George Conway Gets Into Heated Dispute With CNN Legal Analyst Over Trump Colorado Ruling
HuffPost
The conservative attorney butted heads with Elie Honig over the Colorado Supreme Court's decision to bar Trump from the ballot.
George Conway, a conservative attorney, and CNN senior legal analyst Elie Honig got into a lively debate Wednesday about the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision to bar Donald Trump from the state’s presidential primary ballots.
After the news broke last week, Conway wrote in an article for The Atlantic that he had been unconvinced about the strength of the argument to disqualify Trump under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, but changed his mind after reading the three dissenting opinions, which he said “were gobsmacking—for their weakness.”
Honig, on the other hand, has disagreed with elements of the 4-3 ruling. He argued that it violates the former president’s due process rights and said he believes it will be overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Section 3 of the 14th Amendment says that nobody can “hold any office” in the U.S. if they had previously taken an oath to support the Constitution and then “engaged in insurrection or rebellion.”
On Wednesday, however, Honig argued that another section of the 14th Amendment muddies the waters.
