The ruling doesn't say that Congress would have to pass legislation on an individual basis. Congress can pass legislation to define a process, such as through the courts.
Problem is right now that SCOTUS used that for an off ramp as there is no legislation at all on the matter. They said, and I paraphrase "until Congress does something, the ball isn't in the states wheelhouse".
WW
Your reasoning is sound, even though I disagree with it. And yet the ruling was 9-0.The ruling seemed to have 2 parts:
That a State cannot determine the eligibility of a candidate for Federal Office,
And that it would take Congressional legislation to make someone ineligible for a Federal Office.
Both arguments are absolutely lame.
States routinely rule on eligibility for Federal office. Based on age and whether they are a naturalized citizen.
Congress having to pass legislation on an individual basis. to disqualify is nonsense because:
1. Congress could not pass legislation for each and every confederate that participated in the Civil War.
2. Congress barring someone by a simple majority, then having the option to reverse that by a 2/3 majority in both houses is obviously not the original intention of the Amendment.
3. Congress is a political body and should not be able to determine who can and cannot run for office on a case by case basis.
4. Congress already passed the only legislation needed - the 14th amendment Sec. 3
As of now, if a State cannot bar someone from office, then somebody should file a suit in Federal court to remove them.
There is something severely wrong with this SCOTUS!!!
MAGA thug tactics?
Kinda like a political body dominated by one party trying to remove a President of the other party from office?
Your reasoning is sound, even though I disagree with it. And yet the ruling was 9-0.
Why?
The same reason that so many election fraud cases were refused, even a court hearing. Most of those had sound reasoning, whether you agree with them or not.
The federal courts are the only non-elected branch of the federal government. As such, they are very very reluctant to make any ruling That takes away the vote to pick the legislative branch or the executive branch. Whatever the next major cases, the Supreme Court will in favor of letting the people vote and not going back and doing anything that might appear to be overriding their vote.
So the fraud festival will go on again in 2024. if Trump loses through cheating again, I think that will finally convince the Republicans that elections are now to see who cheats the best. Once they finally realize that, they will be unstoppable. Democrats are not Democrats because they are so smart. They are in office because it doesn’t take that much brains to cheat badly. Not when the courts won’t even hear the cases.
He knows that.The election fraud cases were refused because there was no credible evidence - just wild unfounded accusations.
While it's generally true that the courts should not mettle in elections, the entire purpose of the 14 amendment Sec. 3 is for the courts to intervene.
There would be no reason for the existence of 14 amendment Sec. 3 if the writers did not intend for the courts to intervene.
More crying.The ruling seemed to have 2 parts:
That a State cannot determine the eligibility of a candidate for Federal Office,
And that it would take Congressional legislation to make someone ineligible for a Federal Office.

MAGA thug tactics?
You are unhinged.Yes!
If the Dems take the House, they'll be instated on Jan. 3 - long before Trump is sworn in.
They can vote to impeach and remove him the second he finishes his oath.
They should also severely admonish SCOTUS for this BULLSHIT!
Section 5 gives sole power to enforce the 14th to Congress, Simp.Congress already passed very powerful legislation - the 14th amendment Sec. 3.
The Constitution is the Law of the Land, and it's up to the courts to enforce that law.
SCOTUS FAILED TO DO THEIR JOB.
I LAUGH at you wasting precious time trying to dig up some dirt.I stand corrected.
Trump removed from Colorado ballot
But you have stated on numerous times that Trump was an "insurrectionist" on January 6, even going so far as to predict him being charged with "criminal conspiracy."

How about this gem?
"Started and LED an Insurrection.......Trial coming

Just ^^^ 2 of many crimes."

Or this one...

Possible Hunter Indictment
Or this one...
"Does that ^^^^^ mean he inciting an insurrection and giving commands to the Kkkult? Curious."
Nord Stream 2 has appeared to have stopped leaking
Or this one...
"Inciting an Insurrection"
Here's why they cannot indict Trump, no matter how many classified documents that he failed to return they find
Or this one...
"3). Incited an insurrection."

Or this one...
"As opposed to a traitor lying con man that led an insurrection"
Once again, Biden shakes hands with the Invisible Man
Or this one...
"3). Inciting an insurrection and inciting a death wish for his own VP."
PROOF of Stolen Election
Now admit it, if you have the balls to: Trump really didn't try to carry out an "insurrection" on January 6. That's what this thread is about and the Supreme Court just knocked Colorado's dick in the dirt for trying to take him off the ballot.
No stupid, Dimtards tried it twice with Trump, and got their asses kicked at trial both times.Yes. Like the Republican house trying to impeach Biden for no valid reason.
Unfortunately for you MAGGOTS, Democrats have never tried removing anyone from office without valid reason.
Section 5 gives sole power to enforce the 14th to Congress, Simp.
Time for you to accept reality, and your ass kicking.
Trump has lost every single election since 2016. From the 2018 midterms to this years special elections. 7 straight years of losing.Trump is leading Biden by every measure that's tracked.
Uh-huh . . .The election fraud cases were refused because there was no credible evidence - just wild unfounded accusations.
I don’t see “courts” in section 3.While it's generally true that the courts should not mettle in elections, the entire purpose of the 14 amendment Sec. 3 is for the courts to intervene.
There would be no reason for the existence of 14 amendment Sec. 3 if the writers did not intend for the courts to intervene.
Uh-huh . . .
I don’t see “courts” in section 3.
But suppose you are correct. That is evidence that the Supreme Court did, indeed rule that Trump is no insurrectionist.
I LAUGH at you wasting precious time trying to dig up some dirt.
Just a reminder that YOU spend way to much time and energy on this message board.
LOLLOLLOLLL
In 2024 expect Congress to take some pretty severe action to change the status of SCOTUS. They've proven themselves to be incapable and unwilling to do the jobs that they were appointed.
This isn't the old days when the majority of the people had little idea of what SCOTUS did, and everyone thought that SCOTUS was above question. Not anymore!
