not sure about Sotomayor as she isn’t entirely logical or well-informed.

Thank you for clarifying.

I must admit, Trump's attorney Jonathan Murray is brilliant. I don't think I've ever heard a more prepared attorney and he seemed to be UNSTUMPABLE by the justices. I am IMPRESSED and the female RAT justices seem favorable to his arguments.

Jason Murray is IN OVER HIS HEAD. He keeps referring to Trump's argument and NOT much LEGAL PRECEDENCE. Not good.

At a minimum 6-3 but I can see this going 9-0.

That makes sense to me as well. It depends if the 3 gals want a political ruling or one based on the constitution.

Justice Kagan to Colorado’s lawyer: “The question you have to confront is why one state should decide who gets to be president of the United States.”

Jason Murray clerked for Justice Elena Kagan of the U.S. Supreme Court and Neil Gorsuch of the Tenth Circuit. Jason graduated magna cum laude from Harvard Law School in 2011, after earning a B.A. in Political Science and Government from Harvard University in 2008.


Very interesting. Thanks!

Court is hammering him on the chaos this could cause leaving things to each individual state in this regard.

When we used to have the discussions about Thomas’ previously rare oral argument questions, I heard some appeals attorneys explain that the oral arguments were not the case presentations, which were fully written, but instead, minor nuance chance questions where issues could be drawn out by a Justice. Totally unlike a regular court.

This is looking like 9-0. This CO guy is saying the justices are wrong, not a good strategy.

Yikes, I got a name wrong. He’s not Jonathan Murray, he’s JONATHAN MILLER.

Makes sense, From what I am hearing the justices can’t even believe the CO attorney is making a case, they are shredding his case trying to give him an opportunity to make one and he can’t.

Too bad ACB can’t. She’s a pet seeking approval from her master, Roberts.
