One main reason to have Trump back is the ensuing tears.

Just get their records from serving in the Confederacy. That’s what the 14th Amendment is about.

This gives the Supreme Court major power to second guess any congressional decision over enforcement of Section 3.

An "election law expert" should know better than this. In fact, the decision explicitly says that only congress has the power to enforce Section 3, when it comes to the election of federal office seekers.

I’m weary to the limit with this. You can’t do things to someone or legally take action against them for insurrection without trying and convicting them if it. Saying the words doesn’t make it true.

It just doesn’t occur to them that Biden is 100 times worse than what they’re accusing Trump of.

The left would like nothing more than to re-write The Constitution/Bill of Rights....

Good because the Left is on this like flies on rice.

They’re barely able to keep composure.

Please show me where Congress “certifies” a Presidential election.

The process whereby the State Legislatures appoint a new President excludes the existing President, the Congress, and the Federal Courts from the process.

The House of Representatives (alone) has the right to choose the President if the State Legislatures fail to appoint someone.

The Senate (alone) has the right to choose the Vice President if the State Legislatures fail to appoint someone.

Voting by individual State citizens is optional. Any State Legislature can dispense with that at any time.

The Congress (in Joint Session) MUST count the Electoral Votes in open, public session to avoid fear of back room wheeling and dealing. But their counting doesn’t “certify” anything. Once 270 Electors are found to have voted for someone, that person is President-elect and requires no action by Congress to make him so, and there is no action Congress can take to prevent his taking office at noon on January 20.

In fact, as soon as the votes are counted, the person the State Legislatures have chosen could appear in front of a Federal Judge or other qualified official, swear or affirm the oath, and he would automatically be President at noon on January 20 without any further action by anyone.

Fascists insurrectionists, democracy…

The left uses these words, but I don’t think they really know what the words mean…

It has been 163 years since the last insurrection in this nation. So, there’s no rush on this.

I'm afraid nut jobs will eliminate Trump or Biden. Not any good news at all for the left. They are like rabid animals. Beware.

I want DJT back for many reasons....1.5% inflation,$1.99 a gallon milk and a southern border sealed tight being near the top of the list.

I agree with the minority.
SCOTUS should have just ruled narrowly on this. Not a state’s issue and be done.

The use of the 14th for something other than what it was intended, was to keep Pres. Trump from a 2nd term.
Nothing more.

So, now let’s say, the same scenario with Pres. Trump’s 2nd term.
Super rat majority in the house and senate.
(We need to keep our eyes on those balls...almost more important the Pres. Trump getting elected)

Charges a President with insurrection and sends the referral to DOJ.
DOJ decides to indict.
Will there be a trial ?
If so, where will the trial be held ?
D.C.
Guessing there would be no appeal to SCOTUS because SCOTUS already left it up to Congress ?

Makes no sense. The left has completely forgotten that Trump withstood the impeachment vote for his actions. No court in the land has found him guilty of insurrection.
