Bobb seems to be arguing that even an insurrectionist should be allowed to run the country, which could be seen as an admission of guilt.

Pretty big stretch there, Armstrong.

I get it. We all want this to end. This is some click bait, though.

It’s things like this that make me love comments on these posts.

How do you look at this guy, see who he's surrounded himself with, who he's removed himself from (genuine good lawyers) and replaced them with (parking ticket, failed parking ticket level lawyer), and think that he would be able to choose the best people to run actual government departments? Especially after the first 4 years when he failed spectacularly at it.

“The president is elected by the entire nation, and it should be the entire nation who determines who they want for president, whether they are guilty of insurrection or not,” Bobb said during an interview on Real America’s Voice. “It’s up to the people.”

I'd say she's an idiot for not knowing about the electoral college...

But apparently neither did Hilary or her campaign team in 2016

My president is not an insurrectionist. He may be a liar, a pig, an idiot, an insurrectionist... but he is NOT a porn star.

Their defense is not that he is not guilty of insurrection. Their defense is “we know he is guilty of insurrection. So what? We will still vote for him”.

Because he is, not even a scumbag lawyer can say he's not.
