Is Donald Trump's 2024 presidential race in trouble? Legal experts raise doubts

Hindustan Times  

Former President Donald Trump's potential bid for the 2024 presidency faces a new hurdle as legal scholars William Baude and Michael Stokes Paulsen argue his eligibility could be limited by the Constitution. Baude and Paulsen, from the University of Chicago and the University of St. Thomas respectively, contend that Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election could classify as "insurrection," rendering him ineligible under the 14th Amendment unless granted approval by a two-thirds majority in both the Senate and House of Representatives. Insurrection claim challenges Trump's candidacy In their extensive 126-page report, Baude and Paulsen assert that the 14th Amendment "disqualified former President Donald Trump, and potentially many others, because of their participation in the attempted overthrow of the 2020 presidential election." Trump's controversial stance and legal battles Former President Trump, who claims the 2020 election was rigged against him, remains a prominent figure in American politics despite numerous legal dismissals of his allegations.
