Ashley Reeb filed the lawsuit against outgoing Louisiana Secretary of State Kyle Ardoin, asking that Ardoin be compelled to disqualify Trump from the state’s ballot because of the former president’s role in the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021.

“Both Trump’s actions (engaging in insurrection) as well as his inaction (giving aid and comfort to insurrectionists) on Jan. 6, 2021, disqualify him from holding any office of/under the United States,” the petition asserts.

“To make an interpretation that a president had engaged in insurrection, and to remove him from the ballot, I think most judges ideologically are just not there,” Collins said.

LSU political science professor James Stoner agreed that the lack of a conviction likely undermines the petition.

“The whole meaning of the rule of law is that a prosecutor can’t just jail you because he thinks you’ve done something wrong,” Stoner said. “That’s only the first step. The prosecutor makes the charge and then it has to go to trial. That’s what happened with the Trump impeachment. The impeachment is a prosecution, but he was not convicted of those offenses.”

There's a reason the word "insurrection" was used from the start. This entire thing was a setup.

Well O'Donnel, Tapper, Scarbourough et al did convict him on the airwaves and on social media. Isn't that enough?

Theres are broader legal threshold questions/arguments at play here than simply the question of whether or not Trump participated in insurrection.

For instance:

quote:

No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.


quote:

member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State

Trump has never held any of these positions. POTUS is generally not considered to be an “officer of the United States” in a constitutional law context under SCOTUS jurisprudence. This section of the 14th amendment does not apply to Donald Trump.
