People in different states are considering challenging Trump's eligibility based on the 14th Amendment's prohibition of people who 'engaged in insurrection or rebellion.'
During an interview on NBC News’ “Meet the Press,” host Chuck Todd asked Sununu, who governs the state with the first primary and the second contest overall in the 2024 Republican nomination process, whether the debate on using the 14th Amendment could potentially have an impact on whether Trump appears on the ballot.
“It’s a very open, very easy process for a lot of folks to partake in, and so I see no reason why he wouldn’t be on that ballot,” Sununu added. “They’re litigating it against the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and therefore would be applicable to all 50 states,” he said. “So no, I fully expect that the former president to be on our ballots.”
