The 14th amendment prohibits it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] bradorsomething@ttrpg.network 6 points 3 years ago (1 child) You are wrong and certain, which makes you dangerous. Unless convicted of these crimes, nothing is stopping him. Basically you are setting the bar so anyone can yell sedition in a crowded theater, and now no one there can be president. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Melody@lemmy.one 1 point 3 years ago No, you are absolutely wrong. Trump HAS charges against him on both state and federal levels. The 14th amendment places no emphasis on a judge finding one guilty. Therefore yes; it can be that broad. We can show he did something; Congress, DoJ and a State would not be investigating otherwise. permalink fedilink source parent
