'Strikingly Anti-Democratic' - Supreme Court Bombshell Rocks Democrats After Colorado Decision

Hey ladies and gentlemen, this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America and the Supreme Court

Well, they're likely getting prepared for a supreme smackdown on the Colorado Supreme Court

after one of the most egregious, absurd, anti-democratic decisions in history. And if you don't believe me, well, let's listen to a law expert about it

Those little things really help us out and they help our channel continue to grow. So, listen, Jonathan Turley was on Fox News yesterday after the Supreme Court decision

and he laid it out. He called it a strikingly anti-democratic decision. How could it not be

You've removed the leading Republican candidate from the ballot in a ridiculous move

And he took it a step further. He believes this will be struck down by the Supreme Court. He

believes it has to be struck down by the Supreme Court. And I'll expound upon this in just a

moment. But let's take a look at what he had to say. React, Jonathan Turley, Fox News contributor and law professor at GW University. Jonathan

to think that four unelected state court judges could conceivably end up determining

the presidential election is something I think most Americans are just shaking their

head tonight saying this can't be the United States. No, it is a strikingly anti-democratic holding, in my view. The court literally faced a series

of interpretive barriers to get to where it ended up. It adopted the most sweeping

broadest possible interpretation to get over every one of those hurdles. So throughout this opinion

it had to adopt interpretations that could encompass a wide array of statements. They

used what's called true threat precedent to show that you can view what Trump said

as encouraging an insurrection by looking at stuff that he said at other times. And that

of course, allowed them to reach this conclusion. In my view, the court is dead wrong. This is the

first major win for these challengers. They've gone to a number of blue states. This is one of

the bluest state Supreme Courts you can get to. Even with that, it's split. I think the opinion

is really chilling. And I think that the Supreme Court will make fast work of this theory. I hope

it does. But I think this court, I think, did great damage to its own integrity with this opinion

And there have been other rulings in other state Supreme Courts, correct, or federal courts that

have come to the opposite conclusion here. So this is an outlier, which again, because of what's at

stake, it's going to have to be expedited to the Supreme Court. Yeah. When you read this opinion

the one thing that keeps on recurring in your mind is where's the limiting principle here

Where is the limiting principle here? What would not satisfy this test? In each one of these

barriers, the court could have adopted a fairly moderate or more narrow approach, but it didn't

And so on every one of these issues, it really took out all the fail safes and went to the

broadest possible meaning. Well, that means that states could engage in a tit for tat

type of a series of decisions. You know, you could have red states blocking Biden on some

ballots and blue states blocking Trump. And the way this view is viewed by the public

is really quite horrific. You know, they view President Biden on the ropes and the

ref just called the match. Now, I believe if this is not struck down by the Supreme Court

then you've seen the end of democracy in this country. It's over. It's absolutely over at that

point. There's nothing left to fight for. Do you understand what I'm saying? Nothing left. They've

ended democracy by limiting the choices of the people of Colorado to vote for the president of

their choosing. A bunch of non-elected judges, each one appointed by a Democrat governor

Not one conservative on that court. Are you kidding me? This is absolutely a circus. It's

a kangaroo court. The Supreme Court, I think, will strike it down either eight to one

considering the new justice, or even nine to zero. I want to know what you think about this

but I don't think it's going to be close in the Supreme Court. Let me know in the comments. Also
