So what you're saying is that higher courts have never ever decided that a lower court's decision was wrong and/or unconstitutional and/or illegal and then overturned that decision?

I didn't even come remotely close to implying this? Just that not everything is always decided by a jury. Secretary of State says "I say this person is/is not qualified because X." Legal challenge ensues. Judge serves as finder of fact and says "Yep, not qualified." Appeals play out, including possibly all the way to SCOTUS. Ruling is either upheld or not. Done.

Also it's probably a little safer if a thing qualifying/disqualifying someone from holding office like that can be defined entirely within the text of the constitution & amendments. If you say 'Insurrection is someone committing the federal crime of "Insurrection."' You're opening the door for congress to write a law defining "Insurrection" as whatever the gently caress mush-brained Marjorie Taylor Green of the day has decided it should be.

They are all carrying you can see one of the guys with a pistol tucked in the back of his pants. They know they are all fragile enough that if someone throws a punch some other wussy will start mag-dumping. I wouldn't be shocked if they are trying to get someone so mad they do just so they can murder them.

That's a poor counter, you may as well say "You're trying to equate ages to things that are not ages." Okay? So what? He is not being found guilty of a crime. Historically other applications of the 14 amendment did not require a conviction.

Uncharted waters for sure, but people also have to realize:

1. none of those cases went any higher than Congress. Judicially, none went beyond state supreme courts.
2. Having officially declared an oath of allegiance to a (then technically) foreign body - with documentation - would easily constitute prima facie evidence.

Side-note: a foreign body that also happened to be one that had declared war on the United States. Just saying.

Oh come on. That's 100% false.

There's a reason murderers are referred to as a "suspected murderer" before a conviction. You can't be found guilty of something until a court finds you guilty. Without a conviction, what exactly do the states have to say that anyone engaged in insurrection? "Well because that's what we believe happened." If you think that's an argument that will fly at the SCOTUS level, whew.

Wait... do you not know how the judicial system works in this country? Because that's exactly how it works here.

Look up what "remand" means.

i'm entirely familiar with these specifics and if you were too i don't think you'd be so condescending.

someone being referred to as a suspected murderer before a conviction is precisely because they have yet to stand before a court that has standing and jurisdiction to make that finding. every other court has had standing to make the insurrection finding because the language to determine it is right there. that's why every court that has reviewed it so far has said "yeah he definitely did an insurrection", even republican ones. the SCOTUS absolutely also has standing to make that decision, and it is going to them because their jurisdiction on constitutional issues supersedes the other courts.

remanded judgements happen when the court in question does not have the standing to establish a point of law. an appellate court remands a judgement back down to a lower court because the appeal decision was "you hosed up this trial based on this point of law; however, we don't have the standing to decide what should happen, so do a new trial."

the main way remand would work in this case is assigning jail time or whatever other criminal consequences. that absolutely is going to happen. that sort of thing needs to be done by jury, and there's not going to be any jury in these hearings. but for the purposes of keeping him off the ballot? the SCOTUS absolutely does not need to remand that and it will cause substantial problems both with their authority and constitutional interpretation if they do that; if they remanded the question of donny t's insurrection, and therefore his eligibility, down to lower courts, it opens a possibility to a president that a bunch of states do not consider eligible to take office. that's an absolutely staggering crisis.

its why while stuff is worrying in various cases, i am not worried for the medium term or as much about the election least for now. trump robbed the GOP of any ability to plan more then an hour ahead, they can only react and they either have to be the oppoisite of mainstream culture OR whatever trump wants.

The way you are found to be under 35 is to be under 35. Being found to have committed a crime is not as cut and dried. They aren't even remotely the same category of "held to be true."

SCOTUS is not going to hand down a list of federal statutes and say 'These count as insurrection.' though. I guess we can get some kind of ruling that 'Must be found guilty by a federal jury of some crime meeting these set of specific criteria that we think would meet the common understanding of 'Insurrection' at the time the amendment was written.' maybe?

Even that's going to be weird because, ok someone is convicted of a crime, like Trump with the Jan 6 stuff. And THEN a SoS says they think it qualifies as insurrection and disqualifies them. Then you do the entire appeal all over again and it just ends up SCOTUS deciding if that specific crime counts as insurrection, I guess? I'm not sure how much the criminal conviction buys you in the legal sense there. The amendment just says 'did a thing' not 'convicted of the crime of X'.

I guess it depends on how you read 14.3, but people seem to be reading into it that it MUST mean 'guilty of the crime of X' and not 'did a thing'. Guilty of breaking a federal statute would be a weird rear end thing to have in the constitution since congress can just do whatever, or even rescind the law. I guess then the 14th section 3 just no longer exists then? Whether you think it's a good idea or not, it seems to me that this is a case where a judge can rule that XYZ happened or did not happen, and that's that. The 35 year age thing was supposed to be a ridiculous example, but what about all the conspiracy poo poo about birth citizenship? That COULD be more complicated in terms of evidence, testimony, etc... so why would we let a judge decide that and not insurrection?
