Authors at The Hill, writing in the Opinion section, call on Congress to keep Donald Trump out of the presidency. The authors, Evan A. Davis and David M. Schulte, say he is an insurrectionist, which he provably is not.
The Hill claims this is only the opinion of the authors, but we doubt that. The authors then go on to cite the lawfare impeachments and legal cases as evidence he cannot serve. Where have we heard that before over and over?
Ironically, they want to use the Electoral Count Act to cancel Donald Trump. Democrats tried to imprison Donald Trump for doing the exact same thing.
They wrote:
…specific legislation designed for this situation already exists. The Electoral Count Act was first enacted in 1887 and later amended and restated in 2022. That statute provides a detailed mechanism for resolving disputes as to the validity of Electoral College votes.
The act specifies two grounds for objection to an electoral vote: If the electors from a state were not lawfully certified or if the vote of one or more electors was not “regularly given.” A vote for a candidate disqualified by the Constitution is plainly in accordance with the normal use of words “not regularly given.” Disqualification for engaging in insurrection is no different from disqualification based on other constitutional requirements such as age, citizenship from birth, and 14 years residency in the United States.
To make an objection under the Count Act requires a petition signed by 20 percent of the members of each House. If the objection is sustained by a majority vote in each house, the vote is not counted, and the number of votes required to be elected is reduced by the number of disqualified votes. If all votes for Trump were not counted, Kamala Harris would be elected president.
You can’t make this stuff up.

The “author” of the piece against Trump is a Brit who has no right to stick his big nose in our affairs.. Further, he and others should be arrested advocating the overthrow of U.S. government. The Hill is a bullsh*t rage that doesn’t deserve viewership.
This is the definition of lawfare and a treasonous demonstration of the Biden/Obama regime’s radical leftist Kangaroo Court that relies on the Hegelian Dialectic––not the U.S. Constitution to advance its power grab. The regime’s entire argument is based on the lies that Jan 6th was an insurrection, and that DJT was its leader!! Just as 9/11 provided the globalist elite with… Read more »
Huh, sounds kinda insurrection-y with a sprinkle of election denial. Something that would have gotten one canceled, harassed, doxxed, deemed a threat to democracy, etc.. not that long ago.
No one should be surprised that the Alinskyites would suggest this, for we know all their accusations against Trump were based on what they would do, nor what he had done.
