    There was no loophole, all of it was made up and Biden refused to call their bluff.

      “Insurrection Act only means the person can’t hold office, it doesn’t mean they can be removed from a ballot” Yah, okay.

        You’re talking about the insurrection clause. Which definitely doesnt forbid removal from a ballot. And, obviously it should mean Trump doesnt get to be sworn in as president, its very unambiguous there. But also theres other laws against insurrection that should be putting Trump in jail https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/2383
