He summarized the article’s conclusion: “Donald Trump cannot be president — cannot run for president, cannot become president, cannot hold office — unless two-thirds of Congress decides to grant him amnesty for his conduct on Jan. 6.”
I think you would need to be charged and found guilty and the first has yet to take place. I hope him and Biden would walk away and let youth run for office.Two law professors active in the Federalist Society wrote that the original meaning of the 14th Amendment makes Donald Trump ineligible to hold government office.
Two prominent conservative law professors have concluded that Donald J. Trump is ineligible to be president under a provision of the Constitution that bars people who have engaged in an insurrection from holding government office. The professors are active members of the Federalist Society, the conservative legal group, and proponents of originalism, the method of interpretation that seeks to determine the Constitution’s original meaning.
The professors — William Baude of the University of Chicago and Michael Stokes Paulsen of the University of St. Thomas — studied the question for more than a year and detailed their findings in a long article to be published next year in The University of Pennsylvania Law Review.

The two law professors and members of the Federalist Society make a good case.
Section Three of the Fourteenth Amendment forbids holding office by former officeholders who then participate in insurrection or rebellion.
If Trump does not fit this to a T, not sure what else does.
Was their an insurrection? You mean with guns andGood thing Trump was never a part of an insurrection.

There was no fucking "insurrection" nitwit
She is a member and well groomed.Yep. The Federalist is hard core.

What’s the Fake News part? They aren’t affiliated with The Federalist Society? They didn’t really say what they said? That’s what someone told you to say? Which is it?^^^Fake news from a real idiot.

Hence the need for speedy trial, so a potentially ineligible candidate can’t waste our time running for an office they can’t hold.Until Trump is convicted of insurrection he's eligible to run. Not a single J6 mostly peaceful protester has been charged with insurrection. That should tell you everything you need to know about J6.
He hasn't even been charged with insurrection.Hence the need for speedy trial, so a potentially ineligible candidate can’t waste our time running for an office they can’t hold.
The problem I have with this is that he has not yet been proven guilty of participating in ... well, anything yet. This is a legal issue, and legally he — like all of us — is legally innocent until proven guilty.Two law professors active in the Federalist Society wrote that the original meaning of the 14th Amendment makes Donald Trump ineligible to hold government office.

There is, the article said, “abundant evidence” that Mr. Trump engaged in an insurrection, including by setting out to overturn the result of the 2020 presidential election, trying to alter vote counts by fraud and intimidation, encouraging bogus slates of competing electors, pressuring the vice president to violate the Constitution, calling for the march on the Capitol and remaining silent for hours during the attack itself.
“It is unquestionably fair to say that Trump ‘engaged in’ the Jan. 6 insurrection through both his actions and his inaction,” the article said.’

This is all moot, of course, since there is no Federal statutory authority to enforce Section Three of the 14th Amendment, although Section Five of the 14th Amendment authorizes Congress to do.
The states are at liberty to prevent an insurrectionist from running for president pursuant to Section Three, but that would be subject to protracted and inconclusive court challenges – and not all the states would act to enforce Section Three.
'Cause he never did any of those things.Well isn't that a blessing. He hasn't been charged with a lot of things he did. Bribery, corruption, abuse of power, obstruction of justice.
Innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. It's an idea that liberals hate.Well isn't that a blessing. He hasn't been charged with a lot of things he did. Bribery, corruption, abuse of power, obstruction of justice.
Yes and I would respectfully correct that phrase to: "Innocent UNLESS proven guilty."Innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. It's an idea that liberals hate.
