Appeals Court's Trump immunity decision contains a colorful, devastating summary of charges against the appellant

[bucolic_frolic]

5. There it is, consistent with 14A Sec 3 "At this stage of the prosecution, we assume that the allegations set forth ..."

"At this stage of the prosecution, we assume that the allegations set forth in the Indictment are true."

So, IF it turns out the allegations are false, Trump can ask the Congress to remove the disqualification IF he wins the election. All his chestnuts would have to align with the planets.

"Section 3.
No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability."

So from this ruling, high level courts seem to want to return to normalcy, meaning the pre-Trump era. No way that Bozo will capture 2/3 of each House. SCOTUS will disqualify him. And if he feels differently, and wins the election, he can go challenge it in Congress. This is why it doesn't say there must be a conviction. The courts may disqualify, or the Congress may decline to re-qualify. It's politics, and we may still be in for a year of "was it an insurrection? No! It was tourists!"
