Liberal Lawyers Urge Longshot Nuclear Option To Stop Trump From Taking Office
"Two liberal attorneys claimed Thursday that Congress can still prevent President-elect Donald Trump from taking office — and elect Vice President Kamala Harris in his place — if they act fast.
Congress can reject electoral votes on when they gather to certify

them on Jan. 6 because Trump is disqualified from holding office under 14th Amendment, which restricts anyone who took an oath to support the Constitution and then “engaged in insurrection” from holding office, attorneys Evan Davis and David Schulte wrote in a column for The Hill.
The Supreme Court rejected Colorado’s attempt to remove Trump from the state’s 2024 ballot in February. The majority held that Congress must pass legislation in order to enforce Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.
Colorado was one of multiple states that attempted to remove Trump from the ballot early on in the election.
Several top Democrats told Politico on Thursday that they do not intend to object to Trump’s win."
