Read the full decision.
Great idea, ban the frontrunner of the only other viable Party from running for office, this won’t have any consequences at all!
You think election denialism was bad before? Just wait until it’s literally illegal for Trump to get elected lol
The nation is only as strong as we’re willing to fight corruption and enforce laws.
If Trump faces no consequences it will be easier for the next dictator wannabe to seize control.
Pissing off maga morons is a small price to pay.
Perfectly valid action to take when that front runner is a traitor to the nation he swore to serve.
If that’s true then people votes should decide that, if you don’t believe the people then the nation is doomed
Texas is talking about taking Biden off the ballot.
This country is barely hanging on dude
This is exactly why this is a terrible idea from the get-go. This will just embolden every state to pick and choose who they want on a ballot.
Edit: Just to add onto the point a little bit… Take note of how many red states there are. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_states_and_blue_states
Now imagine that 100% of them now push Blue off the ballots all together. And the ones that are light, could force a dark reddening, Blue would NEVER win an election ever again. Just letting a court choose to define what happened on Jan 6 as an insurrection leaves this problem on the table. It’s also against the American motto of Innocent until proven guilty to just let a court decide that without trial and jury. None of the current cases against Trump have the “insurrection” as a charge, so he’s never been guilty of it… including the impeachment. Find him guilty, like the southern office holders, then you have a case. But jumping the gun like this just makes you all look looney tunes and opens the doors to all sorts of abuse that WILL NOT work in your favor.
What’s the point what’s the point of having an election if we’re just going to ignore the laws anyway?
The laws that say he can run for office are also on the same constitution that say he’s no longer elligible, what is this cherry picking laws nonsense?
Great idea, don’t hold former presidents to account when they attempt to subvert democracy, that won’t have any consequences at all!
If they wanted to hold him to account they’d have charged him immediately after the insurrection, rather than waiting for the next election. Why did they wait so long? Now he’s campaigning and can use every decision against him to rally his supporters into a frothing mob.
You mean like the impeachment or any of the trials we’ve had for his criminal behavior? Yeah, why didn’t they do that immediately??? And while we’re at it, why does the legal system move so slowly???
