The language of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment is clear: “No person

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

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

Libtard legal "scholars" don't confirm anything but their own political biases.

Are these the same ones that claim you have to be in a militia to own
an AR-15?

LOL

Yes that's them. The blind ones who refuse to see individual
responsibility for the misuse of one.
