Now that I've had time to read all three opinions issued by the Court today in the Trump eligibility case, I see this as very bad news for Republicans. All of the judges made crystal clear that they would not save the Republican Party from destroying itself tomorrow during the Super Tuesday primaries. Justice Barrett, however, wanted to leave open the possibility that the Court might step in later if Republicans do the unthinkable. And the "3 liberal women," as Certain People describe them, fully agreed, in their five-page separate opinion, with Justice Barrett's succinct one-page opinion.
I still believe, as I predicted at the outset, that Congress will decide whether or not Trump is eligible, but only if Trump wins the general election.
Any politician who is trying to circumvent the Supreme Court decision yesterday is literally trying to start an insurrection and should be removed from office and thrown in jail.
Newt Gingrich on X @newtgingrich
The biggest meaning of the Supreme Court decision on Colorado is that by 9-0 the Justices concluded that the biggest threat to democracy was not Donald Trump it was the left. Properly driven this can become a major political definition for the rest of the campaign and proof positive that the threat from the left is so great even the liberal Justices voted to protect the American people's right to have candidates they choose.
Trump needs to pound this for the next 8 months.
