The Presidency of Donald J. Trump, Episode XIV: T-minus 97 Hours

Depending on your school (or your prison) it very well could be the same. Sysco provided most of the food to my university and I know that at least at the time they also had lots of contracts with prisons.

OMG, I forgot about all these Trump pictures.

Don’t think he is since your pic says it’s served to the bad inmates, he’s talking about the food in general. But also I still don’t see how nutraloaf goes against what I’m saying, I’m going to guess it’s cheap as fuck and that’s the main reason it’s bought. Like I doubt the prison warden is tasting the food he buys and deciding which one tastes more like shit, he’s looking at the bottom line so he can keep expenses low and keep more in his pocket

Yeah that was the rumor - that we got the same food the nearby prison got.

It’s not clear to me if this has to be tried through Congress. If someone takes an oath and then is convicted of doing the sedition in regular court it should apply?

Ending Trump’s presidency under the 14th Amendment is probably impossible, scholars say, because there is no mechanism for removal in the provision. It could, however, be used to prevent Trump or other politicians who supported the attempted insurrection from holding office again.

The history of Section 3, though little known, is a remarkable one. Though it doesn’t mention them by name, the provision was specifically aimed at Confederates following the Civil War, seeking to bar them from holding public office during Reconstruction.

“The language in Section 3 applies to anybody who has made an oath to the Constitution and then violates that oath,” Foner said. “It’s pretty simple.”

Southerners deeply opposed the provision, arguing it would harm any effort to unite the country.

You would expect that their speechwriters have timed the speakers cadence and figured out that a typed page equals 2 minutes or whatever and write speeches accordingly.

But they’re probably just all dumb and haven’t though of that.
