I don't think states can legally do this. I mean, even if they can and do, people will just write Trump in, lol.

did they rewrite the 4th amendment ?

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

Only 2 constitutional requirements to be qualified to be President: 1) Age over 35 and 2) natural born U.S. citizen.

States cannot add qualifications without amending the Constitution.

Illinois bill would require President Trump release tax returns to gain 2020 ballot access

Republican state Sen. Dale Righter opposed the measure, Capitol News reported, citing two Supreme Court cases ruling that states cannot alter ballot qualifications described in the U.S. Constitution. The court, in 1983's Anderson v. Celebrezzedecision, said Ohio's early filing deadline for president was unconstitutional. In 1968, Ohio state presidential ballot laws also violated the Fourteenth Amendment, according to the Williams v. Rhodesdecision.

All the fodder, it's free press for Trump. The man is a genius. Not tactful but a genius.

 

[ProgSpear]

Illinois has needed to be bitch slapped by SCOTUS for years. Maybe this will trigger the process. (maybe NY will jump on board this stupidity also)

 

[byron]

Whats on tax returns mean nothing its what is not on them if someone is doing somthing illegal are the really going to report it.

 

[Camaro45th]

I still can’t believe these people are trying to get this shît to stick to the wall.

When Barry ponies up his birth cert, talk to trump about the tax returns.

 

[Carlos Hathcock]

Sounds like someone's looking for a shitload of "new citizens" to be delivered.

 

[Cooolone]
