congress were working with the insurrectionists to try to stop the certification of the election, that could apply directly to them. who else could it apply to? potentially donald trump. this is the lesson of the civil war generation to stop. if he had been impeached, this would all be a moot point. he obviously was not convicted in the senate. what some members of congress will tell you is because the articles of impeachment specifically mention insurrection for donald trump, and because a majority of both houses voted for it, despite the fact they didn't convict, it could apply. because that's the threshold for imposing the fourteenth amendment, section 3. boom! >> you react to that, and then i have a question. >> okay. here's the problem. the constitution is a brilliant, wonderful document. but it has this annoying habit sometimes of telling us something really important but telling us nothing but how it's
