WATCH A GOP Secy. Of State Get His A*s Handed To Him When He Says Joe Biden Committed ‘Insurrection’

Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft (R) got a lot more than he bargained for when he tried to suggest that President Joe Biden had engaged in an “insurrection” and should be removed from the ballot in his state.

Ashcroft appeared on CNN Monday to discuss his move to pull Biden from the 2024 ballot in the Show Me State, and he was immediately asked by host Boris Sanchez what exactly was his “justification for removing Joe Biden from the ballot in Missouri.”

“Has he engaged in your mind in some kind of insurrection?” Sanchez inquired.

“Uh, there have been allegations that he’s engaged in insurrection,” Ashcroft claimed.

Sanchez: “How so?”

“No. Please let me finish,” Ashcroft insisted.

But Sanchez wasn’t about to let Ashcroft continue, telling him, “You can’t say something like that and not back it up.”

“I am continuing, but you interrupted me before I could back it up. Are you scared of the truth?” Ashcroft said.

Sanchez: “Oh, I am not terrified of the truth at all. It seems like you might be. Let’s hear what you have to say.”

“What did Joe Biden do in your mind that equates insurrection? What allegations are you talking about?”

“They made allegations and all it took for former President Trump to be taken off the ballot in Colorado and in Maine were allegations. We should not be a country that removes people from the ballot based on allegations. I think you can agree with that,” said Ashcroft.

“I think it depends to a degree,” replied Sanchez.

Ashcroft then claimed that Biden was Sanchez’s “guy.”

“My guy? Joe Biden is not my guy. You don’t know who my guy is. The point is, sir, the point is that it’s not clear whether the 14th Amendment is self-executing or not. In other words, it doesn’t matter to a court at that point whether there was a conviction of Donald Trump for insurrection or not. That is a debate for the Supreme Court to have.”
