If these are “legal scholars” they should realize he is innocent until proven guilty.

The projection and transference is just too much. Godless socialists.

Let’s play the game:

On May 31, 2020, St. John’s Episcopal Church in Washington, D.C., was burned in a blatant act of insurrection. As a result and out of precaution, the duly elected President of the United States was taken to a secure location due to the threat of violence against him and against the government. Every standing member of the Democrat party praised this action against the President, and by extension the Federal Government.

Therefore, persuant to the 14th Amendment of the United States, no member of the Democrat Party is permitted to hold office, since they are guilty of giving aid and abetting those individuals who mounted an insurrection against the United States and her citizens.

The Marxist Dems are saying and doing anything to keep Trump from being elected. They are determined to establish a Marxist Gov’t here in the USA.

CNN lacks all credibility and quite honestly anyone that repeatedly appears on CNN in an analysis capacity does not perform analysis. They regurgitate the Marxist talking points that CNN perpetuates 24/7. Any analyst that deviates from those talking points in any significant manner is never to be seen on CNN. The same is true on MSNBC and FNC, but there is a difference on FNC. FNC is focused on globalist, neocon talking points with a smidgen of capitalism thrown in so their simpleton audience doesn’t completely vanish.

The 14th Amendment clause dealing with “insurrection or rebellion” pertains to Confederates and the Civil War!

“Jan 6” was a nothing-burger, and not an insurrection! It certainly was not the Civil War! And Trump called for a peaceful demonstration!

These “legal scholars” are all wet, and are hyper-partisan Democrats to boot. No one should listen to them! And it’s too bad that “The Atlantic” has sunk so low!!

"argument that Trump should be barred from presidency"

Yes, because he is a threat to the corrupt political establishment and its toadies and could bring their gravy train to a halt.

No wonder they're determined to bar him from the presidency.

A ridiculous argument. Stupid as a used meadow muffin. But getting Trump out by any means possible is the DNC conspirators’ number one objective. They’re not stupid. They see he’s beating any possible D candidate hands- down. If he stays in the race, the DNC will need to rely on its Election Theft Machinery again

Laurence Tribe is not a legal scholar— he is a very OLD, crackpot demo machine mouthpiece. With the personality of a turd in a punchbowl— smarmy, mouthy and a one note samba of absolute BS.

It’s odd what the promise of continuing grant money can buy on campus.

Looks like they overlooked constitutional scholar Jeffrey Toobin ... CNN didn’t ask Toobin with what opinion he had derived?

Did they bother to read the article they are supposed experts in?

“Section 3.
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.”

Note that it does NOT specify a president breaking his oath. (The office of the president is disallowed for those who are disqualified by this article.) Even if there was any truth to the idea that President Trump engaged in an insurrection (because he definitely did not), this clause does not apply to someone who merely held the office of the president.

It DOES apply to Pelosi and Biden because of their oaths as senators. But President Trump never took an oath of office in any of the categories listed.

How is this enforced? Could the VP refuse to recognize his electors? Wouldn’t that be ironic.
