At least twice before, Thomas has similarly defended his failure to make required disclosures as an unintentional error or a misunderstanding of the rules.

Seems like the only possible explanations are that he's lying or he's incompetent.

Being convicted of a crime doesn't disqualify anyone; people have run for President from prison. And most of the people who attacked Congress on Jan. 6 would not be disqualified for it even if they are convicted of a crime for it.

Disqualification is not a criminal punishment. It's not a crime to be 34 years old, for example, or to have been born in another country. But those are still disqualifications, and they are and always have been enforced by the states.

The Room (2003)

Have you ever listened to someone complaining about how their ex mistreated them? The whining, the self-pity, the one-sidedness?

That's The Room. Written, directed, produced, and starring the guy that's complaining.

There's another, much better movie called Disaster Artist that explains how The Room ever got made in the first place.

Nuking Japan was in proportion and in service to the United States' legitimate military objectives.

Lots of potential for accessibility lawsuits, too.

If that's the reason people generally use when they disagree with you then you just might be a fascist.

It is a restriction on free speech, though, however you want to frame it. A free society should not countenance it.
