regardless of your own partisan political views, to remind EVERY member of Congress, daily, that they are ALL in violation of their sworn oath of office until they take action to remove Trump from office. This is the only way we have left to save our Republic and prevent this country from becoming part of the axis of evil dictatorships that rule much of the world's population.
If you do not care about the rule of law or the Constitution then you will get precisely what you deserve, a klepto-oligarcho-Christo-fascist dictatorship. Heaven help us all!
