'BradCast' 9/11/2023 (U.S. Constitution Says Trump Should be Barred in 2024, But Is That a Good Idea?)
On today's 'BradCast':\xa0 New disasters unfolded over the weekend in North Africa. In Morocco, a powerful 6.8 earthquake killed at least 2,700. In Libya, more than 2,000 people are feared dead amid climate-intensified extreme rains and floods. The toll of the missing in the catastrophic Maui Fires has dropped to 66. Powerful Hurricane Lee in the record hot Atlantic Ocean threatens Bermuda, the Northeastern US, and Canada.\xa0 The corporate media has finally taken notice of the U.S. Constitution's 'Insurrection Disqualification Clause,' after two prominent conservative legal scholars concluded that disgraced former President Donald Trump should be disqualified from running in the 2024 election due to his having 'engaged in insurrection' on January 6, 2021, under an originalist, textualist reading of the 14th Amendment. Courts will ultimately decide if Trump should be barred from running for office. But is it a good idea politically? And should that matter? Callers weigh in.
