I said "standing/authority".  Why did you not use both?


"Because the Constitution makes Congress, rather than the States, responsible for enforcing Section 3 against federal officeholders and candidates, we reverse," the justices wrote.

Supreme Court rules Trump cannot be kicked off Colorado primary ballot (yahoo.com)

The only thing missing is "Hey you dumb ****...you don't have standing/authority to enforce this section."

I addressed both.

No...SCOTUS simply invented the reason. Section 3 wasn't clear on the issue.

In your opinion.  Apparently even the liberal justices felt the Constitution was crystal clear.

It was a 9-0 descision that CO did not have the authority to enforce...meaning the liberals justices felt the same way.  Damn...you are one stupid **** liberal.

The three liberals DID NOT think CO had the jurisdiction/authority..."The majority announces that a disqualification for insurrection can occur only when Congress enacts a particular kind of legislation pursuant to Section 5 of the Fourteenth Amendment," Kagan, Sotomayor and Jackson wrote. "In doing so, the majority shuts the door on other potential means of federal enforcement. 

Aside from Congress, it would take a federal court to decide the matter.  Meaning a state would have to petition the court or a candidate would need to be convicted.  The Judiciary Branch is the only other federal branch that could have authority.

BTW...Section 5 of the Amendment: "The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article."
