Former prosecutor Glenn Kirschner said that while the Constitution states that anyone who engaged in insurrection must be barred from office, it does not say how to implement this.
YouTube channel, Kirschner said that Trump will be met with a"constitutional problem" during his attempt to re-enter the White House because of the 14th Amendment.
A video of former President Donald Trump plays during a hearing by the House Select Committee to investigate the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol in the Cannon House Office Building on October 13, 2022 in Washington, D.C. Trump must not be allowed to run for office again after he violated the Constitution by inciting the January 6 insurrection, according to former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner.
Kirschner noted how Trump told his supporters during his speech at the Ellipse just prior to the riot that they needed to"fight like hell" before urging them to march to the Capitol. "He also assisted the insurrection because once his angry mob was there attacking the Capitol he sent out that tweet: 'to do what needed to be done' to keep me in office, in substance, is what he communicated to that angry mob," Kirschner said."He thereby assisted the insurrection while it was in progress.
"Then he gave aid and comfort to the insurrection later in the day. By saying 'this is what happens when an election is stolen. We love you, always remember this day.' How's that for giving aid and comforting the people who just attacked the Capitol?"
