I'm proud to be an Originalist AND a Textualist, and as far as I'm concerned, Trump qualifies for insurrection; horses and bayonets are optional, although it wouldn't surprise me if some bayonets had been around on January 6.

I'm not disputing that it says Insurrection to me. But I'm not the justice, or injustice as the case may be.

Spears were and firearms, too, all of which were available in 1776 and before and were "around" and used on 6 January. TFG is reliably reported to have said to remove metal detectors from screening those attending his rally. Does anyone really wonder why?

He gave the game away when he said, "They're not here to hurt ME." He just can't help himself.
