There have been a lot of Democrats calling for the 14th Amendment to be used to disqualify Donald Trump from the ballot.
This is a bogus argument, at least for the time being, because Trump has not been convicted or even accused of insurrection.
Trump has been quiet on this front, but that all ended this weekend.
No Legal Basis
Trump used Truth Social to make his announcement.
He stated, “Almost all legal scholars have voiced opinions that the 14th Amendment has no legal basis or standing relative to the upcoming 2024 Presidential Election.
“Like Election Interference, it is just another ‘trick’ being used by the Radical Left Communists, Marxists, and Fascists, to again steal an Election that their candidate, the WORST, MOST INCOMPETENT, & MOST CORRUPT President in U.S. history, is incapable of winning in a Free and Fair Election. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
This is quite possibly one of the most dishonest schemes yet to remove Trump from the ballot.
It is actually sickening that we have members of Congress twisting this to try to justify removing Trump from the ballot.
Let me just say this…
One case has already come before the court on this, and the judge immediately tossed the case out of the courtroom.
Let me be clear… regardless of what Dems are saying, insurrection or a rebellious act against the government must be proven in a court of law to disqualify someone from elected office.
To this point, that has not happened with Donald Trump.
Until it does, this story is fake news.
