RUSH TRANSCRIPT The Trump ░░░░░░░░ to the U S ░░░░░░░░ Court 34 pages I ░░░░░░░░ gone through it myself ░░░░░░░░ stay with us We ░░░░░░░░ also joined by CNN ░░░░░░░░ Kaitlan Collins You helped ░░░░░░░░ this story for us ░░░░░░░░ at CNN Walk us ░░░░░░░░ what the Trump team ░░░░░░░░ thinking is all about ░░░░░░░░ now To appeal this ░░░░░░░░ I mean it was ░░░░░░░░ explosive ruling from the ░░░░░░░░ Supreme Court saying that ░░░░░░░░ was ineligible to be ░░░░░░░░ the ballot They have ░░░░░░░░ working on this appeal ░░░░░░░░ quite some time They ░░░░░░░░ coming right up until ░░░░░░░░ they believe the dead ░░░░░░░░ was tomorrow to actually ░░░░░░░░ this The other part ░░░░░░░░ this is that in ░░░░░░░░ middle of writing this ░░░░░░░░ they were hit with ░░░░░░░░ Maine ruling from the ░░░░░░░░ of state there not ░░░░░░░░ the Supreme Court there ░░░░░░░░ it was in Colorado ░░░░░░░░ instead from the secretary ░░░░░░░░ state but they have ░░░░░░░░ brase basically working on ░░░░░░░░ of those issuesance and ░░░░░░░░ know this is popping ░░░░░░░░ everywhere to Evan s ░░░░░░░░ they are basically attack ░░░░░░░░ single front of this ░░░░░░░░ from the Colorado Supreme ░░░░░░░░ saying that January of ░░░░░░░░ not an insurrection that ░░░░░░░░ didn t engage in ░░░░░░░░ if it was that ░░░░░░░░ 3 doesn t apply ░░░░░░░░ him because the presidency ░░░░░░░░ technically not an office ░░░░░░░░ the United States so ░░░░░░░░ are making some arguments ░░░░░░░░ The questions of course ░░░░░░░░ the Supreme Court get ░░░░░░░░ because what this does ░░░░░░░░ only puts more pressure ░░░░░░░░ them to do so ░░░░░░░░ there could be a ░░░░░░░░ decision here so there ░░░░░░░░ t end up to ░░░░░░░░ some states decide he ░░░░░░░░ be on the ballot ░░░░░░░░ some can which I ░░░░░░░░ earn could agree would ░░░░░░░░ chaos This case right ░░░░░░░░ how likely is it ░░░░░░░░ the Supreme Court will ░░░░░░░░ this on Way or ░░░░░░░░ this Supreme Court will ░░░░░░░░ to resolve this They ░░░░░░░░ do it quickly They ░░░░░░░░ not do it quickly ░░░░░░░░ by filing this petition ░░░░░░░░ the Supreme Court under ░░░░░░░░ terms of the Colorado ░░░░░░░░ wolf Trump has stayed ░░░░░░░░ Colorado proceedings so at ░░░░░░░░ moment he remains on ░░░░░░░░ ballot The Supreme Court ░░░░░░░░ have to speak to ░░░░░░░░ and this is one ░░░░░░░░ those historic moments really ░░░░░░░░ the history our country ░░░░░░░░ you have a very ░░░░░░░░ sensical reading that the ░░░░░░░░ Supreme Court has adopted ░░░░░░░░ the 14th Amendment that ░░░░░░░░ Trump through his 187 ░░░░░░░░ of inaction the January ░░░░░░░░ report his tweet targeting ░░░░░░░░ Pence in the midst ░░░░░░░░ the violence that he ░░░░░░░░ participate in an insurrection ░░░░░░░░ then it meets the ░░░░░░░░ of how the Supreme ░░░░░░░░ reads that constitution This ░░░░░░░░ going to be a ░░░░░░░░ fight for the petitioners ░░░░░░░░ win but nobody knows ░░░░░░░░ the Supreme Court do ░░░░░░░░ Rogers is with us ░░░░░░░░ Supreme Court as we ░░░░░░░░ know is designed to ░░░░░░░░ these constitutional questions that ░░░░░░░░ come up How do ░░░░░░░░ think they would weigh ░░░░░░░░ issue if they do ░░░░░░░░ up this case That ░░░░░░░░ a great question wolf ░░░░░░░░ mean this is the ░░░░░░░░ S Constitution We re ░░░░░░░░ about the U S ░░░░░░░░ Court that has the ░░░░░░░░ word on what it ░░░░░░░░ is and they have ░░░░░░░░ spoken on this before ░░░░░░░░ you know it s ░░░░░░░░ s guess what they ░░░░░░░░ except I think it ░░░░░░░░ fair to say or ░░░░░░░░ least I think despite ░░░░░░░░ looks like a very ░░░░░░░░ opinion from the Colorado ░░░░░░░░ Court and a lot ░░░░░░░░ strong arguments saying that ░░░░░░░░ should be disqualified from ░░░░░░░░ ballot under the plain ░░░░░░░░ of the provision I ░░░░░░░░ that the Supreme Court ░░░░░░░░ going to find a ░░░░░░░░ to say he stays ░░░░░░░░ the ballot It could ░░░░░░░░ any of the reasons ░░░░░░░░ kaitlan mentioned the arguments ░░░░░░░░ he makes the heel ░░░░░░░░ factual ones but I ░░░░░░░░ that they are going ░░░░░░░░ try to find a ░░░░░░░░ to say that it ░░░░░░░░ t apply to him ░░░░░░░░ I think that they ░░░░░░░░ try to do that ░░░░░░░░ as close to a ░░░░░░░░ court as they can ░░░░░░░░ the court is always ░░░░░░░░ these days concerned with ░░░░░░░░ own reputation and legitimacy ░░░░░░░░ way or another as ░░░░░░░░ as the Colorado case ░░░░░░░░ concerned it will have ░░░░░░░░ impact across the country ░░░░░░░░ other states are considering ░░░░░░░░ Kraltan was just talking ░░░░░░░░ kaitlan was finding that ░░░░░░░░ courts will find on ░░░░░░░░ grounds that he needs ░░░░░░░░ be disqualified the court ░░░░░░░░ speak on as many ░░░░░░░░ those possibility as they ░░░░░░░░ Lawyers said this Let ░░░░░░░░ read the argument The ░░░░░░░░ Supreme Court decision would ░░░░░░░░ constitutionally disenfranchise millions of ░░░░░░░░ in Colorado and likely ░░░░░░░░ used as a template ░░░░░░░░ disenfranchise tens of millions ░░░░░░░░ voters nationwide so how ░░░░░░░░ this play into the ░░░░░░░░ battle that s going ░░░░░░░░ right now of whether ░░░░░░░░ not Trump should be ░░░░░░░░ on these ballots in ░░░░░░░░ snats At outset of ░░░░░░░░ didn t give much ░░░░░░░░ for these things to ░░░░░░░░ forward There s been ░░░░░░░░ than 80 lawsuits the ░░░░░░░░ team points out of ░░░░░░░░ nature around the cup ░░░░░░░░ and most of these ░░░░░░░░ like fallen away and ░░░░░░░░ not gone as far ░░░░░░░░ the fact that we ░░░░░░░░ even sheer kind of ░░░░░░░░ but what I find ░░░░░░░░ in the argument that ░░░░░░░░ just read and that ░░░░░░░░ just the part of ░░░░░░░░ argument that you just ░░░░░░░░ is you know one ░░░░░░░░ the things that the ░░░░░░░░ president is accused of ░░░░░░░░ back you know on ░░░░░░░░ 6 and the events ░░░░░░░░ January 6 was to ░░░░░░░░ all of these voters ░░░░░░░░ of voters in various ░░░░░░░░ because he didn t ░░░░░░░░ the results in those ░░░░░░░░ and now he s ░░░░░░░░ that very same argument ░░░░░░░░ saying that what you ░░░░░░░░ trying do is disenfranchise ░░░░░░░░ of these voters around ░░░░░░░░ country It s a ░░░░░░░░ argument because under our ░░░░░░░░ voters are the one ░░░░░░░░ are supposed to decide ░░░░░░░░ the idea that you ░░░░░░░░ a lot of these ░░░░░░░░ who were on the ░░░░░░░░ side of the argument ░░░░░░░░ now decided to to ░░░░░░░░ to bring these lawsuits ░░░░░░░░ try to prevent him ░░░░░░░░ being on the ballot ░░░░░░░░ kind of a remarkable ░░░░░░░░ I understand that you ░░░░░░░░ getting new information Our ░░░░░░░░ Kristen Holmes has confirmed ░░░░░░░░ Trump is expected to ░░░░░░░░ the federal appeals court ░░░░░░░░ next woke and that ░░░░░░░░ around his claim that ░░░░░░░░ has presidential immunity when ░░░░░░░░ comes to the federal ░░░░░░░░ case here in Washington ░░░░░░░░ Jack Smith is prosecuting ░░░░░░░░ Trump has opinion arguing ░░░░░░░░ he can t be ░░░░░░░░ for something that happened ░░░░░░░░ he was president That ░░░░░░░░ something that is being ░░░░░░░░ He s personally going ░░░░░░░░ be attending those hearings ░░░░░░░░ to what we re ░░░░░░░░ next week in person ░░░░░░░░ s not the first ░░░░░░░░ he s been in ░░░░░░░░ He was obviously in ░░░░░░░░ in the civil case ░░░░░░░░ New York a lot ░░░░░░░░ think it speaks to ░░░░░░░░ fact that we are ░░░░░░░░ the Iowa caucuses and ░░░░░░░░ we ll be in ░░░░░░░░ middle of the Iowa ░░░░░░░░ dates of Iowa New ░░░░░░░░ all of this he ░░░░░░░░ still going to court ░░░░░░░░ has all of these ░░░░░░░░ dates coming up He ░░░░░░░░ going to be in ░░░░░░░░ at those hearings next ░░░░░░░░ It also speaks to ░░░░░░░░ the Supreme Court could ░░░░░░░░ deal with pause they ░░░░░░░░ not just be dealing ░░░░░░░░ the Colorado issue should ░░░░░░░░ does that take it ░░░░░░░░ They could be hearing ░░░░░░░░ his claims of presidential ░░░░░░░░ They have got a ░░░░░░░░ that they could be ░░░░░░░░ that could real affect ░░░░░░░░ shape 20924 election He ░░░░░░░░ to use the court ░░░░░░░░ to try to talk ░░░░░░░░ the cameras and in ░░░░░░░░ case turn them into ░░░░░░░░ appearances Very important point ░░░░░░░░ important note.
