Get wrecked, TDS cultists.
SCOTUS didn't address the fact that he was adjudicated an insurrectionist though. His defense specifically wanted him cleared of it. So I wouldn't call it a full victory.
I suppose it makes the question moot as far as the question posed to SCOTUS on this occasion - Do the states have the authority to remove Donald (under any circumstances) = no.
I suppose that part of the defense could have just been for show.
That being said, the SCOTUS opinion did delve into how the 14th amendment could be used, which is what caused concurrences by ACB and the liberal judges who felt it was out of scope.
Thanks for the additional context, I haven't had time to read the ruling for myself yet.
