Trump, the 14th and barring from office

Retard, an amendment doesn't pass until the states ratify it. Congress only passes a proposal for an amendment.

Dayum, you're too thick to let any knowledge get in.
Passed by Congress June 13, 1866, and ratified July 9, 1868, the 14th Amendment extended liberties and rights granted by the Bill of Rights to formerly enslaved people.

Retard, they passed a proposal for an amendment. They didn't pass the amendment, the states did that 2 years later when they ratified it.

But tell me again how a Republican lawyer is really a Democrat.

OMG, congress can PROPOSE an amendment, which is a worthless piece of paper, UNTIL, it is ratified by 3/4ths of the STATES. It's not a law, it's simply a proposal to be submitted to the States for their consideration and possible ratification. If it's not ratified by a sufficient number of States during the term specified, it's as if it never existed. Is that simple enough for you to understand? You didn't read Article 5 of the Constitution, did ya?

Last time I'm going to address this. Tell the class what president signed your supposed law.

Article 5

The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as Part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses in the Ninth Section of the first Article; and that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of it's equal Suffrage in the Senate.

Jason Murray

‘NOT HIGHFALUTIN’​

Murray, 38, will argue on behalf of Colorado voters who are challenging Trump’s eligibility. He’ll be making his Supreme Court debut in one of the most closely watched cases the court has heard in years.

The majority of Murray’s legal experience has been as a trial lawyer handling commercial litigation for the law firm Bartlit Beck LLP, which is based in Chicago and Denver. Last year, he left that practice to form a boutique firm, Olson Grimsley Kawanabe Hinchcliff & Murray LLC, which seeks “to hold the powerful to account.” Murray declined to comment for this story.

Murray, a graduate of Harvard Law School, is not without experience with the justices, having clerked for two of them, each on a different side of the ideological spectrum. He clerked for Justice Neil Gorsuch during his stint on 10th Circuit U.S. Court Appeals and clerked for Kagan at the Supreme Court.
In a 2017 op-ed in the Washington Post, Murray argued for then-nominee Gorsuch’s confirmation, saying that despite the differences in their politics, his two former bosses shared a common “zeal” for the rule of law.
“For both,” he wrote, “the goal was to reach the correct legal result, rather than advance any political party’s agenda.”

Agree to disagree it has to be passed by Congress first.

If you read article 5, there's no presidential signature required, a president has to sign a law. And yes it requires a 2/3rds vote in both houses, you could call it passed, or you could call it agreed to, but neither automatically make it a law. In the case of the 14th amendment, ratification authorized congress to pass laws to enforce it. So ratification only made it part of the constitution with no force of law, until congress passed the laws and the president signed them. So no, I don't agree to disagree, you're just wrong on this one.

Without it being passed by Congress no state can have an input. It's also a law because it's in the constitution which is the supreme law of the land

Actually if you bothered to read all of article 5, 2/3rds of the States can propose an amendment with no input from congress. Under our Constitution the States are the highest sovereign. They can change the Constitution without any input from any branch of the federal government, if enough agree to do so. Unfortunately, in today's political climate, I don't see 3/4ths of the States agreeing on much of anything.
