Keeping Trump off the ballot disenfranchises NO ONE

What was the purpose for the 14th Amendment?
To prevent those who had abandoned offices in the federal government to join the confederacy from returning to office. Well, at least that was what Section 3 was for. The purpose of the 14th Amendment was to grant civil right to the formerly enslaved.
 
We are not talking true belief, we are talking danger. Trump is more dangerous, far more so, than DeSantis.

Correct. President Trump wasn't involved in anything like the Confederacy.
 
Who were the writers of the 14th Amendment referring to when they mentioned "insurrection"?
People who had abandoned offices in the federal government to join the Confederacy. Can we skip the rhetoric and move on? What's your ******* point?
 
Our choices for the presidency are not universal. There are millions of Americans, billions of people, for whom the US Constitution will not allow anyone to vote. We cannot vote for anyone under 35. We cannot vote for anyone who is not a naturalized citizen. We cannot vote for anyone that hasn't been a US resident for at least 14 years. And we cannot vote for anyone who has ever taken an oath to support the US Constitution and then been involved in an insurrection against the US government. Trump keeps screaming that finding him ineligible for office would disenfranchise all his supporters. But no one would be any more disenfranchised by that restriction than they are by the others. The disenfranchised are those who cast valid votes which don't get counted or those who are not allowed to vote at all. Trump did his damnedest after the 2020 election to disenfranchise millions of Biden voters so the claim that he's concerned about anyone's vote rings like a massive bell of dried horseshit.
Trump did nothing of the sort.

President Trump never led anything like the Confederacy. It was a protest by Americans waving American flags.
