  • This whole thing is a mis statement of the rule. The only violation Colbert would face, is if the other candidates request the air time, and they denied them. This whole thing is completely blown out of proportion, due to the fact that the election in question, is the democratic primary, not a general election. The two other candidates are Democrats also. I also believe that the FCC couldn’t actually enforce the rule on a primary election anyway, as it is not covered by normal election rules. A party is under no obligation to even hold a primary election, they can nominate any candidate with any rules they see fit.


  • Yes, I agree to an extent. Though, there is a difference between slow walking, small defiance, outright defiance of judicial orders and a full on sizing of power by the executive branch. If a judge uses old laws and does something like issue warrants and arrests executive branch officers or officials, my guess is that the Trump response is to outright seize the judiciary and arrest them. The Supreme Court is already in their pocket, so the crisis I am talking about is essentially a military type coup, ending America as we know it. This would the likely cause a civil war. The underlying problem is that many of the people behind this think that this is okay and are waiting for it. They think they can win.
