The Supreme Court is set to issue a ruling on Trump’s ballot eligibility after he challenged a decision by the Colorado Supreme Court to bar him from the 2024 primary ballot.
In December the Colorado Supreme Court disqualified Trump from the 2024 ballot.
All 7 Colorado Supreme Court justices were appointed by Democrats – 3 of the justices dissented to the ruling.
The legal theories are based on Section 3 of the US Constitution’s 14th Amendment which states public officials who have “engaged in insurrection or rebellion against” the US may be disqualified from public office.
Trump has not been charged with engaging in insurrection or rebellion against the United States.
Oral arguments before the Supreme Court on Trump’s ballot eligibility wrapped in early February.
The Supreme Court expressed skepticism as they heard arguments from Colorado lawyer Jason Murray. Even the liberal justices expressed concern.
“Why should a single state have the ability to make this determination not only for their own citizens but for the rest of the nation?” Justice Kagan asked.

I really don’t see how any Supreme Court could get around the “innocent until proven guilty” tenet of our legal system. That the leftist court in Denver did so shows the true level to which this country has sunk from its founding. Frankly, it’s the kind of decision, if wrong, that could actually start a civil war, IMO.
Banks wouldn’t have cell phone data.
Never liked that bank.
Unless they change something or rename it so it means nothing.
The left is the lowest of the lows.
I cant imagine they dont rule in his favor.
🙏🙏
Praying that this will be the first of two MAJOR MAGA
wins ensuring RPOTUS ballot access, then demolishing hopefully ALL of the cases against him by upholding POTUS Immunity!!!
A losing dissent from any of the 3 libs would be embarrassing, but marginally understandable, but for any of the others ....a reputation killer.
This uncustomary early announcement indicates major agreement. 9-0.
9-0.
Do you think the ruling will be broad enough to cover all the other states who are attempting to disqualify Trump from ballots?
I don’t see a problem with any direction of the ruling. If the Colorado ruling is upheld, then the dam can burst. There are at least 25 states that can take Biden off the ballot for promoting invasion with millions of illegals invited into the country.
I can’t understand why this opinion release has taken such a long time. To me, this looks like an easy one. I predict 9-0.
The immunity case looks like a much complicated case. The hearing for this case in 22 April. That doesn’t leave them much time to get their release out before the end of June.
100% it will be 9-0 for Trump, anything else would lead to absolute election chaos as the right and left start throwing each other off the ballot for anything they think applies.
Honestly, I'm not holding my breath. With all the good stuff happening to Trump lately I'm ready for the other shoe to drop. Call me "doubting Thomas" but I don't trust the courts.
Pretty telling > IMO.
If its 9-0 I hope Robert’s taps KJB or the wise Latina to write the opinion, that would be delicious.
I suspect they take longer at times to give the impression
they have deliberated at length, when in truth it was a
slam dunk from the get-go.
Just an exercise in pacifying the lunatic Left.
A 9/0 would certainly shut the Left up though. If even these
whacked out loons can see the light, it would have to have
been very sound irrefutable logic.
I saw a brief article a day or so ago saying if the SCOTUS goes against Trump he is moving his entire family out of the country to a safe haven...I would if it were me. Tomorrow will tell the tell for sure.
However this ruling comes down, our Judicial system has been tremendously damaged by Democrat abuse the last three years. It is forever tainted by its actions and the failures of higher courts in neglect of their duties.
They are all complicit and Roberts led the way with his contorted Obamacare baby splitting trying to be so thing he is as not named to be.
