Crew represents six Colorado voters ā Republican or unaffiliated ā seeking to remove Trump from ballot over Capitol attack
A watchdog group is suing to remove Donald Trump from the 2024 presidential ballot, saying he violated the constitution and is disqualified from holding future office.
The lawsuit is so far one of the strongest challenges to Trumpās eligibility to seek re-election.
According to the lawsuit filed on Wednesday, the former president violated section 3 of the 14th amendment, also known as the Disqualification Clause, with his involvement in the January 6 US Capitol attack. The section bars any federal or state official that has āpreviously taken an oathā from holding office after they āengaged in insurrection or rebellionā.
I really hope not. Youād think itād be difficult for a rational person to argue that Trump did not incite a rebellion on January 6th, but then again, weāre dealing with the folks who believe Jewish space lasers are a thing.
Yeah seems the best defense is that it is rarely used, which IMO is idiotic. Itās rarely used because presidents generally arenāt openly traitors to democracy and then try to run again.
I bet the case would have looked impossible for Nixon if he had tried, despite what Trump has done is way way worse than Watergate. Watergate is just what Trump does routinely and then brags about.
Jewish space lasers? Iāve been believing in the wrong conspiracies!
