Dan Patrick, the Republican lieutenant governor of Texas, threatened on Tuesday to remove President Joe Biden from his state’s ballot—seemingly as retribution for a Colorado Supreme Court ruling which booted former President Donald Trump from that state’s 2024 presidential race for engaging in an insurrection on Jan. 6.
Patrick made the comments on Fox News, justifying the potentially unprecedented action to host Laura Ingraham as a response to Biden’s border policies.
The only thing stopping him, he said, was that people in Texas “believe in democracy.”
“Seeing what happened in Colorado makes me think—except we believe in democracy in Texas—maybe we should take Joe Biden off the ballot in Texas for allowing eight million people to cross the border since he’s been president disrupting our state,” Patrick said.
Oh man. That took one hot minute.
Yeah, those Amendment things can fuck off! We’re just gonna take Biden off the ballot because we’re moody. This is who conservatives are, folks. Stop fucking voting them into office!
>The only thing stopping him, he said, was that people in Texas “believe in democracy.”
And the fact that Biden hasn’t participated in instigating an insurrection which would make him ineligible to run. That would be trump.
Texas GOP is a bunch of babies.
Fucking boot licker
That whole party is just one angry toddler.
It wouldn’t affect election results in any way.
Aww, he got his fee-fees hurt.
Performative nonsense.
And Republicans claiming to believe in democracy and decrying Trump’s removal from the ballot for engaging in insurrection in the same breath is pretty fucking rich.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the party of law and order.^(/s)
For what reason?
Did I miss the Biden insurrection?
And Biden will still win. Trump is a felon
Dan Patrick has no penis. Fact.
I thought the state was seceding – oh well
But Biden didn’t need Texas last time because he still won the EC without Texas.
Fuck that guy.
He should be in prison.
Texas: actively acting against the best interests of the rest of the country….and its owns citizens.
Spoken like a five year old (apologies to 5-yr-olds)
Republicans are truly all feelings.
I threaten Dan Patrick with a swift kick in the nuts after he threatens to take Biden off State’s Ballot after Colorado ruling.
Sorry, did I miss President Biden inciting insurrection?
Yes, official legal processes are definitely on par with “my fee-fees are hurt.”
Conservatives are the whiniest bunch of people I have ever seen. It’s only election interference by Biden when you remove ALL the details. The DOJ, which is a branch of government before and during and after Biden’s term, is investigating the actions on January 6th. But The details matter. It’s the DoJ DURING Biden’s term yes but to be pulling strings? No. Everyone along the chain has gone in front of the committees and public and testified he has full rights to prosecute or not. And it was a Grand Jury who recommended it from the peers who live in the district it was committed. Trump attended a rally, used rhetoric in front of the public and directed them to walk on Capitol Hill. He did nothing until they were already inside and someone was killed. The DOJ would still do what they did unless it was directed not to. A federal crime was committed.
More rotting raw meat for the maga idiots to consume .
And doing so would violate Biden’s due process rights.
Trump had his day in court with the Colorado thing. The court ruled he engaged in an insurrection, adhering to due process the whole time.
Texas has not yet followed due process to prove the same about Biden.
Remember when this kind of comment used to be considered absolutely fringe, batshit insane crazy. Just a mere 8-9ish years ago
Colorado took Trump off the ballot, because he instigated an insurrection to remain in power after losing the election.
Texas wants to take Biden off the ballot, because he is a Democrat. Seriously if Newsom were to announce that he was running instead of Biden they would have likely done the same shit.
Do these people not understand laws? Trump committed crimes. This isn’t just a “I don’t like it so get him too” scenario.
The same piece of human garbage who said (during quarantine) “there are more important things than living and that’s saving the country/economy” implying that people should be proud to die for our economy while my uncle suffocated to death from covid not but several weeks after this comment? In Texas no less. That fucking sack of shit?
Why? Did Biden try to steal an election?
Republicans claiming to give a shit about democracy is like Jeffery dahmer speaking out against murder.
Complete and utter bullshit.
