The amendment was instituted in the wake of the Civil War, and was used several times against members of the Confederacy who never had a trial or conviction.
This, however, is not a time of war. The legal standards, therefore, might be different. 
It wasn’t a time of war after the Civil War ended, either.
My point is that a lot has changed since then regarding legal precedences and procedure.
You meant that when you said ‘this is not a time of war’?
I never would have guessed.
What does you liking anal have anything to do with it 😜
Vote to keep him and Roger Stone off earth. Attach go pros to em and blast em into space.
Just curious - If Colorado bans him for running (due to this, or something else entirely), but other states do not.. is he still able to run, but with the Colorado electoral points already lost?
If he can’t run in a particular state, he is not eligible for that state's electoral votes, yes. 
Seems like it. And it only has to succeed in like one swing-ish state.
