Trump has never been tried and convicted of any Federal crimes. Accused is not convicted.
No state in the U.S. has any standing to disqualify him.
However, a precedent IS being established. Supreme Court can easily overturn Trump's removal from the ballots. The Supreme Court will probably rule that no qualified citizen may be removed from a Federal ballot unless they have been convicted of Federal crimes.
This will bite Democrats hard when Joe Biden is tried and convicted of Federal crimes. Biden can be removed from state ballots and there's nothing he can do to stop it. That may also occur in July or August... too late to put anyone else on the ballot in Biden's place. Also, Democrats established a precedent for not allowing write-in votes.
