'Trump muck' will prompt Supreme Court to speed up D.C. trial: conservative George Conway

The Supreme Court appears to want off the "Trump muck" election-bound highway.

Conservative attorney George Conway's appearance on MSNBC had him putting on a cartographer's hat and navigating where the nine justices sitting on the highest bench of the land aim to go, and it's far away from tipping the scales of the 2024 presidential election.

"I think what's going on here, and I think it was seriously reflected in the argument the other day is they don't want to be on this election-bound highway. They don't want anything to do with affecting the outcome of the 2024 race or even appearing to and they want to get out of this business and they want to get out of the controversy," he said.

Conway is basing this conclusion on the way justices engaged with lawyers arguing for and against the disqualification of former President Donald Trump from the 2024 contest.

Colorado's Supreme Court ruled Trump violated the 14th Amendment and engaged in an insurrection as an officer of the United States where he stands criminally accused of baiting the crowd to head to the Capitol and stop the certification of the election results.

But Conway believes the thinking of the court is to get out of the candidate Trump business altogether to prevent the court's reputation from being tarnished.

"They have a lot of things on their plates," Conway noted. "And they're all concerned — not just Chief Justice Roberts but the people and both sides, both wings of the Court are concerned about the institutional standing of the Court."

Conway raved about the three-judge panel's decision to deny Trump's claim that he possesses absolute immunity from committing any crimes and that the likelihood is the Supreme Court won't bother to hear the case.

So for him, the D.C. Court of Appeals made the immunity matter moot, and took the ball and went home. Game over.

"That impetus would be compounded by the fact that the opinion is so good," he said. "They don't really have anything to add here, so why risk any institutional criticism? Why waste the time and effort of the Court to get into this when it's already been solved by the D.C. Circuit, particularly when Donald Trump can get another crack at the Supreme Court after he is, as I believe he will, be convicted and sentenced."
