Can the 14th Amendment Save Democracy?

The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution was written in the aftermath of the Civil War. This landmark addition defined what made a person a citizen, equal protection under the law and even addressed Civil War debt.But, it is section three of this amendment that could be used as a tool to punish those who took part in the January 6th insurrection by having them removed from office and preventing them from ever holding public office in the future.The Fourteenth Amendment allows for anyone who takes part in an attempt to overthrow the government to be removed from office and to be barred from ever holding office again.This could certainly explain why so many Republicans are refusing to provide testimony to the January 6th committee. To do so might result in their removal and possibly even criminal action being brought against them. So, who exactly would be at risk if the provisions of the Fourteenth Amendment were enforced?
