weasel out of kicking trump off ballots, which as originalists they should not as the 14A, Sec. 3 is self-executing. There's no wiggle room really. Not even the argument that he didn't participate in the Capitol riot as Sec. 3 also includes the phase of "giving aid and comfort" to the insurrectionists...which he did by watching it for more than 3 hours without calling in forces to stop it.

He's guilty as hell.
