TL;DR Summary

Legal expert and former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner discussed on his show "Justice Matters" the improbability of the Supreme Court overturning lower court rulings that former President Donald Trump engaged in insurrection. Kirschner argued that while the Supreme Court might rule on whether Trump can be disqualified from future ballots under the 14th Amendment, they are unlikely to challenge the factual determination of insurrection made by lower courts, as appellate courts typically do not reevaluate facts established during trials. The discussion comes as some states consider removing Trump from the ballot under the Insurrection Clause, with varying decisions across states like Colorado, Maine, California, and Michigan.
