'Trump engaged in insurrection': Former GOP AG sides with Colorado court

Appearing on CNN on Thursday morning, former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales was asked about the Colorado Supreme Court ruling Donald Trump should not appear on the 20204 ballot and replied that he agreed with it.

Speaking with host Erica Hill, the attorney who served under President George W. Bush said he'd rather go to court using the case presented by the court than the defense offered by Trump's legal team.

Asked why he leans toward the Colorado ruling, he explained that he feels there is ample evidence Trump helped to incite the Jan. 6 insurrection.

"I think on the merits, yes, one consideration, one argument will be the due process one, but putting that aside, which is not insignificant, I think it's fairly clear to me that former president Trump engaged in insurrection," he stated.

"The language of the Constitution is engaged in insurrection, and I think he meets that standard based on the findings of the trial court judge in Colorado based on the excellent work of the January 6th Congressional committee," he continued. "I think, in my mind, that threshold has been met."

"This is a difficult position for the court," he elaborated. "I think the chief [Justice John Roberts] is already wrestling with concerns about the politics, the way that the public more and more views the court as a political institution. Whatever the outcome is here ... those views will simply be amplified. So it's an interesting conundrum. I don't envy the chief, and other members of the court, quite frankly, so we will have to wait and see. It's a difficult issue."

Unlikely ally backs Trump in Colorado ballot fight: 'Potential for abuse is ample'

Donald Trump has found an unlikely ally in his fight not to be removed from Colorado's election ballot — the moderately liberal editorial board of the Washington Post.

The editors, in a column published last Wednesday, listed reasons why the ruling that the former president can’t stand for public office because he took part in an insurrection is deeply flawed — largely because he has not been convicted or even arrested on charges relating to it.

SCOTUS justice appointed by Trump has already argued ex-presidents can be jailed

Former President Donald Trump is hoping that the United States Supreme Court, which features three justices he appointed, will rescue him from criminal charges by buying his argument that what he's accused of were official acts by a president of the United States, and thus immune from prosecution.

However, Paul Rosenzweig, the deputy assistant secretary for policy at DHS during the George W. Bush administration, writes in The Bulwark that Trump could wind up disappointed with at least one of his own justices.
