If they’re successful, Vice President Kamala Harris (D) would become president.
The first woman to successfully sue Trump during his first presidency, his former 2016 staffer Jessica Denson, has spent the last two months advocating for him to be disqualified from the presidency. Denson accused his campaign of harassment and sued to overturn her non-disclosure agreement (NDA).
Recently, she’s been joined in the effort to keep him out of office by high-profile legal experts.
They are among those who argue that the 14th Amendment bars Trump from becoming president. That amendment prohibits current and former officials who have “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” from holding office. They claim that Trump’s involvement in the Capitol riot means just that.
The protest, which began today in Washington, D.C. and continues through the weekend, is called 14th Now. They’re using the hashtag #14thNow to promote it online.
On the demonstration’s permit application, which the Daily Dot obtained, an event organizer wrote that estimated participation would include “upwards of 10,000 to potentially 50,000” people. Mike Litterst, chief of communications for the National Mall and Memorial Parks, told me the issued yet still-pending permit would ultimately contain a final estimate of crowd size.
The application also states that there is reason to believe “MAGA organizations” might try to disrupt the event. So far, that has not occurred.
