SCOTUS has the ability, they are the only ones, to reset this whole mess, and restore the dignity to the Presidency and Dept of Justice.
Take the name TRUMP out of the lawsuits, and it would be easy to see that the prosecutions are an injustice to this man, because, with ANY other defendant, all cases would be thrown out long ago.
In short, the SCOTUS alone can bring common sense to all the arguments and issues being raised here.
A 9-0 ruling to throw out all these ridiculous lawsuits against Trump and others, would go far to unite the country.
If it comes back 5 to 4, or even 6 to 3 a win for Trump, it won’t put this thing to rest but initiate further resentment of our system from both sides.
But, Heaven forbid we lose 5 to 4, or worse yet 6 to 4, then this country is doomed, as it will open up a pandora’s box of lawsuits from “our side against their side”, and give further incentives to the left-wing radicals in media, DOJ, and Congress, among other entities to go after Trump and other conservatives.
Most of all, it will destroy the balance of power in the third wing of our government probably forever. Any future or even past presidency can now be sued for just about anything, but also in civil court?
Think about that in the context of what Americans, since our founding have seen and endured. We need all three equal branches of government.
Surely, there is common sense somewhere in the system to put us back to a time when we had respect for one another, and where we accepted vote outcomes, good or bad, but when we also had the right to voice a complaint about the integrity of the elections, without facing imprisonment.
There was no Trump-induced insurrection, everyone knows that.
The J-6 demonstration was mostly peaceful, conducted mostly by Peaceful God-fearing Americans. Everyone knows that.
Dozens if not a couple hundred, FBI and other agents intentionally instigated some to not be peaceful. Everyone with any common sense knows that too.
For all we know, the people who rioted and destroyed property could have been Antifa or BLM or even planted agents.
The 44,000 hours of J-6 video have been released, BUT THE FACES OF THE PARTICIPANTS ARE BEING BLURRED OUT? WHY?
Every one of the lawsuits against Trump is politically motivated. Everyone knows that, and people like Liz Cheney and this guy Kinsinger are mentally ill for all we know.
Let us pray that the SCOTUS puts this whole mess to rest with a strong ruling on the side of what is fair and right for all Americans and future presidents.
The left would go crazy. They already want to “pack the court” with liberal judges.
If the liberal judges join with the conservatives, sure they’ll be an outcry, but the left will accept it.
Ketanji Brown Jackson is not going to vote in favor of Trump. I’m not sure if Roberts or Kavanaugh will. The swamp doesn’t want him to win, both eGOP and hard left.
Roberts hates Trump and will screw America yet again.
They're the same - leftism has many brand names.
I place very little faith in whatever they decide.
Then it will show how irrelevant they are and SCOTUS is.
Voting 9-0 tells the country to “knock it off.”
I think they will all look at this from a ‘after-Trump prospective’. Do you want some crazy sue-the-President agenda popping up with the next dozen Presidents. This isn’t a Trump-only affect. I’m pretty sure it will take out various future candidates if it goes against Trump.
As for a 9-0 ruling? No...won’t happen.
It would be a strong message to judges at all levels to knock it off with the persecutions of conservative heterosexual normals, whites, people who fear God, non-drug-using, noncriminal Americans.
The leftist people on SCOTUS are the most unprincipled, evil, America-hating, Rat hacks in all of government.
They have done immeasurable damage to the country in the past century.
We would be in far better shape to have had a jury of nine layperson deplorables, or even nine bright seventh-graders, to decide the SCOTUS cases of the past eight decades, than them.
They are despicable, with a few exceptions.
They won’t. The communist fix is in. Roberts is compromised. They are going to set the standard for the future persecution of candidates. The courts will be picking our presidents based on the highest bidder no matter how the people vote.
“I think they will all look at this from a ‘after-Trump prospective’. Do you want some crazy sue-the-President agenda popping up with the next dozen Presidents.”
I thought this for quite awhile. Until I realized they are now too flexible and just change their stance flip flopping back and forth depending on how the wind is blowing that day. And then they do absolutely nothing about ruling in a manner that would prevent total ignorance of their rulings after the fact. Nothing is solid as “go no go” period, they leave gray area openings that can be skirt and be “debatable” to their ruling.
Anymore their rulings are just ignored and treated as “suggestions” that have no legal standing or power. And they don’t do anything to change this and get the legal powers of the judicial branch back. So they will absolutely rule one way now and then change their ruling when the next president comes.
“A 9 to 0 Ruling By SCOTUS in Favor of Trump Will Go A Long Way to Unite This Country”
That’s exactly why it won’t happen.
Not gonna happen. Smith wouldn’t have sent to USSC if he didn’t think it would be successful.
It will never...never...never...never...*ever* happen. Not only will a 9-0 vote in his favor ever happen but it seems quite unlikely....maybe even *very* unlikely...that a 5-4 vote in his favor will happen.
Wont ever happen.
We will not get a 9-0 ruling. At best, 6-3.
Please don’t expect SCOTUS to ever side with Trump on anything. If that were to happen it will be 5-4. I doubt that.
My comment said, i would still pray and hope that it do3s happen.
