Basically this. Even under the assumption that there would be some political sympathies, the ramifications of a reversal are far more severe and long lasting than the political fallout/damage to the Republican party. Timeframe-wise, I'm not sure what scheduling rules are binding on SCOTUS appeals/ruling on a petition for certiorari. So that is a concern. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Gorsuch & Roberts will probably vote with the liberals. Dunno about the others. Thomas probably won't because Thomas gimmick is that he's always wrong.

I just don't see what the SCOTUS has to gain from protecting Trump at this point. Their positions are already locked in for life.
I'm thinking MAYBE they fear violence from Trumpers, but haven't they already ruled against him before? --- I have nothing else to say ... Copied to Clipboard!

I feel like Roberts is usually rational for the most part despite being a Republican. We know Thomas will side with Trump. Alito prob will too. That leaves one of Kavanaugh or Coney Barrett to deny the appeal.

We cannot accept former President Trump's claim that a President has unbounded authority to commit crimes that would neutralize the most fundamental check on executive power - the recognition and implementation of election results. Nor can we sanction his apparent contention that the Executive has carte blanche to violate the rights of individual citizens to vote and to have their votes count.
At bottom, former President Trump's stance would collapse our system of separated powers by placing the President beyond the reach of all three Branches. Presidential immunity against federal indictment would mean that, as to the President, the Congress could not legislate, the Executive could not prosecute and the Judiciary could not review. We cannot accept that the office of the Presidency places its former occupants above the law for all time thereafter. --- "Freedom was meaningless without ownership and control over one's own body" -Tera Hunter 'Joy My Freedom' [Evil Republican] 3DS FC: 5429-7297-4842 ...

Like, I understand perfectly why people fast results with these cases, or that most of Trump's bullshit should be met with a reaction of "I'm not even going to dignify that with a response because it's so obviously wrong / corrupt." But it's worth the wait to give our legal system the time to craft an iron-clad ruling such as this that gives the GOP and / or bad faith actors virtually no room to 'ackshually' their way around the issue. --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. ...

I think the SC will decline to take on the appeal, I even imagine that was the reasoning behind deferring taking the case up initially when Jack Smith tried to jump to the end. The conclusion is so obvious that I just don't think the SC wanted their names on the line of the decision fearing retribution given that they are more public figures. Or in some cases the blowback from friends/donors/friendly donors. Also this will let Trump to continue to rage on about how his rights are being violated since the SC didn't hear his appeal. ...
