It remains to be seen how SCOTUS will rule, or if they will rule, but what I describe is how The Founders intended it to be.
"The Founders" would never have thought that a criminal peace of shit like Donald Stinky Trump would ever be potus. (just like "The Founders" wouldn't have given to everyone the right to buy an assault rifle, etc.)
What do you mean by "if they rule"? Does that mean they kick it back down to the appellate court and its "case closed"? Trump would be off the ballot then? Is that how it works?
The lawsuits against the exclusion of President Donald Trump is starting today. Oral arguments will be heard by the US Supreme Court. Let us hope the US Supreme Court does the right thing and slaps these bogus lawsuits down and call out the BS of the Democrats. That needs to happen. What the US Supreme Court does with this case will impact other cases filed against President Donald Trump.
The US Supreme Court agreed to hear the case so, they would have to rule on it, one way or the other. Let us hope they defend the US constitution and slap down this conspiracy to exclude President Donald Trump from the ballot.
They have agreed to hear the Colorado case, but have not agreed to take up the immunity case as Trump is beginning the appeal now. If they were to not take the immunity case, then yes the appellate court's ruling would stand.
Here's another (probably dumb) question. Take Illinois or CA, there's no way Trump will win those states. I mean never say never, but in reality he won't. So hypothetically, if he's removed from the ballots there... does it even matter? He won't get those electoral college votes anyway right?
In that case it wouldn't matter except that people in those states would be deprived of their right to vote against him.
I should point out that Trump is embracing a 50 state campaign strategy and so I'm not sure we can count those states totally out. For example, he is within 8 points in NY right now where Biden won by 23 points.
