President Trump was elected democratically by the people of the US, by majority in both the electoral and popular vote.

So? Because he was legitimately elected he can do whatever he wants with no consequences? Multiple lawsuits and inquiries on Trump were stopped when he became president.

Jack Smith also made the clear case to Congress last week that he has the evidence that Trump did try to overthrow the 2020 election and inspired the January 6th insurrection, so he should not have been eligible to run in 2024. He should have been in prison.

  Maybe Colombia could swoop in and abduct Trump... This world is getting crazier by the hour.

    Well Columbia, Mexico and Cuba have been threatened by the Trump administration since Maduro was taken.

      Colombia. It's not that difficult, @goatlover.

        To be fair, the English names for all other places named after Cristoforo Colombo use the English spelling for Christopher Columbus. It might be difficult to remember the (locally-less common) exception. And our primitive spell checkers often cannot deduce from context, as there are many, perhaps most cases, where Columbia is the most-likely correct rendition. Even if we transcend our own difficulties, Siri might defeat us. You are correct that the correct English spelling for Colombia is Colombia, and surely it is problematic to localize a foreign country's name. So please reciprocally acknowledge receipt of our formal request for Colombians to stop calling the USA "EE. UU.", "Estados Unidos de América", and all other such indignities. :)

  I’m sure the evidence for this is as strong as the Russiagate evidence. You don’t see the irony in claiming Trump wasn’t elected in a democratic fashion, by using undemocratic methods to force him out? I see the irony.
