With news of the FBI raiding Mar-a-Lago, buzz quickly bubbled up Monday evening about whether former President Donald Trump could be disqualified from holding office again.

The FBI search of the Florida resort was related to Trump's handling of presidential records, including classified documents, after leaving office, sources told CNN. The search warrant was connected to the National Archives, a senior government official told NBC News.

Such reporting had Marc Elias, the top lawyer for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign who has drawn scrutiny for his role in pushing Trump-Russia collusion claims, pointing to U.S. Code Title 18, Section 2071.

As Andy McCarthy stated today, a law passed by Congress, does NOT supercede the Constitution. There are two requirements in the Constitution for eligibility for being President -— 35 years of age, or older, and a natural born citizen. (One of the many reasons democrats want to pack the Supreme Court, and why progressives reeeally want to throw out the Constitution).

I agree with you, but I am concerned that the same Florida judge would rule against Trump. The courts might even say that he has no standing like they did with the 2020 Elections.
