The Constitution is clear about who can run for president and who
cannot. It says any American citizen can run for president, with
four big exceptions.

Article II of the Constitution lays down the first three. Anybody
can run for president as long as they are at least 35 years old,
are a natural-born citizen and have lived in the United States for
at least 14 years.

After the Civil War, members of Congress added a fourth test. Not
wanting this country to fear that federal officials might again
attempt to overthrow the government, they added the 14th Amendment
which, among other provisions, disqualifies as a candidate for any
federal office anybody who swore to uphold the Constitution and
then sought to overturn it.

The language of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment is clear: ?No
person shall?hold an office, civil or military, under the United
States?who, having previously taken an oath?to support the
Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in
insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or
comfort to the enemies thereof.?

Then Congress added an important final clause: ?But Congress may
by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.?

Which leaves only three questions. First: Did Donald Trump ?engage
in insurrection? and/or ?give comfort to? those who did?
Absolutely. Even though not yet convicted of doing so (which the
Constitution does not require), we know from multiple sources,
including his own words on tape, that Trump summoned an armed mob
to Washington to attack the U.S. Capitol; called state officials
to find him more votes; called members of the Electoral College to
persuade them to change their votes; pressured Vice President
Pence not to certify the Electoral College results; and has
promised to pardon those convicted in the Jan. 6 attack.

Second question: Has Congress by a two-thirds vote given Donald
Trump a free pass? No.

Third question: Do we believe in the Constitution or not? If so,
there?s only one answer.

Banning Donald Trump from the 2024 presidential ballot does not
deprive the people from their right to vote. It simply affirms the
United States Constitution. Case closed.

LOCK HIM UP

They don't get to decide. The constitution does.

The Constitution *has* decided. 14.3 says Trump is ineligible.

Nope.

Yep.

Actually it permits him to run in direct opposition to what you illiterate leftnut bags say.
