'Ultimate Hail Mary Pass' - Desperate Democrats' Newest Scheme To Stop Trump Fails

Hey ladies and gentlemen, this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America, and well, the liberals

and the anti-Trump rhinos have a new game. They have a new plan to stop you from voting for former President Donald Trump

There's just one problem with it. It's not going to work. Before we get started, please make sure you like, comment, share, and subscribe

Those little things really help us out, and they help our channel continue to grow

So Asa Hutchinson, the former governor of Arkansas and a guy who's polling at about

1% in the Republican primary, he went on CNN's State of the Union

And I gotta tell you, these networks, CNN, MSNBC, they love guys like Asa Hutchinson

They love guys like Chris Christie, who have no chance of becoming the Republican nominee

for president, but are thrilled to come on their programs week after week and attack Trump

So you don't see them inviting Vivek Ramaswamy too much, do you

No, they invite these guys who are polling in single digits. And they have them on, like Asa was today, and Asa says he believes that even if Trump

defeats all of the court cases against him, even if he defeats all these Sverlis attacks

even if he defeats all the other Republicans in the primary, which seems really likely

given a new poll shows him with, like, a 46-point lead. It's crazy

Even if he does all that, he should still be removed from the presidential ballot, according

to Asa Hutchinson, according to a lot of Democrats, and according to the anti-Trump Republicans

Let's take a look at what Asa had to say, and then I'll explain why it's going to fail

...edge to support the eventual nominee, and you and I both know Donald Trump is far and

away the frontrunner. Are you going to sign the pledge? I'll sign the pledge

I'm confident that Donald Trump is not going to be the nominee of the party, and I've always

supported the nominee, so I'm going to sign the pledge and be on there. It's really fascinating that now we have a number of legal scholars

But if he is the nominee, sir, if he is the nominee, if he is the nominee, will you support him

I'm going to support the nominee of the party. I do not expect it to be Donald Trump, and that, I'm sure, question will come up in the

debate to stay tuned for that. But what I want to point out is I'm not even sure he's qualified to be the next president

of the United States, and so you can't be asking us to support somebody that's not perhaps

even qualified under our Constitution. I'm referring to the 14th Amendment, a number of legal scholars said that he is disqualified

because of his actions on January 6th. So what would you have officials in your state, any other state do based on the 14th Amendment

Would you have them just leave Trump off the ballot, off the primary ballot, off the general election ballot

No, there should be a court declaration, and so there would have to be a separate lawsuit

that would be filed in which there would be a finding that the former president engaged

in insurrection, and that would disqualify him. That's one avenue. The other way would be that if a specific state made that determination on their own

then that would put the burden on someone else challenging that. Either way, it winds up in court for a specific finding, but I expect those lawsuits to be filed

I expect some states to take that action, but I think it's a serious jeopardy for Donald

Trump under our Constitution, not being qualified. Now that all sounds well and good, but the 14th Amendment was written right after the

Civil War, and it was written, Section 3, which he speaks so specifically, was written

to keep Confederates out of the levers of power in government. So it's a relic of the past, and to apply it here is a pipe dream

Jonathan Turley, who is a legal scholar far beyond Asa Hutchinson, said that this would

never work, that this would get challenged and destroyed in court immediately because

it doesn't apply here, and it's basically a last-ditch Hail Mary pass

It's what liberal parents read as a bedtime story to their children at night and kiss

them on the forehead and tell them the big bad wolf's not going to be in the White House again

It's nonsense. But here's the point, the broader point. If he wins the Republican primary, if he defeats these legal challenges against him, if he

does all that, they do not want to give you the opportunity to vote for him

See, I have this crazy idea, and it is crazy. I'm warning you guys right away, it's a crazy idea

But they do this in some countries, and I think we should do it here

What they do is they put the people on the ballot, and then they have the people, like

you and me, they have us vote for who we want to be president

Now it might just work. I know it's wacky, but it might just work

Just let the people, the jury of over 300 million people, let them decide who they want

the next president to be. I mean, how does that sound? I think it could work
