Trump had a trial (incitement of insurrection) which commenced on February 9, 2021, and concluded on February 13, 2021, with his acquittal. It aired on C-SPAN.
So a lower court is able to ignore the acquittal?
Bolton is still correct on many foreign policy issues. Wrong headed on many also but is tough and has convictions, though we may not agree. I’m sorry he and Presudent Trump didn’t better see eye to eye on many things. The bad blood after was just silly and over the top. Bolton is also a peace through strength guy, sorely lacking with Obama 3 (Biden) today.
Stopped (digital) clock. Only right once a day. This one was it…
War pig gets one right for once.
Yes, I hope old War Hawk Bolton is over the target on this analysis.
You now see what the DNC’s version of Democracy looks like.
And when SCOTUS reverses the lower court ruling I’m sure the libs in CO will go out of their way to undermine the reversal in any way they can.
Roberts will send it back and tell them to fix it, just like with Obamacare.
Bolton:
<>Number one, the 14th Amendment provides that Congress can pass legislation to carry its provisions into effect, which Congress has done on many aspects.<>
Section 5 of the 14th:
“The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.”
No mention of judicial jurisdiction.
Simple reason: State supreme courts do not have standing to rule on eligibility in federal office elections.
I would hope the Supreme Court would be so distressed by the ruling that they paint the Colorado Supreme Court as incompetent, and suggest that any litigant dissatisfied with a ruling there can automatically appeal that to the USSC, and they will automatically review it.
The Dimocrats know the ruling will get overturned and are counting on it. They can’t have him not get the nomination.
Those who are veterans will know what this means...
You have a chain.
You never break the chain.
Same goes for the courts.
Follow the chain.
Don’t jump it.
Appeals courts first.
They can rule and stay this incompetent decision just as well as the Supremes.
Never jump the chain.
There is something else going on here, and I got a feeling they want President Trump to jump the chain.
Stopped clock
He should invade Colorado.
"BOLTON: Well, ultimately it should be. But if this case – and I do think the Supreme Court will take it — that they they should not let this kind of erroneous decision rest out there because other cases are going to be brought, you can see it already — this has to be something that Congress itself, if they want to enact legislation — which they haven’t done for 150 years — about what the meaning of Section Three is, then it’s not up to the states to make it up as they go along."
Such a smarmy, wimpy way to 'commentate'.
This guy had a rep for being brash, usually in command of the facts, usually dead-wrong on policy, Trump cursed him out and of course, that moose moved Porn Mustache's cheese "How dare you curse at me?!? You and I are enemies now, Meester Trump grrr" lofl; and now he's reverted to what he was all along : "Johnny Simpering Milquetoast, CNN Commentator".
His family must be so proud, stupid c\/ck. His harridan wife probably texted him in the middle of his setup: "Stop on your way home and pick up some chicken, Milquetoast!"
