Dave Levitan: Sure would be a shame if every Dem in the House mentioned Trump being a felon over and over and over

Sure would be a shame if every Dem in the House mentioned Trump being a felon over and over and over

“Merely mentioning that Mr. Trump is a felon prompts an admonishment from whomever is presiding when the offending fact is uttered.” www.nytimes.com/2024/06/21/u... 🎁

On the House Floor, Republicans Gag Mentions of Trump’s Convictionwww.nytimes.com During official proceedings of the G.O.P.-controlled chamber, speaking about former President Donald J. Trump’s felony conviction has been forbidden, while disparaging President Biden and Democrats is...

They should add it to the title of every bill going forward… “The House will now vote on the Trump-is-a-Felon Defense Appropriations Bill…”

The “offending fact.” Wear it, motherfuckers.

Surely the fact that convicted felon Donald Trump is a convicted felon is already common knowledge, so there is no additional harm in referring to the convicted felon as a convicted felon even in circumstances not directly related to his felony convictions

Are you suggesting a certain orange shitgibbon is a CONVICTED FELON?

I mean, it's not like an ongoing coup is still unfolding and worldwide movements of rightwing fascist authoritarians or anything.

The Times not calling Trump a felon in its coverage while writing about the house also not calling Trump a felon is a real something something.

John Quincy Adams has a sterling example in this regard that could be followed.

A guy called Bob was convicted of 34 felonies. Not hard to say if you use the "Guy called Bob" test. Trump was convicted of 34 felonies.

Dear Leader shit right there, amazing.

Every one should keep saying it until this nutty rule is withdrawn

The new filibuster.

"Ceterum censeo Trump felo est."

Sure would be a shame if they all looked to John Quincy Adams. I guess we should start petitioning our congress people so they have Petitions to present.

Paraphrasing an episode of Blackadder 3: “It really upsets Republicans when you mention that Trump is a convicted felon.” “So you won’t be mentioning it then?” “Oh absolutely not. Well, not very often…”

Every time they get up to speak about anything
