When he referred to Mexican rapists when talking about illegal immigration, for example, it's a dogwhistle to the media and leftists to claim that he's racist because he knows how to push their buttons; everyone with any sense understands his exaggeration because they know that there *are* criminals that make up part of all illegal immigrants - it's an easy win with the hard-core right while moderates understand the nuance in actually enforcing immigration law. That he referred to the human-trafficking smugglers as coyotes and got leftists to bite thinking he was referring to actual canids just illustrates how low-information many people on Twitter actually are. |

I thought that only the candidate the party chooses as their candidate is the one the voters can put their vote on. If I Either The Rep choose him as their candidate or his new movement(if he starts one)get these 74 + millions votes Yes there are other independent candidate in your National election-I don't really count these.

In the General Election, usually it's Dem and GOP running presidential candidates with a smattering of 3rd party candidates. But you have to jump through a bunch of different laws, at the individual state level, to get in the ballot unless you are nominated by a political party. It may be easier to get a nomination from a 3rd party in most cases. |

The real reason for the storming of the Capitol finally revealed! Somebody spread rumours on that they had stockpiled vaccine in there, and so...

Yep and I believe that anyone can declare themselves to be a party candidate. Theoretically Trump could run as a Democrat in 2024! It all depends on whether a candidate can get the primary votes. |

Highly unlikely. They believe in trickle-down and would not dare to demand vaccination before the rich all have it.

I’m still try to figure this out. The vote was 57/43 in favor to acquit President Trump. Seven RINOS vote against Trump and its all over the news, including FOX. But, in order for a 57/43 outcome, that means 14 democrats voted in favor to acquit and it doesn’t make the news. Everyone knew the RINOS were going to vote guilty but, didn’t know how many democrats would vote to acquit. Whos are they and why are these are not in the news?

For real, in addition to what u_crank said, you'd have needed 2/3 (67/33 votes) to impeach.

Yeah, but that won't work, the DNC will cut him off at the knees like they did Bernie, Tulsi, and anyone else who steps out of line.

This is the true unstoppable crisis in America, and it's like watching an avalanche. No matter who wins the next elections, there's no unringing this bell.
