Everyone would like Trump to be disqualified from running based on the 14th Amendment. But realistically, it's going to be getting bounced around courts long past the next election. I'm counting on enough GOP voters who are concerned he could get a felony conviction that prevents him from running in enough states to make it mathematically impossible for them to win the general election.
Of course, then we get someone just as bad, but more competent at doing it, so we aren't coming out ahead.
Two things seem totally unclear: whether a Secretary of State can actually keep a person off the ballot based on what amounts to a matter of opinion, and who actually has the standing to bring a lawsuit to force him off the ballot.

Yeah, it seems obvious from our point of view, but Trump supporters don't see the attack on the Capitol as any more treasonous from riots after the cops shoot some unarmed person. They're watching Fox News and Newsmax tell them what happened instead of watching the hearings themselves. They also see the riot ending because Trump told them to go home, not because they were defeated, so he looks less like a ringleader.
It's okay, the prosecutors grasp it. That's their job.

The real treason was the fake electors, and too many people aren't grasping the seriousness of that.
