A Republican official in Missouri has threatened to give President Joe Bidenthe same treatment that Democrats are giving to former President Donald Trump as the 2024 election draws closer. Democrats and anti-Trump Republicans have been engaged in a nationwide effort to remove Trump’s name from the ballot in as many states as possible using the 14th Amendment as their justification.
On Friday, Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft wrote a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, referencing decisions made in Colorado and Maine to disqualify Trump from seeking office and indicating Republican officials in other states might do the same.
What has happened in Colorado & Maine is disgraceful & undermines our republic. While I expect the Supreme Court to overturn this, if not, Secretaries of State will step in & ensure the new legal standard for @realDonaldTrump applies equally to @JoeBiden!
