This man is going to pay all of Trump's legal bills and be his VP

Trump will proceed to die of something hamburger related.

I don't think this would be much worse than the alternatives

You can't be the president or vice president if you weren't born in the USA.

Cruz has an American citizen mother and got his birth certificate instantly when he was born. He was never naturalized, nor did he need to be.

He can stage a rebirth in VR and emerge from an AI generated anime character's womb before rapidly aging into an adult avatar. Boom, done. This is a one line of dialogue fix here people.

This isn’t true, the 14th amendment clearly states naturalized citizens are equal. This very matter is being challenged in the courts now, and hopefully this will be their interpretation. Naturalized citizens shouldn’t be treated as a lesser class, and that’s precisely what the equal protection clause in the 14th is about.

[-] FumpyAer@hexbear.net 6 points 8 months ago

No non natural born citizen has been president and no challenge has been successful yet. It's a strong argument but that's all it is until a challenge successful.

Yes, and it’s super unclear which way the Roberts court will swing on this one. Staying tuned.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
