A New Anti-Trump Front Opens, Seeking To Disqualify Him From Running in 2024
The New York Sun ^ | July 13, 2022 | A.R. Hoffman

A new effort has commenced in the struggle to block President Trump from running to regain the highest office in the land. In an unprecedented move, a statement has been mailed to every secretary of state in the union asking for their signed commitment to bar Mr. Trump from the ballot.

After disqualification battles against candidates for the House of Representatives from North Carolina to Georgia to Arizona have largely stalled in state and federal courts, the statement signals a new front in the campaign to use the events of January 6, 2021, to shape the future of American elections.

Free Speech for People, the left-leaning legal advocacy group at the van of these challenges, drafted the letter, which takes the style and substance of a law brief. It asks every secretary of state to sign a commitment to bar Mr. Trump from the ballot for “inciting an insurrection.”

The effort is underway despite the fact that, in two impeachments, Mr. Trump was discovered by the Senate to be “not guilty.” If a secretary of state affixes his or her John Hancock to the document, he or she would be affirming in respect of Mr. Trump, “I hereby determine that he is ineligible to appear on the presidential primary ballot in this state.”

The fact that they keep attacking means Trump is a shoe in for '24.

DeSantis will have to wait....

Let the voters decide - what are they so afraid of?

I’ve seen snarky memes on FB that say “Since you conservatives think Trump won 2020, then he is ineligible to run in 2024.”

Translation: “A group of faggots wrote a letter.”

If there is anyone who should be disqualified from running for President, it is any Demonicrat on the basis that they are lying, murdering traitors to the United States.

a statement has been mailed to every secretary of state in the union

Can we get out of the third person and tell it directly?

WHO mailed a statement and why would anyone pay attention to it?

The people involved in this “letter” should be indicted for sedition, tried fairly, then spend the next 10 years in a hard labor prison and that’s the most lenient sentence they should get.

They already stole the presidency from the best President this country has seen in my lifetime. Now they want to prevent him from running again. Definitely sedition and probably treason.

What about as Trump’s VP?

We need to be thinking about 2028. Somebody’s gotta be positioned to get elected in 2028 who will continue to defeat these viscous Leftist jackals and wolves especially because their phony takeover “Great Reset” date is 2030...

If I had FB I’d reply that he should get 2024 and then 2028 to make up for 2020 ...

Absurd.

Trump is not unqualified. He may not be preferred, but he is still qualified and he did nothing wrong on this weak “riot”.

And just disgusting that these commie bastards have the nerve to ban someone from the ballot for childishly perceived transgressions.

Meanwhile their scum are never barred, only defended.

They are also creating precedent for barring globalist traitor candidates from the ballot should CWII not go in the direction that they anticipate.
