"Harvard Law Professor Debunks Trump's Legal Claim with One Word"

TL;DR Summary
Harvard Law Professor Laurence Tribe called Donald Trump's argument against being disqualified from the 2024 election ballot for inciting the January 6th insurrection "absurd." Tribe explained that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which bans individuals who engaged in insurrection against the Constitution from holding office, clearly applies to Trump. He criticized Trump's claim that the provision doesn't apply to the president and his belief that he never took the required oath as "ridiculous arguments." Trump faces legal challenges in multiple states regarding his eligibility for future elections.
