So is that your answer to which of the two appears weaker on the world stage? I think that it is not an answer, which, I predicted would happen. I win more threads and posts around here. You are being laughed at,, suggesting Trump did nothing to cool those dictators. The Chinee tariffs? Yeah right, Xi was really laughing. He would not mess with Trump. We are told ...[text shortened]... y to..
Biden appears much weaker , as he is. He is a weak man. Would Sonhouse make his choice?
It's an answer just an answer you don't like, so you pretend no one answered your question. You play this stupid game constantly.

Trump was a fool, a weakling and a coward. He still is and other countries and their leaders don't find that "strong".

That's not what it says:

"Section 3 Disqualification from Holding Office

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 ...[text shortened]... Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability."

Trump is a "person".
What website did you get that from? Post your source.

It's from the US Constitution.

Google it.

Google it.
Did you omit the part that says "official" from the website you copy and pasted that from?

Nope; that's Section 3 of the 14th Amendment verbatim.

But since you want to lie about it, here it is from Congress' website:

"or as an executive or judicial officer of any State"

Trump is not an executive officer.

He is a person though, right?

We all are. Does that disqualify us all from being on the ballot? LOL!
You are so silly!

Your posts are getting stupider by the minute; are you drunk?

Persons who engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the Constitution after taking an oath to support it are barred from "any office, civil or military under the United States".

Did you do so? Then you're not disqualified.

Donald Trump did so, so he is disqualified.

Got it?

Both Free Enterprise Fund v. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and United States v. Mouat define officers as appointees of the president and others.

Trump is NOT an executive officer.

Did you not read what I wrote?

The constitution states that only officials can be banned from being on the ballot because of insurrection. Trump is NOT an official.
It says "officer of the United States".

Explain what the president is, if not an "officer of the United States".

Trump is not president anymore. The constitution does not say "former" officer of the United States so it would not matter if he was. He is not anymore.

Does that seem like a sneaky way to interpret the constitution? So is taking advantage of the lack of the word convicted. Democrats went low enough to place the bar that low so get ready for a taste of your own medicine. Democrats are outnumbered at SCOTUS.

He doesn't have to be an "officer" to be disqualified; just a person who engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the Constitution after taking an oath to support it

Trump is not an executive officer.
The U.S. Constitution specifies the following division of powers: the Judicial, the Legislative, and the Executive. Guess which one the POTUS is.
