Disqualifying Credentials, & Taylor Swift For President
THE CONGRESSPERSON from my district is a Republican, of course; I live in a very red state, and even though my congressional district includes a major univerity, it is still, overall, conservative. He's an incumbant, running for reelction, and, since he is a Republican who toes the Republican line and has an impressive resume, he seems almost a shoe in to get reelected to another two year term in the House of Representatives, this fall. An yet, he has already begun his congressional campaign, in January. We the American people are, it seems, in for a brutally long election campaign season... His ad on the local radio is impressive, and details an impressive resume, including being the mayor of a large town which, during his mayoral term, attracted hundreds of millions of dollars in new business investsment. Before that, he was in the military, and platoon leader who served honorably in the middle east after nine one one. He promotes his congressional record by pointing to a new federal highway which runs through our district. Also, he is a majority member on the House Appropriations Committee. Impressive indeed. Impressive, but, alas, intolerable... unacceptable. For one thing, unless I am dreaming, he is a Trump supporter. All of the Republican leadersin ms tate, including all the House members and the governor herself, are declared Trumpers. That in itself disqualifies them for the offices they currently hold, or should. Likewise, Trump'sinsurrection disqualifies him, according to the constitution, for becoming president, or holdning any other office in America, including dog catcher. Maine nd Colaordo have removed Trump from the ballot; within a fewweks the U.S. Supreme Court will, presumably, rule on whether he can be on the ballot anywhere and everywhere. According to the constitution, according to the framers of the constitution, Trump should not be on the ballot is not eligible. The smart money says that our courrent right wing extremist pro Trump supreme court will lack the integrity to make the correct ruling, and will instead rule that Trump must be included on the ballot in every state. They will use some shrill, lame, "let he voters decide" illogic. What if Taylor Swift suddenly declared her candidacy for the presidency, and immediately attracted massive support (which she would), and surged into the lead in all the polls? Yes, its possible. It could happen. Anybody who has lived in these United States for the past few years knows perfectly well that far stranger things have happened. Taylor Swift, kicking Trump's ass- until a group of Trumper's points out the Ms. Swift is only thirty four years old, and therefore, accodoring to the constitution, not old enough to serve as president. They would take it to court. The Spreme Couort would side with the constitution, and Taylor Swift would be off the ballot, for being a few months too young. But Donald Trump, who tried to violently overthrow the United States government, I can almost promise you, will be cleared by SCOTUS to run. All because the high court is a bunch of right wing extremist punks, Taylor Swift is a liberal, and Trump is their boy.
