ANALYSIS – Is Trump regretting his VP pick? Will Trump tell Vance he is “fired”? When former President Donald Trump selected J.D. Vance as his vice presidential candidate soon after surviving an assassination attempt, some called the choice bold and a doubling down on Trumpism.
I said he could help Trump make his case in 2024 and be the GOP standard bearer in 2028. Still, I also said I would have preferred Trump had picked a woman, and that I had some reservations about Vance as VP, including his youth and inexperience.

With the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to hear arguments over Colorado's high court ruling barring former President Donald Trump from the primary ballot, the betting window is open regarding how and on what grounds SCOTUS will rule.
One interesting theory that ought to get the attention of the self-described constitutional originalists out there comes from this op-ed in The Hill. It gets to the idea of whether Section 3 of the 14th Amendment – as its post-Civil War framers understood it– would automatically bar Trump from a state primary ballot.
Possibly – but extremely unlikely. In 2016, some Republican activists mounted a last-ditch convention effort to change the rules and allow convention delegates to vote their consciences rather than be bound to vote according to the primary and caucus results in their respective states.
Despite some histrionics on the convention floor, the effort failed – utterly and completely. Entertaining the possibility that a GOP convention would even toy with the idea of denying Trump the nomination – if he has the delegates to win – is a fantasy.
That doesn't mean legal maneuvering couldn't try to keep Trump off the general election ballot is one, two, or several states. But such angling may be moot once SCOTUS issues its ruling in the Colorado case.
The authors note that Congress could solved all of this following the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection. But as Congress is won't to do, it did nothing:
Terrible policy, really. But yes, the one we're stuck with. This means that the only way to prevent a Trumpian return to power is to defeat him – again – in the general election.
