It’s very clearly there in the 14th Amendment.

The alt-right SCOTUS likes to ignore black-letter law that forbids GOP criminality.

What’s clear in the 14th Amendment is that Congress is authorized to enact legislation to enforce Section 3 – which Congress has failed to do.

So yes, it’s possible to pass legislation whereby convicted felons and insurrectionists are ineligible to run for public office – the problem is Republicans would oppose such legislation.

Driven by lust of power that I can tell. In which case, our Democracy, Constitutional rule of law and the Bill of Rights are very endangered species.

You want a prosecutor in Burning Cross County Alabama to file make believe charges against a DEM politician, get the automatic guilty finding and they're banned from running?

Bad idea.

It's called unintended consequences.
