Trump wants to run for president, but the Constitution keeps coming up.
It's pretty plain, clear and specific: "No person shall . . . hold any office . . . having previously taken an oath . . . (who has) engaged in insurrection or rebellion."
Today, an election officer in Maine called out the president on this disqualifying matter. She said he will not be allowed to run in the state's primary unless the state's supreme court rules otherwise. That makes Colorado and Maine states that have said no to Trump and his insurrection, no to him being on the ballot.
And, it's not over. There are another 48 states and the District of Columbia left. Yes, he just wants to run for president, but how many times is this obstacle going to come up? How many times is this language in Constitution going to triffle with him?
You can almost hear the election officials saying, "Mr. Trump, I know you want on our ballot, but we've got this little matter called the Constitution, Sorry, but it says no."
