Tim Kaine believes a strong legal argument can be made to use the 14th Amendment to remove Trump from the ballot in 2024, citing Trump's actions related to Jan. 6

Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia on Sunday said that he believes a strong legal argument can be made to use the 14th Amendment to remove former President Donald Trump from the ballot in 2024, citing Trump’s actions related to the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Shortly after Jan. 6, Trump was impeached by the House of Representatives for inciting an insurrection amid his push to overturn his election loss, with 10 Republicans and all Democrats voting to impeach him.

He denied any wrongdoing, and while seven members of his own party joined Democrats to support his conviction, he was ultimately acquitted by the Senate.

    Oh, well that’s a great argument.

    After all, we know that Republicans in power only misuse power if Democrats have used the same power previously.

      You can’t just say nebulous shit like this. You’re advocating for stripping people of the right to run for office on the basis of an accusation. That is some draconian bs that should not be allowed to happen in any country that values liberty. It’s clearly ripe for abuse. Have some self awareness.
