Former President Donald Trump should be ineligible to appear on either of Michigan’s 2024 ballots due to his involvement with the Jan. 6 attack on the United States Capitol, according to a lawsuit filed in the Michigan Court of Claims Friday.

The suit hinges on the concept that Trump, during his 2020 re-election campaign – and afterwards, when it became apparent he lost the contest to now-President Joe Biden – engaged in insurrection and should be legally barred from holding office again under a section of the Fourteenth Amendment.

    It’s a Congressional vote to requalify by a 2/3 majority of Congress. Congress can barely figure out which part of the shoes their feet go in let alone vote to redeem Trump’s candidacy for office.

      That’s not the issue, it’s the courts. Especially the Supreme Court, they can throw out any argument for the use of the 14th amendments
