However, a significant concern, as acknowledged by many legal experts, is that the states opting to bar Trump from the ballot are on shaky legal ground, directly contradicting the Constitution.
Despite the uncertainty, Nancy Pelosi asserts that these states have the power to override the Constitution to effectively exclude Trump from their ballots.
From WND:
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Sunday suggested the states can overrule the U.S. Constitution and ban Trump from the presidential ballot.
Pelosi appeared on ABC’s “This Week” to discuss Trump’s Colorado ballot appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court with host George Stephanopoulos.
Last week President Trump asked the US Supreme Court to overturn the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision to bar him from the 2024 ballot.
The Colorado Supreme Court last month disqualified Trump from the 2024 ballot.
On Friday the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear oral arguments in the Colorado ballot case.
The legal theories are based on Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution’s 14th Amendment which states public officials who have “engaged in insurrection or rebellion against” the US may be disqualified from public office.
Pelosi's statement not only underscores the Democrats' desperation to cling to any semblance of power but also reveals their apparent disregard for our Constitution.
