if you are wondering why this is a fair and justified request by german legal system

14th sec 3 patterns of evasion
1. Insurrectionists took office despite being ineligible.
2. Legal maneuvers and influence delayed consequences.
3. Public and congressional action eventually forced removal.
trump attempt to return to office follows the same historical pattern
on balance i agree to focus on best return of effort
14th sec3 is the simplest and fastest option because it requires only a simple majority vote
this is not a legal or constitutional dispute
it is a political failure of congress for refusing to act when scotus put the ball in their court
scotus ruled that states cant enforce 14th sec 3 against federal candidates not that it isnt self-executing
the ruling explicitly left enforcement to congress
that means the law is valid and just waiting on congress to do its job
pretending this is ‘fanfic’ is ignoring constitutional reality
@schumer.senate.gov
simple majority vote and all the problems go away
trump virus eradicated forever
please just schedule a vote
thank you!
14th sec 3 is clear
insurrectionists cannot hold office
this is not legal ambiguity
it is political failure
congress has the power to enforce with a simple majority vote
congress has refused to act
trump remains in office because congress has failed to uphold the constitution
you mean this election data ...
i think we would all
like more details

scotus didnt rule that 14th sec 3 isnt self-executing
they ruled that states cant enforce it against federal candidates
congress must act but that doesnt mean it isnt valid
weak sauce that they avoided deciding whether ‘President’ is an office under sec 3 so that question is still open
you are missing the point
we are already in a constitutional crisis
colorado ruled trump was ineligible to be president but deferred to congress
this has never happened before
the constitution clearly states an insurrectionist cant hold office
this is not resolved
how is that not a crisis?
agreed
scotus isnt absolute and bad rulings get overturned all the time
14th sec 3 is the constitution itself not a court ruling
if its enforced trump was never legally president
period
if 14th sec3 is enforced all of these problems disappear
seems like the fastest and most effective resolution to me
14th sec 3 has no expiration date
it applies from the moment of insurrection meaning Trump was ineligible before he was even elected
scotus never ruled on trump eligibility under 14th sec3 just that states couldnt enforce it
being sworn in doesnt override the constitution
disqualification applies from the moment of insurrection
he was never legally eligible to serve
fair point
referencing the presidential succession act complicates things
the real issue is 14th sec3 disqualifies insurrectionists from holding office meaning trump was never legally president
his admin was unconstitutional from the start and every action including vp appointment was invalid
14th sec3 ineligibility does not expire
it applies from the moment of insurrection
trump was never legally president
his entire administration is unconstitutional and void
14th sec3 disqualifies insurrectionists from "holding any office"
vol 1 proved trump was ineligible to serve
his presidency was unconstitutional from the start
every action appointment and order is invalid including vp
succession laws require a president
insurrectionist cant legally hold office
