The Sunshine State governor made a similar comment recently when he warned that Maine’s ruling disqualifying Trump ‘opens up Pandora’s box’
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has revealed that he’s “looking” into ways to block President Joe Biden from the 2024 primary ballot in Florida.
“This is just going to be a tit for tat and it’s just not gonna end well,” the GOP presidential candidate warned Friday alongside Rep. Chip Roy, R-TX, according to a video posted by CNN. “You could make a case — I’m actually looking at this in Florida now [if we] could we make a credible case” to block Biden from the ballot “because of the invasion of 8 million.”
Many laws are self-executing without the need for a conviction.
If you get drunk, you’re not allowed to drive just because you haven’t been convicted of having consumed alcohol. By being drunk you’re automatically barred from driving, and it’s 100% legal and proper for the state to prevent you from driving before you get behind the wheel.
A firearm salesman can’t sell a weapon to someone if they know they smoke weed, even if there’s never been a drug conviction. In fact, the salesman can be arrested for knowingly selling to a drug user even if there’s no proof of drug use.
A tradesman can lose their state license for without ever having the police or the courts involved if they perform dangerous work or work knowingly without permits.
An attorney can be prohibited from practicing law without having been convicted or even being charged with any crimes.
And an act of insurrection automatically disqualifies someone from being an officer of the United States. It’s self-executing and always has been in both the language of the law and in actual use.
Yes, but if you get pulled over for drunk driving, you don’t get to continue driving home while awaiting the conviction. They can stop you from driving because the prohibition on driving while intoxicated is self-executing.
What requires a court process is the punishment for refusing to obey that restriction.
Donald Trump is drunk and Colorado and Maine are saying he’s not allowed to drive.
