The Florida governor has struggled to break into Trump’s lead and his campaign has been burning through money.

Trump being the republican candidate is a Constitutional Crisis. The 14th, section 3 CLEARLY states
#Section 3 Disqualification from Holding Office
No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.
But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.
So unless trump can get 2/3rds vote in both houses to re-qualify him, he is ineligible to hold any sworn office in the United States Of America.
The Constitution is not the bible. The right wing does not get to simply ignore the parts it dosen’t like.
Go back and read the first section to the 14th.
Due process would require being convicted in some form of trial- either an impeachment trial or criminal trial before the disqualification comes into play.
As much as i dislike trump, as much as I feel he’s entirely the wrong person for the job- and indeed is a traitor- due process is important here and he really needs to be convicted first.
Until that happens, it’s wishful thinking.
