Get ready for the Communists’ “STACK THE COURT!” mantra.

The Supreme Court said Friday it will decide whether former President Donald Trump can be kept off the ballot because of his efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss,

I do not have the best memory at times. So forgive this ignorant question. Since when has it been illegal to challenge the results of an election? Is demanding a correction to a result one believes is fraudulent the same thing as trying to overturn a legit outcome?

“Donald Trump can be kept off the ballot because of his efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss”

Trump didn’t try to overturn it like Democrats did with their Russia collusion hoax. All he said to do was to “protest peaceably”

Let the voters decide whether Donald Trump will be the nominee and not the courts.

"The Supreme Court will decide if Trump can be kept off 2024 presidential ballots"

How does State government have jurisdiction over a Federal election?

I wonder if Chad Gore would be in agreement with DNC position. He actually got a recount.

This SHOULD>/b> be a slam dunk win in favor of Trump. If there are two dissensions or more then the D’s will scream bloody murder (they probably will anyway).but a 9-0 or 8-1 win would shut them up, on this subject at least.

If I were on the Supreme Court, here is how I would play this out:

  1. Ruling "ripeness," I would say that the lower courts cannot rule on keeping Trump off of the ballot because this isn't a general election and former President Trump hasn't won the primary yet.
  2. After the primaries are concluded, I would point out that primaries are party-specific nomination processes, and that even the winner of the primary is not the official candidate until the party's convention selects the candidate it wants to run in the general election.
  3. After the convention confirms former President Trump as its nominee, I would rule that Trump is not actually on the ballot, Electors are. Trump's name is a convenient tag to make it easier for the voters, but according to the Constitution it's the Electors who are being voted on, so removing Trump from the ballot is really removing the Electors from the ballot, which is unconstitutional.
  4. If former President Trump actually wins the general election, THEN AND ONLY THEN should the Supreme Court review President-elect Trump's qualification to be President via the 20th amendment Section 3: " if the President elect shall have failed to qualify, then the Vice President elect shall act as President until a President shall have qualified;"
  5. At this point, the Supreme Court should hear 14th amendment Section 3 arguments regarding disqualification over insurrection. This finding will then meet or fail to meet the 20th amendment's "fail to qualify" clause and the President-Elect may or may not be disqualified at this time.
  6. The beauty of this is the same as when Democrats tamper with the election: the party that wins still wins. If Trump is disqualified after winning the election, the Republican VP takes over as President, instead of the Democrats' plan to remove Trump so that Biden can win the election.

there is ZERO chance the supreme court will allow this. Because if they do, red states will immediately start throwing Democrats off the ballots for any reason they see fit.

This is a fairly easy case for them. Many states have rejected tossing Trump off the ballot. Many more wont even touch it. 9-0 ruling.

The same group that cannot say abortion is the murder of a child, only states can decide.

The same bunch that said....a slave is propery, send him back.

Yea. Those arbiters of falsehood.

Arguments will be held in early February.

Should have enough time to read the Constitution again and get it right.
