Remember that the Supreme Court’s decision did not do what Donald Trump had asked: clear him of insurrection. The Colorado court found that he so was, and Trump had an entire section of his SCOTUS brief arguing he was peaceful on . The Court didn’t do what he asked; it did not clear him. And the act’s decision leaves space for his criminal trial about to proceed, should the Court dispose of the other Trump immunity case quickly in the Spring (as it can and must). The Court took 25 days to render this decision. Anything longer in the immunity case would be deeply inconsistent with what it did here.

The Colorado court opinion has extensive findings on this, weighing the testimony of Trump defenders like Kash Patel & concluding Trump was an insurrectionist.

None of those findings was disturbed by SCOTUS today, despite Trump’s request that the do so.
