It’s clear the 14th amendment does not apply to President. It’s also clear in section 5 it is the power of congress not states. Finally, if states could have done this that’s saying Mississippi and other southern slave states could have banned republicans from office post civil war. It’s nonsensical.
I love how sometimes the constitution is living, interpretable document, and other times it is a verbatim mandatory rulebook, just depending on which way they want to rule on any given issue.
A person has to note that republicans does not favor State Rights that go against them, however they approve of State Rights that affect Women Rights to choose what to do with their bodies.
Why are we even going through this? We all know that this man or should I say so-called man is guilty of insurrection!
MAGA STRONG Trump 2024!!!!!
You have to be dumb to believe that these justices can be impartial. This is a political court as I pointed out long time ago. With 6 of them appointed by Republican presidents and 3 of which appointed by Donald Trump, it's not hard to predict what the outcome is going to be.
It's important to respect whatever the SCOTUS's decision to maintain order & stability. Failure to do so would lead to chaos & the rule of the jungle! While the rule of law implies that nobody is above the law & everyone is subject to it, the rule of law doesn't judge the fairness of the law itself; rather, it outlines the specific legal procedures that the legal framework must follow! However, due to the many complexities of interpreting the law, the legal system may not consistently deliver justice?! I think Mr. Trump systematically targeted! Viva Justice & God Bless America!
I listened to this as a foreigner. This attorney is facing a tough supreme court. The chances are not looking good for him. Secondly, do Americans think of Republican states doing the same thing? America can break up because of a thing like this. You all wake up and smell the danger.
This is just a waste of time I ain't even going to listen to this anymore because they going to make up their mind they going to keep them on the ballot and let the people of the United States make they decision at the ballot box so in that case I wouldn't even waste my voice with the supreme Court because they going to keep them on the ballot anyway
Donald Trump is the Truth the Hope the Light and the Way for America and the World 0:27
Cop-Out.
[rejection of insurrection clause for the upholding of the appeals court’s no immunity ruling]
Offices Vs Officers 🤢
If the SC votes NOT in favor of Colorado being able to disqualfy Trump from the ballot, will None of the States be able to Disqualify him??
While we are pondering the Confederate era…can we discuss income tax?
The court had their chance and blew it!🤬
Thank you for broadcasting this today. Every American should hear this hearing. Whatever ruling the Supreme Court makes. Every voter has a chance to hear this and understand the court's thinking. This argument must be answered. It is all about putting the wellbeing of our country over political games.
Supreme court bought and payed for by conservitive mega donors 🤬🤬🤬
Enabling Trump to be re-elected based on implicit immunity:
[re: "Officer" definition argument and the unique detail (?) that to date he is the sole President in history not to have first held any elected or other government position for which the Constitutional Oath of office was sworn.]
This is unfathomable.
It opens the door to absolute power!
Who can't see that this serves up full Authoritarian power, including striking down term limits or the Federal Government's 3 bodied structure designed to protect the United States Democratic Republic from becoming a Fascist Dictatorship?
So we are hearing the arguments now. How long before the SCOTUS reaches their decision? How much more delay will they grant the Orange loser?
It's all fear…
This case will have ramifications for the rest of this SCOTUS’ credibility and morals. Not one justice has recused themselves yet they should have done so when this was filed. They’re literally cutting off everyone but Trumps attorney from finishing their answers.
Well… only 45 minutes in and we can all see where this ruling is going. What a freaking joke. Trump is disqualified in Colorado and he’s having a public tantrum. SCOTUS is his binky.
The office of the president is occupied by the president/commander in chief the highest ranking officer. You can’t have an insurrectionist in command of the government and the military. Citizen TRE45ON is disqualified .
I love the grounded reality of this channel!!,Despite the recession, I no longer depend on Government Grants since I acquire $16,400 bi weekly profits👍👍 !!!
