It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Can he even run? I thought he was born in Turkey.
He was and is not eligible under current laws (as he has been told repeatedly by state election officials). The only good thing to possibly come out of this campaign is getting that law changed, but don't hold your breath because burgerland is way too fucking racist on aggregate to possibly tackle that.

Say hello to the candidates for 2028:
Guialinsky 2028
Oh god, repealing that law is going to open the way for Elon Musk to run isn't it.
Honestly Guaido is probably still to the left of a lot of ppl in the us lol
If that law gets repealed Elon is the republican president in 4 years.
He'll get campaign finance reform successfully done before he gets naturalized citizen presidential candidates lol
Is this one of those greater infinities questions?
Countably infinite vs uncountably infinite, definitely. I haven't thought about set theory in ages bahahaha.
I think it's one of those things where he could run but legally he can't be president. I have no idea honestly. It was a blip in conversation about how Gruesome Gavin should run because he's hot and who the hottest president was.
his argument iirc is that that clause should be considered overturned by the 14th amendment (?) which guaranteed equal protection under the law to naturalized citizens or something.
He also cited like 4 other examples of people being elected despite having outright fake or tenuous claims to being born here
