Popular Post Social Media Posted March 4 Popular Post Share Posted March 4 US Supreme Court Upholds Trump's Eligibility for Presidential Ballot in Colorado In a landmark decision, the US Supreme Court has unanimously ruled against Colorado's attempt to bar former President Donald Trump from running for president in the state's Republican primary. The ruling, while specific to Colorado, sets a precedent that overrides similar challenges brought forth in other states, affirming Trump's eligibility to compete in the upcoming primary scheduled for Tuesday. Colorado's move to disqualify Trump stemmed from his alleged role in inciting the Capitol riot of 2021. However, the Supreme Court asserted that the power to disqualify candidates from federal offices, including the presidency, lies solely with Congress, not individual states. This decision clears the path for Trump to participate in the primary and solidifies his position as the front-runner for the Republican nomination. Trump hailed the ruling as a victory for America, emphasizing that candidates should not be removed from races based on the desires of their opponents. He viewed the decision as a step towards national unity, highlighting the need to respect democratic principles. However, Colorado's Secretary of State, Jena Griswold, expressed disappointment with the ruling, arguing that the state should have the authority to prevent individuals involved in insurrection from appearing on the ballot. Advocacy groups such as Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) also voiced discontent, characterizing Trump as an insurrectionist despite the court's decision. The Supreme Court's ruling centered on the interpretation of the 14th Amendment's Section 3, which prohibits individuals who have engaged in insurrection against the US from holding office. While acknowledging concerns about Trump's actions, the court concluded that only Congress possesses the authority to enforce this provision against federal officials and candidates. Notably, the decision received unanimous support from all nine justices, with Justice Amy Coney Barrett emphasizing the importance of settling politically charged issues during presidential election seasons. However, the court's liberal justices raised concerns about limiting alternative means of enforcement and urged broader considerations. Legal experts suggest that the ruling may have significant implications beyond Trump's candidacy, potentially affecting future electoral processes and constitutional interpretations. While addressing immediate concerns about Trump's eligibility, the decision also raises questions about the balance of power between states and the federal government. As Republican voters in Colorado and other states prepare to cast their ballots on Super Tuesday, Trump remains poised to secure victory and consolidate his position as the party's nominee. Despite the legal challenges and controversies surrounding his candidacy, Trump's return to the political arena appears imminent, setting the stage for a contentious election season. 05.03.24 Source 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jingthing Posted March 4 Popular Post Share Posted March 4 What SCOTUS didn't address was the Colorado ruling that Citizen (not president) Trump is an insurrectionist. So as it stands now, Trump on top of being an adjudicated rapist is also an adjudicated insurrectionist. Of course his maga cult fans won't budge, even as it becomes clearer and clearer that Trump suffers from advanced dementia. 2 3 4 3 3 12 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JonnyF Posted March 5 Popular Post Share Posted March 5 Obviously the correct decision. The voters of America need to decide whether they want Trump or not, nobody else. Just like Brexit, attempts to overturn the Democratic will of the people should be shut down immediately. 5 2 2 3 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt they even wasted time discussing it. Had the SCOTUS let it stand, Biden would probably be banned from every GOP run state. It was always a stupid decision and shame on those involved that sought to void democracy to prevent a man that has not been convicted of the charges laid from running for POTUS.

By curiosity: in your country, what would have happened to a PM whonwould not have accepted the results of elections and claimed he had won (despite officially losing), organise a protest and send a mob to assault the parliament, ask someone in charge of elections to find him 11,800 votes, plot to get alternative election results, etc....? 2 1 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given Trump's advanced dementia, I think the left should be demanding Biden debate him weekly. This will show how sharp Biden is and how far-gone Trump is. What do you think?

As far as presidential.debates let's see who the final nominees of both parties are first before blowing a lot of silly noise. If it's Trump v Biden I predict Trump will refuse to debate even once.

Judge can say whay he wants about his "interpretation" of the rape term and standard in NY law but it does not make it so, the Jury decides and it decided there was no evidence to prove rape, by a "preponderance of the evidence", a low standard compared to common criminal law requirement of "beyond a reasonable doubt". Do you understand the difference between civil and criminal evidentiary requirements? https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000188-027d-deac-a39a-4f7d06460000 Edited March 5 by stats flame comments removed 2 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are really angry at the 3 lib judges for refusing to debase themselves. Because these operatives’ legal arguments were so bad.

Today the progressives want to ban the conservative candidate that they viscerally hate. Tomorrow the useful idiots will become the target of their own derision, enmity, and lawfare. Lawfare is the end of actual democracy. But then again, the western concept of democracy is looking more and more like other -ism and -cracies such as kakistocracies and plutocracies with a bent toward totalitarianism, all framed as "democracies." When the SCOTUS affirmed for Big Money and Big Corporations via Citizens United vs FEC followed by Congress voting to allow the government to shower the American public with state propaganda on July 2nd 2013, democracy died. Now they are just filleting the carcass and hanging the commoners meat out to dry. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
