How do you think Supreme Court Will Rule on Trump’s Presidential Run??

Will the Justices do the correct & right thing or will partisan politics further divide this country?

Voted 5-4 but 6-3 is my official prediction. Kagan, Sotomayor and Jackson will dissent. I don’t see Roberts voting with the liberals on this. So Trump will be allowed to run and be placed on the ballot in all 50 states.

True. Anything less that 9-0 will be bad for this country tho..

After all that has gone on let's just say nothing would shock me

The constitution of the United States to most these days is nothing but a old piece of paper that is ignored.

Personal opinion and bias supercedes little things like the constituon and justice .

We all should be praying that Trump wins. Even if you were /are not a Trump supporter everyone should be against what is happening

The entire reason this is happening is because of language in the constitution.

The POTUS is elected by the states, and I'm 100% for the states having leverage over the process. And if Colorado and Maine didn't adhere to the process now the SC may play their role and define the roadmap for exactly what the process is, which can only be a good thing gong forward.

Is it confirmed already that they'll take the case? I thought they stayed away from all 2020 election cases for example.

2 things:

1) The appeals process will likely delay any election-related case until after the election. Trump will remain on the ballot throughout the appeals process, effectively mooting any issue. The Court loves to say "issue is moot, we aren't taking the case" so this is a likely outcome.

2) Even if the SCOTUS gets and rules on the case before any relevant election, they will tailor their ruling to be as narrow as possible; i.e. in Colorado they will review if the applicable Colorado law is Constitutional and if Colorado followed the process laid out in the state law. If so, the ruling will stand, if not, overturned.

The SCOTUS won't be ruling on if Trump is eligible for the ballot, they'll be ruling on if the state laws and application of state laws that removed him from individual ballots are Constitutional.

In Maine, two of the five people who challenged Trump being on the ballot were Republican state senators.

In Colorado, at least one of the parties in the original lawsuit challenging Trump being on the ballot was a Republican.

I know people cope by claiming these aren't "real" Republicans, but there are plenty of conservatives who are disgusted by Trump's bullchit.

A real MAGA Republican wants to fix the border and stop anti-science gender ideology.. These conservatives you speak of are willing to put Trumps crude behavior in front of whats good for the country, that makes them a leftist.

If you have to make room for MAGA Republicans on the right by shifting the rest of the scale so far left that moderate Republicans could now be considered leftists I'd say it's time to reevaluate what's good for the country versus what's good for some extremists on the fringe right. That or maybe a good time for the pipe dream of abandoning the two party system that doesn't align with variance in people's values.

Holy crap, you think I'm calling them moderate Republicans? Re-read what I wrote, the part about putting their personal feelings above good policy... that doesnt make them moderate. Youre just calling them moderate to cope.

Can you even name any extreme positions that MAGA Republicans have?

I can name more than a few coming from the left.

I wasn't sure if you meant moderate or really meant leftist. WTF is the Republican party doing if it encompasses everything from leftists to MAGA?

I don't even know how you can discuss party politics when the title is so meaningless.

It's all virtue signaling theater. The states trying to block Trump form being on the ballot will get shot down by SCOTUS and the election will go on.

Do you not see a correlation between Dems and Repubs that oppose Trump regardless of policy? Theyre all leftists.

Of course. But what happens when half of the theater get up in arms at the decision?

Not agreeing with Donald Trump for whatever reason makes you a leftist? I don't see that correlation.

It reminds me a bit of not agreeing with Joe Biden makes you not black.

I think myself and many others see Trump's incessant, unsupported election denying rhetoric as unAmerican and not at all "conservative".

I dont know why youre not reading my posts. How is voting against border security because you dont like Trump = "Oh, just simply disagreeing" ?

They are voting against good policy to obstruct Trump.I dont know how many other ways I can be more clear about this lol

Let's just move on- I dont think youre going to understand what I'm saying. The (R) party is no longer a home to these "conservatives" you speak of.

It's the same argument, that voting against funding Trump's particular methods and policies means they were voting against "border security". That's simply not correct, it likely wasn't good policy.

I'll concede that out of 250 or however many Republican legislators and senators there had to be a few that were simply "orange man bad". The rest of it is Trump being a chitty CEO with shallow, one-liner ideas that couldn't garner enough support.

I get it. That second sentence was mainly my point to begin with. This isn't being driven by deranged Democrats, there are deranged Republicans leading this as well, enough that you can't really call them all deranged and/or it's not an R Vs. D thing anymore.

Hence I was calling them leftists.. full circle. They do not support the (R) party anymore and I see them losing their seats sooner than later.

I am, I live in a border state though not as close as San Diego.

My comments in this thread began under the context of thoughts on a stolen election, insurrection, and ballot removal. Including the border and all of Trump's policies would change my opinions a little.

I hope it happens. I'd honestly like to reset and pick the whole thing up and put it back down two or three steps back over to the right.

Too much focus on pronouns and diversity and victimhood instead of some of the basic stuff like securing the border.
