Will Trump be on your ballot?

Then why didn’t the framers of the 14th amendment say “convicted of” instead of “engaged in”?

I assume they chose the words very carefully.

It has to be determined whether someone engaged in insurrection. They cannot just leave it to someone's opinion. The words chosen at the time were based on those who had been part of the Confederacy which was an easier matter to determine.

Jarod thinks someones opinion is just fine. He thinks because the word "convicted" doesnt appear in the 14 th amendment and "engaged in"does then each state secretary of state gets to decide the issue and screw due process.
 
Here’s another telltale sign of what we’re dealing with in the Republican Party. When asked if they would still support Trump as the nominee even if he was convicted of any of these felonies, 6 of the 8 said “yes”. Christie and Hutchison said “no”.

Now, think about that for a second from the supposed party of law and order. They would still support a felon, CONVICTED BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT, of felonies against the state. Unbelievable.

The party of law and order just divorced itself from the ability to claim so.
 
Interesting question.
If enough Republican SoS’s keep him off the ballot, that opens the door for a Republican besides Trump to be the nominee. ANY Republican would beat Brandon except one… Trump.
Not true. Perhaps a pro choice Republican, but they don't exist.
 
Produce a birth certificate. To suggest a S of S could just unilaterally decide someone isnt old enough is asinine. The same is true for "participation in" insurrection or rebellion. You better have more than your opinion. If you can't see the problems with that then talking with you is a waste of time. Due process doesn't disappear because you "think" some participated in an insurrection.

WHat if there is evidence the birth cert is a fake?

Why do you need to always pretend I said something I didnt say? What is it about your need to pretend...?

Tacit admission that Obama's was?

What of it? Seek other forms of proof. Parents family neighbors swearing under oath on penalty of perjury what the persons age is. Personal opinion is not proof. It after some effort to verify the facts nothing is definite then maybe a committee can decide.
 
Can you prove that this could not be done?

You retard, the Constitution, and every state presumes innocence until proven guilty. You on the other hand, along with the TDS tard crowd presume Trump is guilty of all 90 whatever charges already and that the court process is just a formality. It's that simple.

Leftists HATE due process almost as much as they HATE blacks and America.

Here is part of post #52 which you posted:

"They obviously do not decide based on hair color, they decide based on the qualification requirements. The federal government has some qualification requirements, for example, you must be 35, and born in the United States, and the states themselves have requirements, some states require you to have a certain number of names on a petition, some require you have a major party, backing, and others may have other requirements I don’t know about."

You make excellent points here that the secretaries of state make the decision who is qualified to be on the ballot. You name age And birth place, names on a petition and other things unknown to you. No problems thus far. I would also suspect youd say that another qualification would be not to have engaged in insurrection. True? I think so so will press on.

Now each of the others, age, birth place etc etc can be verified through evidence such as a birth certificate, a petition of names but how does one prove they have not been engaged in an insurrection. I submit not having a conviction would be one from of proof otherwise without a conviction it's only an opinion that someone engaged in an insurrection.

How many do you think he will be found not guilty of or have dismissed?

There it is again. A rightie invoking hate again. As predictable as the sunrise.

Tell us, Yak, you guys are so familiar with hate, what does it feel like to you? Does it eat your guts up? Keep you awake at night?

Don't know, don't care. I really do not give a shit about his legal problems beyond trolling all you TDS'ers out there. I love watching you hand wring and gossip over each detail like it actually matters.
