Supreme Court reverses CO
- Thread starter St. Louis Hawk
- Start date
If Trump was convicted of any or all of those charges, he’d be ineligible for the presidency. if he wins those trials will get squashed when he takes office. You dont think that’s something that should be resolved if at all possible?
unless of course you actually think there’s something to his absolute immunity claim.
When was trump charged with insurrection even? Did I miss that? Your premise seems to be based on events that have never happened.
Judicial appointments by Democrats in the lower courts 11 out of the last 15 years is taking its toll.
Dare I say this decision was a win for, wait for it, DEMOCRACY.
It was a win for all of us. Some of us don’t realize it but they will.
Shoes go on both feet.
I understand facts frighten your world view but the questions have nothing to do with the Court’s opinion.
Weak on your part but totally predictable.
It is scary that several judges across the land were able to start this process only to get smacked 9-0.
That should be an eye opener
That should be an eye opener
Trump has been charged with 91 criminal counts. This move by the SC virtually assures we won’t see trials on any before the election.
do you think voters deserve to know the outcome of those trials before voting?
We're at the point in this experiment where the wife of a scotus speaks for the entire court???
Jesus Christ, man.
See how stupid that sounds?
The courts KNOW exactly what Trump wants to do and they are allowing him to get away with delay delay delay. 91 counts and somehow he's going to get a manufactured win in November and this crap all goes away for him. Puke-worthy.
Seems like the right choice to me and a dangerous precedent to start in getting States to begin to opine on who is not eligible to be on a ballot for a federal office when it involves nothing black and white in their state laws as to why candidate is ineligible. Massive can of worms there.
Compared to the normal Supreme Court scheduling both cases have been expedited, and are on similar time lines,... Dems want faster decisions they shouldn't try to schedule all these cases to play out as election year hammers.
So you were against the push to have Pence reject electoral votes from certain states?
I will be curious what you will have to say should Trump lose in November, and certain state legislatures try to overturn their results and appoint electors on their own.
She should have.
But the fact that she was not doesn't mean she didn't do what she did. And just because Trump was not charged doesn't mean he didn't do what he did.
I agree that Garland dropped the ball here. Trump should have been charged with an attempted insurrection before the end of 2021. He should have already been tried by now.
If you want to see real TDS, go to a Trump rally.
in some ways, i think the subtext of barrett's brief concurrence may be the most important part of the whole thing. perhaps it's probably an overstatement, but I think she's sending a signal that the political groups on both sides should stop trying to weaponize the judicial process in the service of electoral politics.
The use of the term was a bit of a joke... Nevertheless, Colorado didn't make a good argument. Trumps a disaster, but you have to do things the right way
"Manufactured"? You're getting awfully close to insurrectionist language there, comrade.
From you that's a compliment. I look forward to your DEMOCRACY posts when it's obviously under attack by the other party, instead of just trying to point out Democrat "flaws".
I feel even better now that Scruddy liked your post. I know I'm good now.
I think the signal is that its ok to ransack the Capitol.
Why were the charges against Trump delayed? If you want to talk about delays, blame the DoJ for the January 6 charges being delayed.
Less stupid than cheerleading that 8 out of 9 SCOTUS justices don’t have a spouse who actively worked to subvert an election
I would think the goal would be 0% of SCOTUS justices falling into that category.
But you do you.
No stupider than thinking that said justice isnt owned lock stock and barrel.
Apparently, in the opinion it essentially states that Congress needs to pass legislation to enforce the 14th amendment. Ok, but you know what else never had legislation passed? The 22nd Amendment. So, this means that if Congress doesn't pass legislation Obama could run for office again. Or Bush Jr. Or any two-term President.
No one said that. If Thomas had an ounce of integrity he’d recuse himself from this case tho.
More from the fascist left ... Keith Olbermann calling for SCOTUS to be "dissolved".
I more have an issue with the timeline involved. Smith asked them to look at this 3 months ago; and even an idiot knew it would eventually get appealed to them in the end.
All they accomplished was to aid Trumps strategy of delay delay delay.
And yes, calling for the SC to be dissolved is stupid.
