I don't need to. You stupid punk. No criminal conviction is needed to disqualify someone from running for office after having engaged in an insurrection. Not one of the 7 or 8 citizens that have been barred from running for office or were thrown out of office were criminally convicted. Regardless of how the Supreme Court rules on the matter, precedent has it that no conviction has been necessary. Not my fault you're too stupid to recognize that. Ask your orange jesus if the $5 million he has to pay E. Jean Carroll is the result of a conviction.
A spotless criminal record is not a constitutional prerequisite for presidential candidates in the United States. The eligibility requirements are outlined in the Constitution and include being a citizen by birth, being at least 35 years old, and having lived in the nation for 14 years.
The Constitution of the United States outlines the eligibility requirements for the presidency in Article II, Section 1, Clause 5. It states:
"No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States."
This clause specifies the citizenship, age, and residency requirements for presidential eligibility but does not explicitly mention a requirement regarding a clean criminal record. The absence of such a requirement has led to varying state laws and legal interpretations on this matter.
This is not a state matter, regardless of how much you want it to be. The SCOTUS will rule as such.
Your entire stance is a bunch of whogivesashit from an emotionally and mentally crippled feelings-based society leech.
Want proof? You're here.
