It seems to me that this is a dangerous game being played here. There is no ruling here that will lead to an overall positive outcome or be seen as legitimate by broad swaths of the country. I see any ruling creating more trouble than it solves.

To be clear, defeating Trump one last time in an election also isn't going to solve anything, given how far gone the GOP is at this point. But it'll be a damn sight better than the kind of political games that will start popping up if this works and better than giving Republicans a way to claim Trump was found not guilty of insurrection in court if it doesn't.

So the case is already lost then. Does anyone actually believe the Supreme Court isn’t politically motivated anymore?

I don't see any way they could, or more likely would, rule against him without one of the cases against him ending with a guilty verdict.

much as I'd love to see them kick him out, I'm pretty sure all of them are aware that their lives could quite literally be on the line here. they're gonna figure out ahead of time who's voting what way, so they can have may be a 6-3 split while still ensuring that they don't risk actually letting it pass.

Not that I really know anything about this but isn't this a state's rights issue? Don't states determine their own ballets? Anyway, this will be interesting to watch. I'd like to think we can't be sure of the results.

No matter how it goes, I think this will be damaging to the GOP which is fine by me. They married the criminal and I am sure there are those who wish to cut him loose and those who can't give him up.

Outcome: 5 to 4 max, they won't.

Hopefully they remove him from the ballot.
