You're being more generous than Cicilline deserves. This is posturing and a waste of time and resources. Really, even based on what you wrote, I think you realize this. It's gaming it all yo score points in a popularity contest which is no better than what Trump always did.

Your question is presumptuous.
I dont want him to run. I think he was instrumental in a bad and moderately dangerous movement. I dont think he is guilty of insurrection (really sedition would be the charge) because he skirted the line very well and frankly if he were he'd be charged already. So, to the point, no he isn't disqualifies under the 14th and this is grandstanding. That doesn't make Trump good or correct or not guilty of bad actions.

I will never understand the love this guy gets. He basically gutted Providence only to be outdone by his successor. He has zero political chops and is as corrupt as Cianci without any of the benefits or like-ability.
EDIT: I love that my comment has been down voted into oblivion. Keep it classy RI.

I didn't say anything of the sort, in fact I said quite the opposite. Your response reinforces my feelings about RI too, because as much as I love this state I'm surrounded by leftist bots and it makes me a little nuts.
Trump handed the democrats the moral high ground by being Trump. Nearly every word he said and every action he took. The democrats, especially the really inept ones like Cicilline, just can't let it be what it is. They need to grandstand and try to make it into something it isn't only to look like fools. I mean, you can buy into it and let them contribute to the divisive stupidity if you want, but it isnt going to make anything any better.

It's always interesting to watch the left be handed the high ground by the right only to cede it right back due to an unending need to grandstand.

This is the most Rhode Island thing ever.
It might be enriched by an old school Stop & Shop sign in the background.

Appreciate the nod, but this isn't our type of redneck. The gold chain and gangsta hat doesn't really fit here (except for one dude, and anyone from the ville would know who that is).
This is the big Woo or West Warwick.
