"We are confident that the fair-minded Supreme Court will unanimously affirm the civil rights of President Trump, and the voting rights of all Americans."

"[T]he legal arguments against disqualification are ultimately unsound, and most are very weak."

"[M]y bet is that... even the liberal justices will lean toward allowing voters to decide whether Trump is fit to be president."

Barring Trump from public office "would be the mildest of punishments."

The Jan. 6 riot "is something that could disqualify him, under our rules, and under the constitution."

"The former president's efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election, and the resulting attack on the US Capitol, place him squarely within the ambit of the disqualification clause."

"[A] plain and fair reading of Section 3... demonstrates that Trump is constitutionally disqualified from holding future public office."

"I think it's really actually very clearcut... [Section 3 is] in general language, and so it applies to anyone who incites an insurrection or rebellion."

Will Donald Trump Be Disqualified From Holding the Presidency?

During a campaign stop in Philadelphia, former President Donald Trump confidently stated to NBC News that he knows [in his mind] who his pick for vice president will be. He added that “nobody knows” who the choice is.

Trump told reporters that he has not yet informed his running mate, but he said his choice is likely to be present in the audience Thursday's presidential debate. "They'll be there,'"he said. "I think we have a lot of people coming."
