'Then we need bodyguards for everybody in civil war conditions'

With results from the 2024 presidential election now imminent, Democrats have been vocal in their plans to subvert the will of the American people and prevent former President Donald Trump from retaking the White House if he pulls out a win over his Democratic rival Vice President Kamala Harris.

In a February opinion piece by Russel Berman, published by the Atlantic, it details how the Democrats could could try to disqualify Trump if the U.S. Supreme Court didn't declare Trump ineligible to run for president.

The 14th Amendment of the United States Constitution bars anyone who has "engaged in insurrection" against the U.S. Those found guilty of such an act are unable to run for civil, military, or elected office without first gaining the approval of at least two-thirds of the House and Senate.

Berman states that during the end of the Supreme Court arguments concerning Trump's exclusion from the Colorado ballot as an insurrectionist, attorney Jason Murray – who represented Colorado voters – told the justices they would have another J6 situation on their hands if they refused to disqualify Trump. Murray told Berman the decision would "come back with a vengeance," when Congress meets to count and certify the Electoral College votes.

According to Murray, a Trump win would cause a "constitutional crisis in Congress," where Democrats would have to choose whether they confirm someone they "believe is ineligible," or defy the will of the people.

"Democrats have a serious chance of winning a majority in Congress in November, even if Trump recaptures the presidency on the same day. If that happens, they could have the votes to prevent him from taking office," Berman wrote.

However, despite House Democrats and a handful of Republicans attempting to impeach Trump in 2021 for "inciting insurrection," Trump has never been convicted of insurrection in a court of law, nor has he ever been indicted on an insurrection charge.

U.S. Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., said the Supreme Court is refusing to do its job by pretending Section 3 of the 14th Amendment "doesn't exist," and the justices' refusal to interpret the meaning of the amendment will lead to civil war.

Anything the Dems do against Trump, the Republicans will do to the next Dem President.

Eventually I've been coming to believe the US system will morph into a Parliamentary style system where the majority party/coalition elects the head of state. Just wait until a viable 3rd party is able to force contingent elections.
