Forget the Trump trials. He might already be ineligible for 2024.

FIFY

It means, people who support BIDEN hate America!

You're not understanding. You or someone said that Trump isn't eligible to be president and I said even Democrats don't think that. They expect him to be the nominee.

It just got real...

But there’s a serious argument that, separate from any criminal charges, Trump is constitutionally disqualified from returning to the White House because of his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the Capitol. And if the Constitution bars him from the presidency, then he’s not entitled to be on the ballot, and it becomes the job of state election officials to keep him off.

Two prominent conservative scholars have added their voices — and, more important, their extensive analysis of the relevant historical record — in support of this argument. They conclude that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which was adopted after the Civil War to prohibit former federal officeholders who joined the Confederacy from holding office again, applies broadly to any “insurrection or rebellion” against the United States and not solely to the South’s secession from the Union.....

These scholars explain in a forthcoming law review article that the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol was an insurrection within the meaning of this clause and, crucially, that Trump engaged in this insurrection within the clause’s meaning, by both fomenting it and failing to exercise his presidential powers to stop it once it was underway. Refuting the view that the president is not an “officer” to whom this provision applies, these scholars cogently note that John Tyler was a former president and John Breckinridge a former vice president who both joined the Confederacy, and surely the framers of the 14th Amendment intended its disqualification from future office to apply to the likes of them.

Two prominent conservative law professors have concluded that Donald J. Trump is ineligible to be president under a provision of the Constitution that bars people who have engaged in an insurrection from holding government office. The professors are active members of the Federalist Society, the conservative legal group, and proponents of originalism, the method of interpretation that seeks to determine the Constitution’s original meaning.


The professors — William Baude of the University of Chicago and Michael Stokes Paulsen of the University of St. Thomas — studied the question for more than a year and detailed their findings in a long article to be published next year in The University of Pennsylvania Law Review.

Conservative Case Emerges to Disqualify Trump for Role on Jan. 6

This is the Federalist Society - the litmus test of any GOP nominee for a judgeship or leadership of the DoJ. They have provided Trump with the list of names from which someone helps him find a nominee.

Check any conservative federal judges bio of the past 25 years, and they will be members.

This is a very public split....it appears as if the Society is reapplying for admission into Civil Society by establishing a distance between themselves and the zombie cult that the GOP has become.

My thread was more succinct.

And I said he is disqualified from running.

In a COMMUNIST country, duck. Glad we could clear that up for you. In the US we don't believe in summary judgements. We have this thing called the 14th amendment that has a clause that deals with something you commies overlook--it is called due process. Now run along. You aren't a Canadian lawyer and it is abundantly clear that you know nothing of the American constitution, legal system or politics. Go spread your ignorance among the democrats--they are familiar with the landscape.

Republilcs and democratic republics always react to attempted coups in the same way that communist states or fascist states react. The traitor is never permitted to use the courts to negotiate.

The only sure means of attaining justice is through the barrel of a gun!

America prepared flawlessly well with 350 million guns to do the job, then Americans sat on their hands and allowed the situation to fester.

Now it's at best a 50/50 chance for democracy to survive.

My thread was more succinct.

It was on a far more elevated level.

Pearls before swine.

 

[Concerned American]

Everyone who has seen a video of the events on Jan 6th KNOWS it was an insurrection.

Everyone? LMAO. Your cult alone. The courts don't seem to side with your take on the riot.

 

[Concerned American]

And I said he is disqualified from running.

But what you say doesn't carry any weight or legal standing. Meh, more howling.

 

[The5thHorseman]

How much of the Jan 6th hearings did you watch?

Because democracy rejected the One Orange Man Band?

my friend

There's that ignorance again. You don't have any friends on this board--least of all would be me.

Someone coined the term, Orange Jesus already today. I like it a lot!

 

[Independentthinker]

And I said he is disqualified from running.

If he is disqualified from running then why do Democrats think he will be the nominee? Obviously, he ISN'T disqualified from running.

 

[Concerned American]

What did you do in support of the US, junior?

 

[Donald H]

One of your six shoes is too tight and it's causing you discomfort my friend. We're going to spare the board the distraction for the rest of the day.

Only the Canadian section is now open for the exchange of our unpleasantries.

First, link? Second, the US is a republic. Now, show some intelligence for a change and run along. You aren't a very quick study.

Off topic!!
Canadian section please!

You are showing your lack of comprehension and by extension your blatant stupidity duck. Asking for a link to your assertion is not off topic nor is correcting your assertion that the US is a republic a Canadian topic. Your post ^^^ however is OFF TOPIC. STFU duck, you're not very good at this.

 

[chesswarsnow]

Sorry bout that,

1. There was no riot, they were waved in.
2. Now then thats settled, Trump didn't instigate the march on Capital hill, people always come to those events, they waved the people in, called it a riot, blamed Trump, otherwise if there was a riot, someone would have brought guns.
3. THATS FINAL!!!!
