The Supreme Court better do their job, Trump is guilty of an insurrection, quit looking for a way out
They won't. They will let him be on the ballot.
Federal Judge J. Michael Luttig is a leftwing quack. Him saying the Supreme Court should disqualify Trump from running for office based upon political rhetoric from a very biased
left wing media and democrat party, with an agenda to keep Trump from running, not due to facts or Trump ever being convicted of the crime he is alleged to have taken part in,
which he wasn't, is proof he is a quack and deserves to be admonished for making such an unprofessional, unethical and unlawful assessment. It's unlawful because of him abusing his
station to accuse Trump of being guilty without due process ever taking place to warrant it.
It’s starting to sound like even Hitler could run for President.
He did. His name was OBAMA!

What I find interesting is the SC is concerned about one state impacting the election, but don’t they all already do that by passing voter restriction laws??
The Supreme Court definitely didn't care about everyone arguing over Roe vs Wade and allowing other states to make up insane abortion laws that actually make women and young girls die. So what's stopping them from upholding the 14th amendment section 3, which states anyone involved with an insurrection or rebellion is disqualified to run for president it's as clear as day Trump should be disqualified Disqualified,we all watched it on live TV,he sent no national guards because he didn't want it stopped, complete deriliction of duty. He was home watching it gleefully on TV with everyone begging him to stop it. He's still aiding and abetting him , saying "we love you your special" and calling them hostages. He will be convicted in Jack Smith's case in DC court and the supreme Court will look totally incompetent and disgraceful
Apples and oranges, Not even close.
He is not a president now
Yes, he is. Biden stole 2020 from him.
We will be in November.

Perhaps it's time to update and better define the Constitution. It's infuriating to have the SCOTUS try to interpret what the document intends.
awwww
You must be one of the uneducated Trump loves. Have you EVER read the Constitution???
I fully agree with you. The 14th amendment clause is written in layman's language. There is no interpretation to be made here. It's plain simple.the ruling should be based on whether or not Trump is an insurectionist

Good Lord, I saw the thumbnail and thought it was an SNL clip..😂
I thought so too!
Why it's complicated while the law is clear.
your right the law is clear - TRUMP IS NOT GUILTY !!AND HE STAYS ON THE BALLOT BRO
Because he commited no crime. Get a clue maybe.
@@wesleywarsmith1113 ok, so Biden can do the same if he loses in November. Fair enough! Right
@@wesleywarsmith1113 colorado and maine totally got destroyed
@@user-ut8ls7qp1j Did the decision come?
Thank you for confirming what every intelligent non maga American expects from the supreme court.
That’s was some BS
Why?
Because they are sad, doing everything possible to block a presidential candidate. We are a banana republic. @@middle_of_the_road
With New York Kangaroo courts
@@middle_of_the_road really……get outta here
The president is the highest officer in the land.
Who is described in the phrase “elector of President or Vice-President“?
"Elector"...it is pretty clear
Member of the electoral college?
Every person voting is an elector. Even Trump running to be president is an elector.
The Supreme Court was there to block Colorado not assist it or even consider it. Simply Chief Justice Roberts and his followers on the court had already gamed out a strategy for this oral argument. Also I am not sure the petitioner a 1st timer who is bright was the best choice for this presentation to the court. He did ok but why not ask Federal Judge Michael Ludwig to present the case. Which is unequivocal on its face. The states rights issue was never even argued instead the Justices side tracked the 1st timer by their leading questions which were weighted to serve the Supremes court's agenda which was to dismiss this case from the start. I have no doubts the court met for weeks on end at least 7 of the justices and games out their questions instead of doing their duty.
Somehow the Supreme court has been neutered by the fear of Trump, And this court disguised this fear in a manner in which they teamed up and cast this valid case to the side. Or worse is supportive of this emperor without clothes and in my humble opinion only served themselves and not our country or Republic.
States have the right to reject anyone who is an insurrectionist and there is good reason for this right. To save the Republic from within. As the founders warned us all about by the written words of the the 14th amendment section 3.

they sounded almost unanimous to me. totally sickening to listen to
I think we are all going to be shocked by their decision. 8-1 or 9-0 affirming Colorado.
They are only going to decide if he can go on the ballot
I would like someone to do a talk on the Griffin Case used in the hearing. I find it interesting an active federal judge was being put on equal consequential footing as an average citizen.
The Colorado Supreme Court analyzed the Griffin case at length. Justice CHase's opinion has been widely criticized as being politically influenced. Also know that at the very end of Chase's opinion he opines that he could easily support the opposite conclusion!
Reclassifying the insurrection and events of Jan 6th as a 'riot' is an insult to common sense. Definition of insurrection: 'Violent uprising against an authority or government.'
their was no insurrection!! period
Tresspasing. We already know the FEDOPHILES did it.
dont worry...you can still vote for slow joe. lol
Yea they were going to overthrow the government with flags and signs 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@gilacosta3196 liberal appointed justice jackson destroyed that colorado attorney
FJB
Why didn’t these to gentlemen go to represent Colorado
Jamie Raskin would have been terrific. He can really think on his feet.
What does it say about Jeffrey Rosen when he only makes appearances on left-wing networks.
demlibleft WRONG AGAIN, LAUGHABLE !!!!,,, still laughing !!!
They could also say he has not been convicted
The country is in chambres since January 6, so please don’t tell me it was not an insurrection
I felt the Supreme Court was looking for a excuse to not take responsibility for this dision and hand it to congress
you cannot spell!!! trump won again
It’s not an excuse. The 14th Amendment (the amendment Colorado is invoking) clearly states in section 5: “Congress shall have the power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.”
@@dadbodusa7352 the supreme court destroyed colorado and maine today
up hold the law kick trump off everything
If not the States or Congress then who makes that decision? Its obvious the Supreme Court doesn't want to make that decision either.
Simple! The VOTERS!
You must of not listened or heard the arguments. Enforcement would need to be federal meaning you would need to charge and find Trump guilty of insurrection to disqualify him.
If the States can decide voter rights and procedures and abortion etc. then why not who is qualified to be on the ballot?
@@richardhoner7842 No state can decide who is qualified. The constitution outlines who is and is not qualified. A state never had the power to determine who is qualified.
@@middle_of_the_road You should read the Colorado Supreme Court ruling. Highly educational.
all of them are afraid of trump lol
Lol... More news twist😂
The "off ramps" were all that interested them. One could easily see them responding to genoicde in their abject banality and lack of interest or concern. It was chilling to see the court refuse to take of the actual matter, and to listen to their intellectual dishonesty, having widely touted their "textualist" perspective which seems a fig leaf for destroying the meaning and intention of the law.
You all better start brushing up on what the French would do.
I'm in France... 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷✨🦩
There were additional 'off ramps' other than those mentioned.
1. That the phrase "shall ..... not hold any office ..." did not preclude "running for office", and,
2. That the removal of such disqualification by 2/3rds of the vote of Congress after the vote but before actual election implied that even a self-avowed insurrectionist could still run for office.
You can’t run for an office you can’t hold or he’s just giving president Biden the election
And clearly, his congress would vote with him, like the impeachment sham, rather than upholding the law
Judge luttig should be on the supreme Court bench .. it seems he is the only judge who has any sense
He couldn't be a judge at a dog catchers convention
@@billypardew2337 sounds like neither can you
Ironically, Jonathan Mitchell, Trump's attorney who argued for the defense, clerked for Judge Luttig after his graduation from law school.
what a great day for donald trump and even the democrat justices destroyed this colorado attorney
They court going to say lets the voters decide who s going to be the next president they going to ingnore the constetutions amendment 14. Because they are afraid to say no ones is above the law and he s not elegible to a president again they supost to say no because this a series matters no matter how hard is. They have to say no mister trump no more politics for you. Very simple. But they think he s stil a presiedent but he got no power to do anything
I understand now, why Yah God didn't build buildings. He knew most ones would follow man instead of him.
Constitutional expert🤔👎
Section 5 states that Congress has the power to enfore All articles of the 14th amendment through legislation.
For Trump to be ineligible to be removed by states, Congress would have to firstly agree and charge Trump with insurrection then enact legislation stating that states have the ability to then remove him from office. Which he was acquitted for in 2021, so is not an insurrectionist by their rules no matter anyones personal opinions.
Section 3 is therefore not self-evident as it has to be decided by congress. States unless instructed by congress have no authority to remove any candidate from any ballot.
It is clear, there is no other interpretation. If the founding fathers wanted states to have that ability it would specified in the 14th amendment articles.
Yes that is one way but congress has already created a federal process to enforce it through the federal criminal statue meaning the DOJ could charge Trump with insurrection and if found guilty would be disqualified.
They would not only have to charge POTUS Trump with insurrection but they would have to prove it. Simply labeling someone is not enough to convict them. J^ we now know was a scam a setup a ploy. idiot demlibleft has absolutely lost at everything they have attempted to do with respect to silencing our great POTUS Trump. #2024THERECKONING
Thank you for your input. 🇺🇸🇺🇸TRUMP 2024🇺🇸🇺🇸
lol, the same congress that refused to even allow their members to give evidence in the sham impeachment for insurrection you mean? Obviously, any insurrectionist would have the backing of his congress, and they wouldn’t be prosecuting him, they would be aiding him to overthrow the govt. Can you imagine mtg convicting trump?
@@user-jc8ud6xe9rwith any luck, that is an expiry date for maga
Fake news still
Never changed. Never convicted.
That isn't necessary.
In the Constitution says the Congress has to enforce his/her removal. The constitution said the congress, not the states, period.
So maybe the congress could get involved then?
But at the impeach hearings trump lawyers argued that the matter should be decided by the court.
@@catdog605 right, its the lunatic Colorado Miss Secretary and some proxy republican voters and democrat colorado supreme court judges try their luck even knowing there was no due process. Trumps lawyer had no other option but to end it with the High Court of the land....US Supreme Court.
Colorado, much respect! You made the right decision. We all know the court will favor loser trump, but you made your point and come election time you have an important role to play which is to make sure that loser trump stays a loser forever more. Thank you.
Thanks Colorado…now the GOP can remove any future democrats! 😂😂
@@peppywood01the cult of hatred is strong in you guys today

Trumpin Time 🎉😊
He was president at the time and he was defending the Constitution that's what a president's job is read the oath of the presidency if you want to understand more it's also in the constitution❤🎉
That’s some reaching for sure…
The people will answer this issue. The Trump haters will never win.
Do you mean when he lost the 2016 popular vote by 3 million but got electoral vote or 2020 when he lost the popular vote by 7 or 8 million votes and the electoral also.
2020 we did OK. 2022 every Trump backed candidate lost.
NOBODY WAS CHARGE WITH INSURRECTION!!!!! NOBODY
It's even worse! Trump was charged with having committed ‘Incitement to insurrection’ in his second impeachment ( H. RES. 24) but was acquitted which de facto means he was NOT GUILTY of "insurrection or rebellion". So Colorado gets a 'jury nullification' by simply saying we don't care if he was acquitted, we think he did. And when asked 'WHY'?, they respond, "Because we said so!"
Look at them yall are done arriva el presidente de la jente trump los latinos estamos contigo
First of all he wasn't there he did not tell the people to go raid anything he said be peaceful and then third he has never been convicted
You are a sucker if you believe Trump is innocent.
Democrats could have packed the Supreme Court in 2020 but didn't... enough said.🤪
That is what Republicans do.
Umm…the liberal justices appear to also be siding with Trump in this case. It was a weak case and Colorado bypassed the power of Congress- and is now getting called on it. It very well could be a 9-0 ruling.
Luttig is a clown 🤡
lib tears
He was never charged with his structure
