  • Sadly, I wouldn't bet on the SC removing him from the ballot. Even if some of them want to, I doubt they have the bottle to be the ones who decide the election. Politico has a piece about it today. Seems about right: "Most legal observers doubt that a majority of justices will declare Trump ineligible to run. A far more likely result, experts say, is that the court will find an “off-ramp” that will allow Trump to remain on the ballot based on a narrow or technical reading of the 14th Amendment’s insurrection clause." https://www.politico.com/news/2024/01/24/trump-nomination-supreme-court-14th-amendment-00137484

    But they're not elected. They can do what they want. Which makes them an intriguing obstacle.
