A few months back, a friend and Trump supporter claimed that Trump would not be allowed to run for President. My response was that if it happened it wouldn't be coming from Democrats because we WANT to run against Trump. Pretty good track record against him.
Now here comes this 14th Amendment challenge that Republican Conservative Scholars have started.
When I first heard them pushing this on TV, I thought........good luck with that. Don't see how you will ever get that done. But what I didn't fully grasp is that the question of who runs on the ballot is not up to the Federal Government. Its up the each State's Secretary of State. Same way say should Arnold Swartznegger try to run, each state would disqualify him. What if Obama tried to run for a third term? Each state would disqualify him. And it worked that way when the crazy Birther conspiracy thing was going strong. Didn't work because each State qualified him.
So not so sure on the 14th Amendment. The SOS from Colorado certainly seems ready to disqualify Trump!!!
