I believe donald trump will not run for president as a republican. desantis or someone else will be the republican candidate instead... however I believe donald trump WILL run for president as a 3rd party candidate.
donald trump is the only person alive right now who even has the slightest chance of winning as a 3rd party candidate. and if a 3rd party candidate wins the election, people could finally realize they don't HAVE to vote for the lesser of two evils anymore. it would be a chance to do away with the awful 2 party system we have now.
of course, all of this is just a prediction, and it likely will not happen this exact way, but it was a thought I had recently and figured I'd share it all with you and see what you all think.
That's interesting. I've never heard that before. Where in the constitution does it state that?
It is tricky to find. Section III (Supreme Court), section 2, paragraph 2: "In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction. IN ALL THE OTHER CASES BEFORE MENTIONED [not just in this paragraph], the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to Law and Fact, WITH SUCH EXCEPTIONS, AND UNDER SUCH REGULATIONS AS THE CONGRESS SHALL MAKE." (emphasis added) Appellate jurisdiction, not original. So, in other words, the Roe vs. Wade issue could have been resolved (I think) by Congress regulating the Supreme Court to never again hear such challenges to States' Rights, or to direct them on how to interpret the law or facts. Such regulation could not be rescinded by any future decision of the Supreme Court. At any rate, it is a power I cannot recall the Congress ever exercising.
