Former President Donald Trump Files His Brief in U.S. Supreme Court

On January 18, former President Donald Trump filed his brief in the U.S. Supreme Court in the Colorado ballot access case, Trump v Anderson, 23-719.

His arguments, in this order, are:  (1) Section Three doesn’t apply to president and vice-president; (2) Trump did not engage in insurrection; (3) Section Three needs an implementing law and Congress has never passed such a law; (4) Section Three doesn’t relate to running for office, but holding office; (5) The Colorado challenge statute doesn’t permit a Colorado state court to order the Secretary of State to remove a candidate from a ballot.

The brief does not use the argument that governments cannot interfere with a political party’s process for choosing a nominee, but that is because the Colorado Republican Party is also in the case and the party makes that argument.

  2. @AZ,

    Is that a vote for Biden or Brandon?

    In Texas write-in votes may be captured using a virtual keyboard. When tabulating votes, they counted each different spelling variant as it is encountered. So Biten, Bidden, Bidet would likely be counted for JRB.

  3. All of the pro Trump arguments are correct, and among the many reasons why the Colorado decision was trash, and will end up in the trash when the Supreme Court is done.

    Trump will be on every ballot.

    Trump will win a massive landslide victory.

    The evil demon rats won’t be able to cheat enough to win this time.

    Trump will be President again.

    Trump will save America.

    Vote Trump!
