It’s a much more fair election this way.

I knew they wouldn't take him off the ballot. The Trump supporters would erupt like Mount St Helens. Wouldn't want those J6ers on the steps to the SC 😄

It was a unanimous decision.

“We conclude that States may disqualify persons holding or attempting to hold state office. But States have no power under the Constitution to enforce Section 3 with respect to federal offices, especially the Presidency,” the Court ruled.

It had to be a unanimous decision. Would you want to worry about J6 types raiding your work place or home?

This is kind of an intricate quote to respond to…

On one hand, they seem scary, right? Scary right wingers with sticks and guns…possibly emotionally forcing the Supreme Court to rule in favor of allowing voters to chose their own candidate.

On the other hand, that was probably their goal.

"The Supreme Court said Monday it was avoiding “chaos” by squashing state-level efforts to throw Donald Trump off the ballot."

Now if only there were a way of "avoiding chaos" that will result from him being on the ballot.

Exactly,

If they made this decision to avoid chaos, then that chaos would be directly correlated to the freedoms and liberties conservatives view their American rights to be.

If there was a goal to attempt to “rise up” against the government to force them into securing their electoral freedom… they’re going to feel like they won.

When they keep bringing up the founding fathers, this is partly why… because they were the ones that fought back and secured their own freedoms. They like comparing today to back then, and they like thinking they’re acting like the founding fathers would have…
