The Supreme Court has announced it will consider Donald Trump’s appeal of the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision to bar him from the state’s ballot under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) tells MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart that the question the Justices have to answer is: “are we going to follow the Constitution?”

The truth is that every elected democrat nationwide is disqualified for political office.
The reason is simple; perjury. Every officeholder is required to take an oath to uphold the laws in their jurisdiction, whether local, county, state or federal, yet every elected democrat once in office does everything they can to ignore, overturn, nullify, eliminate, subvert or violate the terms of their office. Whether its municipal or town ordinances, or state or federal constitutions, members of this specific political party have been working for decades to destroy the Republic in whatever way they can.
That’s what makes them ‘disqualified’ from holding public office.
In fact, most of them should be prosecuted for their failure to uphold the law and the terms of their Oath of Office.
This sh*t stain is appearing everywhere now. He’s the DS designated mouthpiece.
NPR and Raskin did see fit to link Raskin’s sorrow over his son’s suicide with his determination to bring down President Trump after J6. Quite pitiful, but Raskin really thinks highly of himself, and NPR agrees.

If you hate democracy, vote democrat. They will take care of it.
Even if there was proof positive offered that Trump participated in an insurrection the amendment does not apply to ex presidents. That is the plain language which so many miss.
These Communists need to be put down.
Did you link to the wrong article? Where is the title you quoted in the article?
In the end the biggest losers will be Biden and all of those Republicans participating in this Biden manipulated primary instead of getting behind the victim of this election interference. If they really were against government control they would be saying “We are all Trump!”
“Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) tells MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart that the question the Justices have to answer is: “are we going to follow the Constitution?””
This guy has been wearing his do-rag too tightly.
Enough for him to forget about his "concern" for his precious "law"..
When a rat swears allegiance to our Constitution, rest assured they’ll continue to lie.
Raskin has had his head rag on to tight to long he’s just another Joe Biden.
Yeah, rASSkin, that pesky Due Process Clause of the Constitution
Always getting in the way of state supreme courts and secy of state on Federal election issues
The three probably being Sotomayor, Kagan, and Brown.
RatSkin bleats.
/eyeroll
Good to know thine enemies.
That’s Baltimordor to those of us who know.
Too bad Ratskin doesn’t know the law.
I am not arguing with you, I just want to make sure I understand the argument about ex-presidents so I can use it.
Below is the text of the 14th Amendment, but I can't find it. Am I missing it, or are you talking about some other amendment?
Thanks.
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice-President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State.
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.
The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.
The Congress shall have the power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.
“DISQUALIFIED FROM OFFICE?”
WTH does that mean? Isn’t that disqualified FOR office?
Raskin you are a MORON. GO AWAY.
