MORE WINNING for Trump! Supreme Court indicates they will keep Trump on 2024 Ballot!

No, they did NOT DENY that the 45th president engaged in insurrection. Whether he did or didn't is not really part of the argument. One of the arguments is who gets to determine if he engaged or not, in an insurrection for disqualification, and the uniformity of the who and how, for all the states....was what I got out of it....
He hasn't been convicted of Insurrection

so I don't see how ANY of the scotus can go along with the liberal BS on this
 
More WINNING for Trump. Supreme court justices indicate they will keep Trump on the 2024 Ballot!

Supreme Court justices indicate they’ll keep Trump on 2024 ballot in landmark case.​


WASHINGTON — A clear majority of the Supreme Court’s nine justices signaled Thursday that they would overturn a Colorado ruling barring former President Donald Trump from the state’s Republican presidential primary ballot.

The former president, 77, and his lawyers were appealing the Dec. 19 decision by Colorado’s Supreme Court that found Trump ineligible for the March 5 Republican contest by virtue of violating the Constitution’s so-called “Insurrection Clause” during the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.

Trump’s team argued separately that Congress — not the states — was tasked with enforcing the clause, that the provision did not apply to the office of president, and denied that the 45th president engaged in an insurrection by seeking to remain in office after his 2020 election defeat by Joe Biden.



what an ass slaughtering....even the newest box checker told em to fug off....lolol
 
The funny thing is how MAGA only looks at “winning”, even when it isn’t, instead of what is good for the country....
Woah! I stopped right there to laugh, then vigorously shake my head at this right here....To say GTFOH!

The failures that have occurred the past 3 years, thru today, perpetuated by democrats upon the citizenry of this nation is criminal...You back a traitor, and expect ANYONE to read the drivel you have to type, and say "yeah, that makes sense", you are weapons grade stupid....

What a fucking joke.
 
The funny thing is how MAGA only looks at “winning”, even when it isn’t, instead of what is good for the country. They are perfectly happy to support an insurrection but unwilling to accept the consequences of their behavior.

There is no question in my mind that Trump was involved in an insurrection, but what they are basing this on was a civil war era law that clearly applied to the Confederate leadership. To use it now would risk creating a broad and vague definition of “insurrection” and setting a very dangerous precedent where partisan legislatures, election officials or elected officers could use it to strike anyone off the ballot for flimsy reasons.

I think in this case…removing someone from the ballot for this reason sets a dangerous precedent - the cure is worse than the illness.
This makes me kinda sad, you and Nancy Pelosi having so much in common.. 😧

I listened to most of the arguments this morning and I concur that the justices, even the most liberal ones, were not fond of the idea of a state dictating who could and could not be on a federal ballot. It is a no brainer that if they rule for Colorado, the weaponization of government will extend more deeply into the states and every viable candidate will be subject to that kind of persecution.

Just as if the government is successful in taking Trump out with these insane investigations/prosecutions, no opponent of the sitting government can expect to not be similarly investigated/prosecuted and eventually the whole system could collapse.
 
If they overturn it, and they likely will, it will not be because he wasn't convicted of insurrection.
I don't know the Colorado story, and I sure do get the principle at work, but this was never a good idea. This isn't a great time to be pouring fuel on the fire, and they just ran too far with this. Sounded like the liberal judges weren't having it.
 
Should those States that want to remove P01135809 from running in their State tell the SCOTUS they will do what they want, just as texASS did?

There was no insurrection led by Trump, hence no charges against Trump for insurrection.

Your logic and your intellect are both severely crippled.

What insurrection? Trump got the proper permits for the rally and the intention was NEVER to overthrow or interrupt any process of government but to let the people's desire be known to delay certification of the election until the preliminary investigations could be complete. Tens of thousands of people there believed with all their hearts--most still do--that the election was corrupt and that Trump won. So did many millions of others who were not in DC that day.

Trump did not ask for, have in part in, or encourage a violent riot, breaking or entering. The verdict is still out on who did instigate that and more than a few believe Pelosi, the FBI et al were complicit. I won't say that myself without hard evidence, but I sure won't rule it out either given her taking the opportunity to use the occasion for a photo op for herself and her daughter with a video camera there to oblige her.

And it is 100% obvious that overthrow of the government was not the intent of the relative few who participated in the riot. Once inside they became calm and the Capitol Police were not at all alarmed at their presence and even accompanied/escorted them on a tour of the building. And all left the premises without further incident.

There was no insurrection. And I have to believe that only the most clueless and/or politically motivated continue to call it that. So far not a single person arrested and/or sentenced due to the events of Jan 6 has been charged with or convicted for participating in an insurrection.
