"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?

Ri Il Gyu, the senior North Korean diplomat whose defection to the South was reported last month, told Reuters that Pyongyang wants to reopen nuclear talks with the US if Donald Trump wins the presidential election in November, in a bid to lift sanctions and unblock economic aid.

This comes as Trump suggested at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee earlier this month that Kim Jong Un likely wanted him back in the White House, as he boasted their alleged close relationship.

North Korea issued a statement through its official KCNA news agency last week saying that Trump had failed to translate his personal bond with Kim into "any substantive positive change," and that it's up to the US to stop bilateral hostilities.

Kim and Trump held the first-ever summit meeting between their countries in Singapore in 2018, but their diplomatic push collapsed after a second in Hanoi in 2019 ended with no agreement.

Late last year, POLITICO reported that the GOP presidential nominee was considering a plan that would see North Korea freeze its nuclear program to keep its nuclear weapons and receive financial aid. Trump claimed the story was a piece of disinformation put out by "Democrat Operatives."
