The Civil War was an insurrection.
With the democrats in charge of the senate and the WH not much left of the constitution.
1. No subsequent Amendment can completely nullify the original clauses. Some cases have never been litigated like the 16th and 17th Amendments.
2. Trump was POTUS on January 6, 2021. He announced his speech. He has full and unqualified immunity. The proper venue for charges of “insurrection” against the POTUS is impeachment.
3. Insurrection involves removing the current executive from office and replacing that officer. Trump, as POTUS, cannot (and obviously DID NOT) remove himself. Trump did not strongarm Trump out of office.
Yes and Trump engineered these indictments to bring forth the irrefutable proof that the election was stolen and to wake the public up.
So what could be considered “irrefutable” evidence? Evidence that would make all 4 indictments go away? Evidence no one could disclaim? The military. The military has the evidence and at some point Trump will roll it out.
Raise your hand if you believe Donald Trump would ever sign on for a prison sentence. Not freaking likely. These cases will never even play out. They are just a vehicle to deliver the goods.
That clause only applies to former Confederates in the post Civil War era.
Nice try, RAT a$$holes.
I don’t care what they try to do. I will write in Trump if he isn’t on the balllot. I will vote dozens of times like democrats do. Screw the left to the wall.
More and more cards stacked against him.
I pray for him every day. He needs our prayers.
Thank you, I appreciate your reply.
Believing it or not is irrelevant, whether it’s true or not is also irrelevant! He had the right to say it! Just like Gore & minions said W was not elected but installed therefore illegitimate. Back then the Rat crowd even had their lawyers contacting and try to subvert sworn W electors. Hellary said there was cheating and did so for 4 years. Hungry hungry Hippo Stacy Abrams is still saying she’s the legitimate Georgia governor. Not one of these people faced legal peril for their actions and statements and neither should they! There’s something called free speech! You’re free to say smart, correct and or stupid things, it doesn’t matter!
Mama Gaia has spoken with a rare, once a century warning.
The pyramid crystal dwellers dare not violate their religion . . . the planet is at stake.
Every indictment is flawed.
Fair election ain’t fair anymore
There was no insurrection, so theres that.... even the FBI reports as such. The President himself urged calm and mentioned that we should be the party of law and order.
Pelosi failed to provide the order, purposely.... lets hang her.
No but Biden could.
Get prepared for the likelihood that there will not be a 2024 election. None of the candidates are really even campaigning. Especially Trump and Biden. What does that tell you?
Ridiculous.
The DemoNaziCommies keep lying, smearing Trump, and trying to reverse history.
Goebbels would be so proud of his progeny
Section 3, Article 14 specifically omits the President and Vice President. It bans insurrectionists from being Electors for the President or Vice President. Also the position of the Presidency has never been considered an “office under the United States”.
It says that no person who has taken an oath “as an officer of the United States” can hold office if they “have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof”.
This is a stretch. By agreeing with the people that were there, and not actually phsically participating in the act, he doesn’t fall under this rule as written as he didn’t engage in the insurrection. I’m sure anyone on this board at some time or another thought that the sitting administration needs to be removed and has openly said it. He gave no aid or comforted them other than agreeing with them and didn’t use anything to promote their actions other than say to use restraint in what they were appearing to start to do by not breaking the law. If that’s the case, then those people on these boards or anywhere else where they think the government was wrong are just as guilty as Trump. 14th amendment. The SCOTUS will have to wade in.

Their purpose isn’t necessarily to prevent former President from getting on the ballot of eleven states, or more. Their purpose is to make his campaign spend the time and resources fighting his suspension from the ballot in these states
