Yeah but if they're disqualify candidates for whatever arbitrary reasons what's stopping them from doing that to any American-left parties?

Yeah, of course. Leftist parties would absolutely be the first to go, if there was any chance of them getting anywhere. LOL. Putting up with this shit is a terrible idea, "even" if it's Trump they are "disqualifying". Eugene Debs being able to run from his prison cell was, in fact, a good thing.

I was just playing along with the hypothetical.
