In a recent interview on MSNBC’s “Deadline,” former Assistant U.S. Attorney Andrew Weissmann made a puzzling claim. He argued that because Americans lost their lives in the Civil War, leaders who engaged in insurrection, like former President Donald Trump, should be barred from running for office.
This sinister crackpot, Weissmann, was a federal prosecutor for years, destroyed innumerable lives, pushed the Russian collusion lies, and now spews his unhinged buffoonery on television.https://t.co/QdbEOwtWNQ

It’s important to scrutinize such ridiculous statements. The Colorado Supreme Court ruled that Trump engaged in insurrection? That’s quite a stretch of the imagination. These partisan attacks against the former president are nothing more than desperate attempts to silence conservative voices.
The fact is, the insurrection narrative surrounding the events of January 6 has been overblown for political gain. Yes, a group of individuals went too far and stormed the Capitol, but to equate their actions with the Confederacy’s treasonous rebellion is absurd. Trump has always condemned violence and called for peaceful protests, yet liberals continue to cling onto this false narrative.
Weissmann’s claim speaks volumes about the biased mindset of some so-called legal experts. Their agenda is clear: to undermine and discredit conservative leaders at any cost. Thankfully, the American people aren’t so easily fooled. They can see through these partisan attacks and will continue to support leaders like Donald Trump, who fought tirelessly to put America first.
