    I suspect scotus will overturn it. There have been no charges, much less a conviction that would trigger the clause in the 14th amendment.

      It’s pretty telling how far the left will go, it shows how terrified the establishment is of another Trump presidency.

      It already exposed corruption at the highest levels.

      Funny how the left screams “insurrection” over Jan 6 (where these victims were verbally nvited in by security, we have video of them unlocking doors to let people in, and the lies upon lies told about things such as the only death that day was a murder perpetrated by a security guard), but doesn’t see the hundreds of people storming congress years ago as an insurrection because their side did it.

        Enforcing the 14th amendment is not corruption.

        Attempting to overthrow an election is an insurrection.

        Remember recently when people were storm state capitals? I think Thomas Jefferson said it best.

        I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.

        Trump isn’t the problem. He’s the result of problems unsolved.
