How #SCOTUS May Rule on #Trump’s Presidential Run

The #SupremeCourt may soon have to confront a consequential & potentially bruising case. Chief #Justice #JohnRoberts Jr. will doubtless seek consensus

The #legal issues are novel & tangled, experts said, & the justices may be wary of knocking a leading presidential candidate off the #ballot.

@Nonilex but the justices aren't being asked to knock anyone off the ballot.

They're a court of appeals, not the original court in these cases, and that's a hugely important distinction in the US legal process.
