Court arguments are beginning in the effort to bar former President Donald Trump from running for his old job again
FILE - Attorney Eric Olson chats with associates while waiting to argue for a lawsuit that seeks to keep former President Donald Trump off the state ballot on Friday, Oct. 13, 2023, in district court in Denver. A Colorado judge has rejected the attempt by Trump to dismiss the lawsuit, ruling that his objections on free-speech grounds did not apply. from running for the White House again enters a new phase this week as hearings begin in two states on lawsuits that might end up reaching the U.S.
That means the Colorado and Minnesota cases are taking a more legally sound route to get courts to force election officials to disqualify Trump, as opposed to other lawsuits that seek a sweeping ruling from federal judges that Trump is no longer eligible for the presidency. “By instigating this unprecedented assault on the American constitutional order, Trump violated his oath and disqualified himself under the Fourteenth Amendment from holding public office, including the Office of the President.”
The provision allows Congress to grant amnesty — as was done in 1872 to allow former confederates back into government — which has led some to argue that it has no power without an enabling act of Congress.
