By unanimous agreement The Supreme Court corrected the errors of lower courts

Your retort is “pelting with popcorn” the part of my post you addressed.

Oh, I didn't notice the "whether" he was charged...easier to miss things on the phone. I thought you were implying that he had not been charged, when of course he has been charged with many felonies in three different jurisdictions.

I am sorry. And "pelting with popcorn" is a term used, in this case, to indicate that the 91-charge multiple indictments were significantly more serious than being pelted with popcorn.

Since you use the handle Notre Dame, I will tell you where that phrase originated. Apparently confessors in convents filled with nuns described their confessing their sins as being "pelted with popcorn..." so insignificant were the sins.

4 concurrence opinion by Barrett, Sotomayor, Jackson and Kagan 1.) They agree only with the judgment but 2) The majority, rightly, went further than necessary to decide the case by Holding 3) Congress must pass legislation before Sec 3 can be enforced since, after all 4.) Sec 3 plain text does not mandate Congressional action for enforcement and 5.) Forecloses some other mechanism by federal power to enforce Sec 3.

Why would Congress need to pass legislation when the text of the article is clear?

To protect Donald, of course. Heaven forbid he be held accountable or anything.

Unfortunately, they were not authorized to stop the wolf at their gate.

It's up to us voters to do so!

You think i's "unfortunate" that the Supreme Court upheld the US Constitution?

Alrighty then.

It is "unfortunate" that the states of Illinois, Colorado, and more have more ethics than the several morally compromised members of the Supreme Court who, through postponements and other manipulations, are serving as co-dependent enablers to a former president whose behavior is so reprehensible it presents a clear and present danger to our country.

Pssst... - it was UNANIMOUS - not one dissention from the liberal justices - why is that?

One Liberal judge in Illinois judge over ruled the Board of Elections decision to leave Trump on the ballot and people do not see an issue with that?
Does anyone know who the Board of Elections represent - the majority of the voters.

Than Goodness for the Liberal Justices who has the more ethics and stood up for what is right and did fall in lock and step with the tribe, but judged the laws rightly.

Personal opinion only: I think it shows how absolutely desperate the left is to keep Joe in office so they can continue their reign of power. They must have really low confidence in him to go to these undemocratic levels.

Reality in this case is that President Trump is innocent because there have never even been charges and that is legal precedent in the US

The reality is that the SC never mentioned whether Trump was guilty of insurrectionist activity or not. Their decision was not based on that at all.

Colorado's was....

 

[Hank77]

Colorado's was....

So?
This thread is discussing the SC's decision.

So?
This thread is discussing the SC's decision.

Which was brought about because of Colorado's actions -

That is why it is germane to the thread - if Colorado had not overstepped their authority, this would have never made it to the Supreme Court - it has been in the news for months -
