Again, as I said to Tom below, when you...


...start a post with "so", you've already lost. That's just a way to reframe and misstate someone's views so that you can attack a strawman.

My point is simple. If Hawley's/Cruz's constitutionally protected right to contest an election is sedition/insurrection, then so would be the use of the 14th amendment to do the same. In both instances, legislators are being asked to "overturn the will of the voters". Likewise, the Dem election contests made to the 2000, 2004 and 2016 Congressional certifications following Republican election victories would also be sedition/insurrection. Of course, no one calls those contests insurrection because reasons.

On the other hand, if Hawley's/Cruz's contests were not sedition/insurrection, then there is no 14A case.

It's one or the other, unless you want to apply a double standard.
