I have posted the 14th Amendment Disqualification clause. In brief: Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment gives Congress the power to disqualify someone who has already held a public office from holding "any office" if they participate in an "insurrection or rebellion" against the United States. https://constitution.findlaw.com/amendment14/annotation15.html Not general purpose felony conviction.

The people who in the main supported Trump don't care who busted the unions. They just want someone to tell them you got screwed and I'm gonna do somethin' about it.

Americans get to vote. I voted against Trump twice. Because of Patriot Act implications, I may not be voting ever again.

OK just to note that Rachaphruek is only 1 km from Srinagarind if you need to look at other options.

To a post just above, this from April 2016: Trump overwhelmingly leads rivals in support from less educated Americans Apr 3, 2016 6:52 PM EDT (Professor) Cramer explains, “These are folks who have been feeling a real struggle to make ends meet for decades now and they see a candidate coming along who says to them, ‘You’re right. You’re not getting your fair share. It sucks. And I’m going to stand up for you.'” https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/trump-overwhelmingly-leads-rivals-in-support-from-less-educated-americans I will just add, simply put, for decades there was blue collar manual work at good union wages for those with only high school level. Enter Trump.

When I soundly went to sleep the evening of NOV 8, 2016 Thai time, the New York Times polling was saying 90% chance of Hillary Clinton winning the Presidency. A big topic was what would be the proper titles for President H. Clinton and her spouse Bill post-election. When I woke the next morning Thai time, the NY Times was saying 90% chance Donald Trump will win the Presidency. So regardless of the probabilities, could this happen again? Yes.

The issue may not be the nuts & bolts of the case but procedural issues -- the Corcoran Washington grand jury testimony may not be allowed and the "slam dunk" audio tape may not be so slam dunk after all.

The question I responded to was: Who can give this buffoon any credibility? That's the problem: Lots of people. And I'm not a poster from Scotland who needs to have the popular and electoral vote explained to me.

You asked: How could America stoop so low as to give this obnoxious buffoon any credibility??? well about half the country did in 2020 and most of them maybe are still there. I spent lots of time in Florida counties that went for Trump 80% and even 90% in 2020. Thankfully well after I left US as my place of residence.

Well here is a partial answer from 2020 presidential election. Kansas metro area counties blue for Biden -- Counties red for Trump. Trump won roughly 56% to Biden's 41%.

Well Srinigarind is a BIG hospital. I would check if the insurance would do direct billing to a public hospital.

Trump's legal team downplays Tuesday's arraignment as simply "procedural" According to sources familiar with the planning, Trump is expected to be joined by lawyers Todd Blanche and Chris Kise. Meetings with local attorneys are continuing. But for now, he's leaning on Blanche, who he sees as a "killer," and Kise, who knows Florida, to help him navigate this terrain. https://www.cbsnews.com/live-updates/live-coverage-trump-arraignment-miami-court-federal-indictment/

No, Texas can’t legally secede from the U.S., despite popular myth The theme of independence has recurred throughout the history of Texas, which was a republic from 1836–45. But the Civil War established that a state cannot secede. If there were any doubt remaining after this matter, the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia set it to rest when he asked by a screenwriter in 2006 whether there was a legal basis for secession. In his response, he wrote: “The answer is clear,” Scalia wrote. “If there was any constitutional issue resolved by the Civil War, it is that there is no right to secede. https://www.texastribune.org/2021/01/29/texas-secession/

How a Trump-Appointed Judge Could Influence His Documents Case Judge Aileen M. Cannon will wield sweeping power over the case’s tempo and what evidence to allow in or exclude. During the investigation, Judge Beryl A. Howell of the Federal District Court for the District of Columbia ruled that the exception applied, forcing Mr. Trump’s lawyers to provide information to the grand jury. But Judge Cannon is not bound by Judge Howell’s decisions when it comes to what information should be presented to a jury. During pretrial motions, if Mr. Trump’s lawyers ask Judge Cannon to suppress the evidence to protect attorney-client privilege and she does so, prosecutors could appeal — but that would further delay the case. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/12/us/judge-aileen-cannon-trump-trial.html https://archive.is/sm8Jm

What Is the Disqualification Clause? Fourteenth Amendment, Section 3: "No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof."

I don't know if the verb "jail" in the topic heading is to be taken literally or just another word for "hobbled". If literally, there is little or no chance that, even if convicted in federal or state criminal cases, Trump could physically be put under a corrections order before the Republican nominating Convention in July 2024 or even before the November 2024 election.

Yes. A lot of Sikhs. Thai citizens. Born in Thailand.

Ms. Habba is not now nor has she been the attorney of record in the Miami documents case. Donald Trump changes lawyers, names Todd Blanche in federal classified documents case WASHINGTON – Donald Trump announced Friday a new lawyer will defend him against federal charges in Florida dealing with classified documents found at Mar-a-Lago. Trump said in a social media post Todd Blanche, who has participated in his New York state criminal case, and a firm to be named later will represent him. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2023/06/09/donald-trump-lawyer-todd-blanche-federal-documents-case/70306305007/

Sure she can: Attorneys for Trump informed the Justice Department that they've not been able to locate a classified document related to Iran sought by investigators that was discussed during a recorded meeting, two people with knowledge of the case confirmed to CBS News. One person said it's not clear if the document with the "plan of attack" exists, or if Trump was misidentifying something to those assembled for the meeting, but said prosecutors have the tape. Sometimes aides and visitors weren't even sure if what Trump was talking about on national security or military matters was true or if documents Trump mentioned existed, sources recalled. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/donald-trump-indictment-documents-mark-milley-mar-a-lago/

I think maybe you have the Trump female lawyers mixed up. This is Alina Habba. The lawyer you refer to above is Christina Bobb. Trump lawyer Christina Bobb speaks to federal investigators in Mar-a-Lago case Bobb signed a letter in June certifying that “based upon the information that has been provided to me," Trump had returned all classified records sought by the government. The Aug. 8 search of Trump's home turned up additional records. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-lawyer-christina-bobb-speaks-federal-investigators-mar-lago-case-rcna51459

The Republican National Convention is in Milwaukee July 15 to 18, 2024 at the Fiserv Forum. In one sense, all DJT has to do is motion upon motion this thing to stall it out until then.

OK. I did not yet see that one. Loose Cannon on the case. (Haven't seen that obvious one yet) ... and Mar-A-Lago is in Palm Beach in the West Palm Beach Court district.

From the linked NY Times article: Published June 9, 2023Updated June 10, 2023, 12:02 p.m. ET This article was updated to reflect more detailed information about the usual procedure in the Southern District of Florida for assigning cases to judges. The chief clerk of court for the Southern District of Florida has said that new cases there are randomly delegated to its judges even if they are related to previous ones. It was not immediately clear whether Mr. Trump lucked out, or if an exception was made. Either way, legal specialists said Judge Cannon’s return was significant.

30+ years ago, when I first started visiting Pattaya, if you asked the girls where they are from they would say: Chiang Mai. Chiang Rai. When one girl said Udon Thani I said: Where is that? In those days there was a ThaiAir ticket office at the Royal Cliff so I would stay nearby to arrange my onward tickets and spend a few days indulging in the Pattaya fauna.
