I don't understand how the Supreme Court could rule on anything yet. Trump hasn't been convicted of or charged with insurrection or rebellion!

The question is whether or not he can be prosecuted at all.

He's gotten FAR better treatment that 99.9% of Americans would in Court. We would ALL be in jail by now. lol


We would not have been prosecuted in the first place.

from what I read on the Miami case I don't see how he avoids a conviction on at least some of the charges.

I think he's trying his best to give the GOP time to find a new candidate quick.

It's better for the entire country to let the court cases play out sooner rather than later.

Maybe on the over valueing assets on loan applications, but everything else we would.

This sure is gonna suck for old Joseph Biden!! He may actually put in a call to Jack Smith himself and have him pull back on the reins a bit.

It really doesn’t matter what the appeals court says as both parties will appeal to the SCOTUS.

You will, unless you believe that the justice system in this country will treat Trump fairly

You have to be a huge gaping vag to think like that.

They want this trial to conclude after most primaries are done but before the election/convention.

Max pain inflicted.

They are simply better at this than the Right.

This tells you all you need to know.


It's not about justice.
It's all political.

SCOTUS should slow walk this. Let it run its course in the Federal appeals system. SCOTUS should hear it in the Fall, then let the electorate weigh in before issuing any ruling.

Resolving this question now as opposed to six months from now benefits everyone, except Donald Trump in his individual capacity.

This question doesn’t need to drag on all year.
