quote:Kavanaugh questioned why Trump should be removed from the ballot when he has not been convicted of inciting an insurrection. Kav cited the federal statute for insurrection as a means to that end, and noted Trump had not been charged IAW it.
So your position is Trump did not "engage in insurrection"? That's a fair position, but as far as I could tell it didn't even come up in oral arguments today.

But that doesn't address whether Trump could be found to have "engaged in insurrection" for purposes of the 14th Amendment. The whole point of Section 3 is to disqualify oath breaking insurrectionists even if they have not, or cannot, be convicted.
