RFK Jr. pulls more votes from Trump than Biden in three-way race: poll
YoBuckStopsHereI think we will have a three way run for President between Biden ( D ), Haley ( R ), Trump ( I ) in November of 2024. Trump will be disqualified in most states preventing him from winning the Republican nomination. He will run independently splitting the right wing votes. Biden goes on to win 45 states.
EverythingispenguinsNope there is no way this is going to happen. So Trump’s eligibility is going to hit the US Supreme Court. It is litigation on the Constitution itself with more or less zero case law around it. This is the kind of thing that every lawyer dreams of putting their name on. It will hit the US Supreme Court and they will take it. So he will be either eligible or ineligible in all 50 states it will not be peace meal.
Now that doesn’t mean that there won’t be a major independent candidate for some other reasons, but for this reason.
ShakeThatYamIt would be pretty hypocritical given that a third of SCOTUS believes in the independent state legislature theory which pretty much lets states legislatures do whatever they want with regards to federal elections. But, that’s probably not going to stop them siding with Trump.
Oh dear, I’m sure they are absolutely terrified of looking hypocritical
