Why the fuck isn't every democrat saying this every time a microphone in their face? Trump is disqualified under the 14th amendment. This narrative should be pushed by every single person in public office who doesn't want to see fascism return.
They're cowards that don't want to offend their Republican colleagues or Republican swing voters.
They’re waiting until he’s the nominee.
If they are they will just guarantee the Supreme Court forces them to put him back on the ballot while also galvanizing his base even further.
I'm a layperson, this is (mostly) from Legal Eagle.
14A has never been implemented or tested in a court of law. Currently there is no legal mechanism or precedent law to prevent a person from running for office, and trying to set a precedent right now is dangerous because of the right-leaning justice system.
It's a Congressional vote to requalify by a 2/3 majority of Congress. Congress can barely figure out which part of the shoes their feet go in let alone vote to redeem Trump's candidacy for office.
That's not the issue, it's the courts. Especially the Supreme Court, they can throw out any argument for the use of the 14th amendments
The oligarchs won’t let them.
