No matter what we think of Donald Trump politically, he must be treated fairly by our justice system. Equal treatment before the law not only means that everyone is held accountable, but also that everyone is innocent until proven guilty. Trump has not been proven guilty of insurrection in a court of law, and a ruling based on nothing but that opinion is stepping onto a very slippery slope.

I’m going to go get an 18y/o immigrant and get them to run for president. Oh, wait. That’s not allowed per the constitution…….. should we see what the courts say?

I applaud the bipartisan consideration...kudos but its MUCH worse than JUST a "slippery slope" its 1) Unethical (disbarment) 2) Violation of oath (impeachment, disbarment ) 3) Violation of his Civil Rights (criminal offense) 4) Damaging to the fabric of America... (I'd vote deportation..but...) @JonathanTurley @VDHanson @JoeConchaTV

The slippery slope is being built before our very eyes. You, Trump and RFK, Jr are already victims of the establishment Democratic Party. If this goes on, more names will be added to this list which bodes very badly for our future.

Thank you. Not guilty and they still ruled. Have we all never read the 14th? Section 5 "The Congress shall have the power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article." It's Federal law not State law.

Yes actually the Colorado court decided he committed insurrection

So you all are whining about Republicans not helping the J6 domestic terrorists.. As far as I know it is Trump himself who put them where they are. He is the one who pushed them to “protest”, to “fight against the steal” Where is he ? Has he provided legal help ? Has he helped families ? Has he talked in their favor ? I dont remember him saying anything about them in his campaign. I heard him bragging about his properties worth billions, I heard him promising to seek revenge against his opponents I heard him basically threatening everyone I have not heard him promising to take care of his followers and ACTUALLY DOING IT Blame Trump. He is the one who put those people in jail by tricking them
