Do Liberals Think the Supreme Court Will Save Us From Trump?

David Gergen : Critics want to use lawsuits to disqualify Trump from state ballots before next year's elections.

He says it sounds a lot like One Neat Trick that could get rid of Trump once and for all, but boosterism has bordered on naïve and disingenuous.

The underlying legal question is whether the 14th Amendment of the Constitution disqualifies Trump from being president again, Gergen says.

Frida Ghitis: If you hold the Supreme Court in low regard, you have already stopped counting on them to do the “right” thing.

Until last year , the Court ’s decisions had established a right to abortion in this country, had repeatedly upheld the use of affirmative action in higher education, and had made clear that businesses open to the public cannot discriminate against members of protected classes, including same-sex couples.

Ghitis says it would be unwise to assume that it will actually sway votes among the conservative justices.
