SCOTUS Makes the Case for Trump Update: (and again)

It’s been an interesting week at the high court.

Yesterday the Court struck down affirmative action in college admissions and also had one of the most historic takedowns of a SCOTUS judge by another as Clarence Thomas illustrated the difference between a justice who had worked hard despite growing up in the segregated south who knows what a woman is and one that is an affirmative action hire that is unable to answer that question under oath.

Today the court once again told Colorado that they can not compel speech against a person’s religion despite the determined efforts of Colorado to continue to attempt to do this.

Now the reality of these rulings are that both the university system which has a lot of people whose income is based on this kind of thing, and Colorado which didn’t let the last SCOTUS ruling on cakes stop them from playing this game are likely to be either noveled by the Universities or ignored by Colorado neither of which are likely to face consequences for their actions, but it DOES do one important thing.

It makes the case for Donald Trump in election 2024.

There are arguments for and against Donald Trump as the GOP nominee but no argument is better than these two 6-3 rulings which along with the Dobbs ruling nuking abortion as a right, were only made possible by three justices appointed by Trump.

Unlike previous GOP presidents who tended to appoint Justices who had a 50-50 chance of suddenly turning liberal, Trump’s judges have been so solid that old yellowstain Justice Roberts unable to be the 5th vote for the left (see obamacare) has repeatedly decided to join conservative majorities making 6-3 rulings rather than 5-4.

Now there might be those who argue that any GOP President could have delivered these victories, and they might argue that a DeSantis (likely) or a Scott (maybe) or even a Christie (never) might have made the same solid appointments given a chance, they may even be right.

But in the end “any” GOP president did not deliver these victories and while it may or may not be true that a DeSantis or Scott, or Pence of Christie might deliver, Trump can say unequivocally that he DID deliver.

If I ran the Trump campaign I’d be making this case every single day in every single appearance I made in the country.

UPDATE: While I was writing this post SCOTUS struck down Biden’s attempt to toss student loan debt from those who took it on to taxpayers again 6-3. Maybe it’s just me but I think it’s a better argument for Trump then declaring that election 2024 is all about retribution.

The Left Won’t Like this Silver Lining

There was a lot of crowing on the left over the SCOTUS decision in the North Carolina case

the Supreme Court ruled on Tuesday that although the Constitution gives state legislatures the power to regulate federal elections, state courts can supervise the legislature’s exercise of that power. By a vote of 6-3, the court rejected the so-called “independent state legislature theory,” holding that the North Carolina Supreme Court did not violate the Constitution when it set aside a congressional map adopted by the state’s legislature.

The left is pretty happy about this, but there is a real silver lining here, and it involves one of the liberals long term plans to own this nation. It’s the National popular vote compact.

This is a deal by which a state agrees to give its electoral votes in a presidential election to the winner of the national popular vote regardless of how the population of the state actually votes in a presidential election.

It’s a great system if your goal is to disenfranchise the voters of your state on a permanent basis. My own currently deep blue state has foolishly gone along with this and I saw no remedy to it as the Constitution clearly gives the state legislature power to determine how electoral votes are cast.

However this decision opens the door to an end around through the courts. If the legislature does not have the final word in how federal elections are cast then we can petition the courts for redress and perhaps even trust the judges on SCOTUS to protect the our franchise.

Does this guarantee victory? No, but it gives a chance, a chance that didn’t exist if the independent state legislature theory was in place.

Let them cheer today, there may be a time in the future that those cheers over this ruling may turn to sobs.

100 Word Fan Fiction: Generally Brilliant

“I still do not see why we didn’t follow them General.”, Said the Major,“ We could have captured that entire underground cell.”

“Feldkamp you have no imagination, if we followed them what would we have? A couple of small potatoes, this way the Allies not only believe the plans have gotten through but are convinced we never found them. Patton will still land at the Pas de Callas and we will be ready for him when he does.”

“Simply Brilliant General.” mouthed the Commandant nodding.

Burkhalter grimaced: “I’m glad you approve Klink otherwise I’d have been worried.”

The First and Most Important Question for Every Election 2024 GOP Candidate

Posted: June 28, 2023 by datechguy in election 2024, elections, politics

Democrat Bosses in Wisconsin Michigan and Minnesota had no inkling that the election [2016] was close, that being the case there was no reason why, in an age where proof of a federal offense is a cell phone video away, Dem bosses in Detroit or elsewhere felt the need to take any risk.  They figured those states were won (and they were right about Minnesota) and by election night it was too late to change it.

However that won’t be the case in 2020,  I’ll wager that in 2020 the bosses in Milwaukee, Detroit, Madison and elsewhere will be ready, we’ll see plenty of mail in ballots and absentee ballots that we didn’t see before in those states and plenty of voters looking to go for the GOP will be in the same spot that Steven Kruiser was on election night.

The time to be ready for 2020 Fraud is NOW! Nov 18th 2016 reprinted Nov 7th 2020

I was going to write a piece today about a standing problem Donald Trump has with the GOP electorate for 2024 but that can wait a bit because as I was writing the piece I began with a caveat and realized that said caveat is should be the single biggest issue for any potential GOP voter who wants to stop the weaponization of the government against them before it ends as such things always do.

The question is this:

“What will you as the GOP nominee for President do to prevent the election from being illegally stolen from you either in the six key counties that were used to steal the last one or elsewhere and what will you do to counter Democrats tactics like ballot harvesting in states where it is legal to do so.”

As Salma Zito noted there are in fact lots of GOP voters who are sick of the subject and may reject the premise of the question and if a candidate prefaces any answer with something like: “I’m not going to re-litigate 2020…” but still has a credible action plan in place to address potential fraud that’s good enough for me. After all General Sherman never admitted he made a mistake in the frontal assault on the Confederate forces at Kennesaw Mountain but he never repeated it. As long as a GOP candidate doesn’t repeat the mistakes of 2020 I don’t care what he says about it.

BUT: Any potential GOP nominee who does not have a good answer to this question AND rejects the need for an action plan to address this question has absolutely no business being considered for the nomination because they are either:

  • An idiot too stupid to be president

OR

  • A false flag candidate in the employ of the left/deep state

Without the right stance on this issue any other argument for a candidate means nothing because that candidate can not win, not even against Joe Biden.

You have been warned.

I’ll leave the closing argument to Sarah Hoyt who saw all of this coming months before anyone else in 2020:

Look, they are tainted by the previous failed coups, tainted by (most if not all of them) accepting money from Xi, and FYI China ALWAYS arranges for extra compromise for security, honeypots being their favorite, tainted even by association with Epstein. A second Trump term means a good chance that they go down hard and don’t get up again.


ALL OF THEM from the left politicians to the so called “tech lords” are fighting for their lives.
They’re cornered rats. There’s nothing they won’t do.
