He needs to be defeated at the ballot box. Then America can move on as the next generation takes over.

SFC (Join to see) How about this. Beat him at the ballot box or Jack Smith gets a solid conviction in DC. I prefer the latter.

Conservatives are always yelling about "States rights." So should it not be up to the state as to who can be on the ballot?

SFC Casey O'Mally - But those states laws also determine who can be on the ballots.

SFC Casey O'Mally - In Arizona where I now live, the only requirements are dates and percentages of signatures on a petition to be included in the primaries. Can that be changed to include other factors? I don't know.
But, I think we will see the entire 14th Amendment clause be settled, for now, by the US Supreme Court.

SFC Casey O'Mally - By the way, I think the US Constitutional requirements for POTUS were written by men who believed any candidate would be virtuous and honest. Were they wrong?
"No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States."

I think this is a very difficult one to balance. Yes states should be allowed to set how they elect people however for a federal office like president if several states do not allow a person on the ballot for president they could effectively prevent that person from winning despite how the other states vote. I don't think it is fair to other states for anyone but in a general election to keep them off the ballot. I do not think the governor of a state or state legislature should decide, I think it should be the people of the state. Most states it is winner take all on the electoral vote and whether the decision to allow them on the ballot or not if you let the people of the state have a voice at election time it would equate to the same outcome but the people of the state would have their voice heard.

Trump was NEVER convicted with insurrection. He meets all requirements to run. It is illegal to keep him off a ballot just because people don't like him. Justices wins again.
