I’m sure huffpost knew what they’re implying. In truth he’s vowing to continue his presidential run from prison if necessary. The headline on their actual article is clearer: “Trump Vows To Run For President From Prison If Convicted”
I don’t think he’ll get very far, he is probably really bad at running.
Wouldn’t a conviction of the January 6th insurrection bar him from office via the 14th Ammendment?
Kinda sure stoking a rebellion against the government is a bigly no-no.
Only if he is charged with either aiding or inciting an insurrection. It has to specifically be one of those charges, or actual treason based on all of the legal interpretations I have seen.
I’m a felon, and I can vote.
Not a bullshit felony, either. I pled to 3 armed robbery charges, got 14 years with a mandatory 7 in North Carolina.
My sentence made me ineligible for parole, and when I was released they presented me with a document called “Restoration of Citizenship” which restored all rights (except firearm ownership I think. Not gonna test that one.)
He did tell them to “March down there and fight like hell” just after Ghouliani said we need to have “Trial by combat.”
That’s inciting stupid people to do something stupid.
Yes, but no.
First, Trump would have to be charged, and convicted, of treason, insurrection, etc., in order for that to apply. There’s been no legal determination of that yet, and it’s unlikely to come prior to the election.
Second, this presumes that Congress does what it’s supposed to do, and refuses to swear in a president that has elected after committing treason, etc. If congress simply ignores section 3 of the 14A, then there’s not really much of a remedy available to a typical citizen.
The guards don’t like it when you try to run.
He’ll get all the free hamberders and covfefe he can eat in there. Win win for him
This post is meta-commentary on the clickbait headline itself. I believe this still meets rule 1 as it differs only to add context and be more descriptive.
