The Character and Eligibility of Donald Trump: A Critical Examination.



I recently wrote a paper that delves into Donald Trump's character and his eligibility to serve as president, particularly in light of the U.S. Constitution's disqualification clause in the 14th Amendment. One of the key arguments I make is that Congress has already ruled, by majority, that Trump incited an insurrection on January 6th, 2021. This ruling makes it highly unlikely that he is constitutionally eligible to serve as president again, given the clear stipulations in the Constitution regarding individuals who have engaged in insurrection. This isn't just a matter of political opinion—it's grounded in historical precedent and constitutional law.



Historically, America's greatest presidents, such as George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, have been revered not just for their leadership but for their strong character. Washington's humility and dedication to democracy set the foundation for the nation, while Lincoln's moral compass and commitment to unity guided the country through its darkest hours. In stark contrast, Trump's actions, both in office and during the events surrounding January 6th, reflect a deeply flawed character. His behavior has been reckless, divisive, and a direct threat to the principles of democracy. For these reasons, I argue in my paper that Trump's character alone disqualifies him from holding the highest office in the land, regardless of political affiliation or policy preferences.
