❗️

“In a surprise move, an judge has removed former President Donald from the state’s ballot based on the ’s so-called “insurrectionist ban.”

He’ll have time to appeal.

@GottaLaff He'll appeal, but
1)That's no reason not to do it
2)Standing up to fascism is always important
3)Let him appeal, it'll cost him money & take time from campaigning
4)This will hopefully encourage more states to do the same
5)Let's bury him in lawsuits so he has to spend all his time and what money he has left appealing them.

@samhainnight I never suggested they shouldn’t do it. I’m just not too excited. SCOTUS will screw us on this too

@GottaLaff Oh, for sure. But in the meantime, let's keep him busy in court.

@GottaLaff Sorry it just crossed my timeline saying BREAKING tho I see it was originally 18 hours ago.

@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@SteveThompson I know, the BREAKING always throws me when they use it on TV for old news.

I always look at time stamps, btw.

@GottaLaff I'm well into my "golden years", and I never imagined that an American judge would disqualify a presidential candidate because they incited an insurrection. Of course, I never imagined that a losing president would incite an insurrection, so there's that.

@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@OldFartPhil Ditto
