In the court filing, Castro argues Trump violated the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which bars anyone who engaged in or provided aid or comfort to an insurrection from holding office.

        This dude is getting paid in exposure. It’s midly amusing that this grift is messing with Trump, but this is nothing but a PR move for a small time lawyer to get news articles about him. Nothing will come of it and absolutely no one should be giving him money for his self serving ways.

      You know what’s better than donating money to a Republican opposing Trump? Donating to a Democrat, because in addition to opposing Trump they also:

      1. want you to marry who you want
      2. want you to be able to afford going college
      3. want you to be able to afford going to the doctor
      4. reduce income inequality
      5. don’t suck up to Russia
      6. care about climate and our environment
      7. want to strengthen the power of labor against capital

      among other things. So why support a Republican who agrees with you on exactly one issue, when you could support a candidate who agrees with you on multiple issues?

      The lawsuit is cool and all, but one of the other articles in my feed is that one billion people are expected to die due to climate change over the next century, and this idiot wants to increase oil and coal production.

      The enemy of my enemy, is still my enemy, not my friend. He may be fighting against trump, but he’s not doing it because he’s a good person, or because he has good intentions.
