Please refer to PolitiFact, who have the factiest political facts on the Internet, home of the "pants on fire" truth-o-meter. Their only agenda is to publish the truth, and you can be sure of this because their home page says so.
So there is no problem unless he goes all Ron Paul and questions the validity of the public debt of The United States, as Maxmars has noted.
By the way, at this point the public debt of The United States is an absurd legal fiction with no validity, as "debt" implies something that could eventually be paid back, which is now impossible with compound interest and inflationary fiat currency.
Oopsie.
ETA: Please note that I did not violate the 14th Amendment as I questioned the debt of "The United States", not the debt of "the United States", or even the united States. Checkmate, sovereign citizen globalists (I know there's at least one of you). Use all caps next time.
Quote:...Some social media users have claimed efforts by Trump, now the president-elect, to overturn the 2020 election results and remain in power disqualify him from holding office again under the U.S. Constitution’s 14th Amendment.
...Legal scholars who spoke with PolitiFact said the court’s ruling means that any enforcement of the 14th Amendment to keep Trump out of the White House would need to come through Congress. Because of Congress’ current political makeup (Republicans control the House) — that almost certainly won’t happen by Jan. 20, when Trump will be sworn in as the 47th president.
...Legal scholars said there’s no reason to suspect Congress will act to bar Trump from office because of his efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
"I think whatever the legal argument surrounding that, as a practical matter, it’s just not going to happen, because, obviously, the Republicans will be completely against it," Ilya Somin, a George Mason University law professor, said. "But I don’t see much in the way of a movement among Democrats to do it either."
The U.S. Supreme Court ruling left ambiguous whether enforcement requires specific legislation, or whether Congress could refuse to certify Trump’s election on Jan. 6, 2025, legal experts said.
