Is Trump constitutionally barred from being POTUS again?

BREAKING: The legal activist organization that developed around the Republican Party in the 80’s, 90’s, and early 00’s is tough on crime. More at 11.

This treating someone as if they’ve already been convicted is dangerous.

This will end badly for the country, no matter what happens. This can’t end well.

Booyah b*tches!

SCOTUS is pretty much forced to weigh in one way or the other. they either have to overturn the ruling and allow him on the ballot everywhere, or if they agree with Colorado they will have to declare him ineligible everywhere. Don’t really see much room for gray area here.

yep

The gangster is bad for the country--that's the key point in all of this. The 14th amendment is pretty clear....

I don’t really see how he can be denied ballot access if he hasn’t been convicted of anything. Obviously he’s a huge piece of **** and January 6th was his fault, but I can’t see how that can be used to deny him access to the ballot.

I hadn’t realized trump was convicted of insurrection.

I hadnt realized he was even charged

 

[volinbham]

never criminally. he was politically charged and acquitted.

Which, frankly, will be good, because it's very ambiguous.

Speedo, he hasn’t been charged.

Hold off on celebrating in the Senate conference room.

So what is to prevent Coloradans(sic?) from just writing him in?

What is to prevent red states from removing Biden?

Some states don’t allow write ins.

I'm completely blown away by the number of people who are no longer for due process....I can't wait till it happens to them...I hope several here have it happen first

The Supreme Court will likely hold that the clause at issue does not apply to POTUS. Hopefully they emphasize that they do not need to reach, and are not commenting on, whether Trump.actually did engage in unlawful behavior.

 

[ClearwaterVol]

Just because an argument can be made doesn’t mean it should. This win at all costs bs is damaging our country irreparably.

 

[rekinhavoc]

Wonder how much he will haul in for this?
