Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Sunday suggested the states can overrule the US Constitution and ban Trump from the presidential ballot.
Pelosi appeared on ABC’s “This Week” to discuss Trump’s Colorado ballot appeal to the US Supreme Court with host George Stephanopoulos.

The US Constitution has three requirements to be president:
Be a natural-born citizen of the United States. Be at least 35 years old. Have been a resident of the United States for 14 years. Nancy Pelosi however on Sunday said the states can overrule the US Constitution and ban Trump from the ballot.
Even George Stephanopoulos, a lifelong Democrat hack and Deep State asset was stunned by Pelosi’s suggestion.
“You believe [Trump] is ineligible to be president?” Stephanopoulos asked Pelosi referring to the 14th Amendment.
“They have different laws from state-to-state,” Pelosi said.
A stunned Stephanopoulos interrupted Pelosi and said, “It’s the Constitution…”
“That’s not the point,” Pelosi said as she explained that every state has different laws.

Then i guess that means that states can determine their own immigration laws.
Suppose the Supremes rule Colorado and other states must put Trump on the ballot and the states refuse to follow that decision? The end result could very well be a civil war.
Precisely!
The reason for the Civil War has been a popular question for political candidates recently. There were several reasons why the Civil War happened and states rights was definitely one of the reasons.
