"Legal Challenges and Fears Surround Potential Trump 2024 Candidacy"
TL;DR Summary
Legal experts debate whether Donald Trump could be removed from office under the 14th Amendment's Section 3 if he wins the 2024 election, due to allegations of insurrection. Trump's team argues that Congress, not judges, should apply this section, but this could backfire if Democrats control Congress. The Supreme Court may have to decide if the presidency is an "office" under this amendment, amidst claims that Trump's actions on January 6, 2021, disqualify him from serving again.
