Hawaii Democrat introduces bill to ban Trump from ballot Hawaii considers legislation to ban presidential candidates over 14th Amendment's insurrection clause

A Democrat-sponsored bill in Hawaii that could ban former President Trump from the ballot for allegedly inciting the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol advanced in the state legislature Monday.

Hawaii state Sen. Karl Rhoads, a Democrat representing Honolulu who frequently criticizes Trump and Republicans over the Jan. 6 riot online, first introduced SB 2392 last week, which aims to "specify that election ballots issued by the chief election officer or county clerk shall exclude any candidate who is disqualified under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States; article XVI, section 3 of the Constitution of the State of Hawaii; or another constitutional or statutory provision."

The bill does not explicitly name Trump, but Maine's Democratic Secretary of State and Colorado's Supreme Court cited the insurrection clause in barring Trump from their state ballots.

These RATS are smoking too much weed. Every one of them are willing to look foolish by trying to get Trump thrown off the ballot. I’ll tell you fascist Nazis something. I’m voting for Trump whether he’s on your azhoes ballot or not. Embrace the Suck, Sucker.

What are they trying to do, prevent Trump from winning a rabid democratic state? Not going to win it on or off the ballot.

This last week the Left was preaching federal supremacy. 14A specifically calls out the Congress, not the state legislatures, to implement through legislation. Any state enactment would necessarily be void.

Democrats are afraid, very very afraid. If we thought 2020 was a fraud, we haven’t seen anything yet of what they are capable of in 2024.

I wonder if he realizes that we don't vote for Presidents, but electors of Presidents:

Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress:

The Congress may determine the Time of chusing the Electors, and the Day on which they shall give their Votes; which Day shall be the same throughout the United States.

There is no bottom depth to the illiteracy, degeneracy, and immorality of the modern DemocRAT. Bring it, Obamahole, we may as well get CW -II over with sooner rather than later.

Bottom line: Not a legitimate election if Trump is removed from the ballot.
