We start today with our Law And Justice lead and former President Donald Trump celebrating today a massive victory at the us Supreme Court. All nine justices unanimously agreed to reverse the decision by the colorado Supreme Court the nine justices today allowed trump to be on the ballot in colorado late last year, as you might recall, the colorado Supreme Court removed trump from the ballot. They found that because trump engaged in an insurrection on and around january 6, he was banned from holding federal office under the Us Constitutions 14th amendment but in addition to disagreeing with that decision today five of the conservative justices and majority of the high court, they went even further. They wrote that no state can kick any federal candidate off a ballot. Insurrection be one thing that us Supreme Court did not address today is whether or not trumps actions on and around you january 6 amounted to an insurrection in response to todays ruling. The top Election Official in maine, formerly restored trumps spot on that states ballot. After trump had been previously removed under her powers, she invoked the same 14th amendment concerns all of this coming literally just hours ahead of the biggest de in the 2024 president ial race so far tomorrow 16 states, including colorado and maine, as well as one territory, head to the polls for Super Tuesday and could, and likely will put trump even closer. To clenching the republican president ial nomination. What does all of this mean for trumps only republican challenger left in the race while former governor nikki haley is here to respond. But first, cnns paula reid starts off our coverage from the us Supreme Court with a closer look at how this decision could affect not just this election, but others moving forward very much. Former President Trump today claims the Supreme Court has unified the country by securing his place on the 2024 ballot. There voters can take the person out of the race very quickly. But a court shouldnt be doing that. And the Supreme Court, so that very well. And i really do believe that well, be a unifying factor in a unanimous opinion monday, the court ruled that colorado could not remove trump from the ballot under the constitutions ban on insurrectionists serving in Office States may disqualify persons holding or attempting to hold state office, but states have no power under the constitution to enforce Section Three with respect to federal offices especially the presidency, the justices warned that allowing states to each make different decisions about Ballot Eligibility the would result in a patchwork creating chaos around elections. The victory for trump was expected after february Oral Arguments where justices from both sides of the aisle up skeptical of colorados case. I think that the question that you have to confront is why a single state should decide hi, and who gets to be president of the United States . And the chief justice, john roberts, signaled where he would ultimately find consensus across the court. The whole point of the 14th amendment was to restrict state power while they decision was 90 and applies to all 50 states. There was some tension below the surface with four justices writing Concurring Opinions. The three liberals saying their colleagues went too far by finding only congress can enforce the 14th amendment justice barrett, a trump appointee, agreed, but didnt sign on to the liberal justices language. Instead highlighting unity on the court for present purposes are differences are far less important than our unanimity. All nine justices agreed on the outcome of this case. That is the message american should take home. Colorados secretary of state said the fight against trump wont end at the steps of the high Court Whether trump is disqualified, qualified, whether hes on ballots across the United States or not. Americans will be able to save our democracy at the ballot box in november and in just under two months, we will be back here at the Supreme Court as they take up a another Big Trump Related Case that could have an impact on the election, of course of that case, asks whether former President Trump has immunity that would shield him from the federal election subversion case. You saw here jk, the court came back with an answer just hours before Super Tuesday, and then that next case timing also critical because the longer it takes them to decide that case, the less likely it is that trump will face a federal Criminal Trial before november all right. Paula reid at the us Supreme Court. Thanks so much joining us now, Donald Trumps opponent, nikki haley, the first woman in the history of the United States of america to ever win any republican president ial primary Governor Haley congratulations on that milestone. Your win here in washington dc. Well discuss that in a moment, but first i do want to get your reaction todays ruling from the court you noted today that you agree with the Supreme Courts unanimous decision saying ballot decision should not be up to state officials. The Supreme Court now says the only way to enforce Section Three of the 14th amendment, the ban on insurrectionists is for congress to pass federal legislation the four justices who disagree with the majority say that their colleague shouldnt have shut down any other way to enforce it, that that shouldnt have been the ruling. What do you think . Did you think the majority went too far on that particular front . Well, im not a lawyer, so im not going to speak on that, but i will tell you, i think the best way is just for the people to decide at the ballot box, we dont want the chaos of certain states are secretaries of state saying that they like someone or dont like someone. Im want to take them off the ballot. I trust the American People. I think at the end of the day, they will decide who they want to lead this country. And i think we should let it happen that way. So i was very happy with the Supreme Court ruling. Look, im going to im trying to defeat donald trump. Fair and square. I dont need them taking him off the ballot to do it. I think were trying to share enough that this is chaos that we want to get back to an america thats normal and that we need a new Generational Leader and thats the way were going to continue pushing forward, right . The colorado Supreme Court, of course, wasnt saying however partisan people might have thought that decision was their official explanation was not they didnt like donald trump. They they said he participated in an erection and i have to an insurrection. Sorry insurrection. And i have to say i got up at five this morning to do kasie hunt show and im exhausted. So when trump was impeached for the insurrection, most republicans in Congress Said no, no, no, this is not for congress to decide. This is for courts but now the colorado Supreme Court weighs in, and the us Supreme Court says, no, no, no, this is for congress. So i guess what do you say to the people out there who wonder, is the 14th amendment even supposed to be taken seriously . Again, thats for lawyers to decide. I think that, the Supreme Court wasnt there to decide whether it was an insurrection or not. They were there to decide whether someone could be taken off the ballot like that . I think that they made the right decision when they said let the people decide and let it go from there, i think that was right. Would you theoretically support federal legislation that would ensure that anyone who engages in insurrection or rebellion is barred from future Public Office the problem with that is anything from congress is going to be political. So i would much rather trust the people to decide what they want to do. Then a congress who is going to play political football. I mean, weve seen a congress that basically theyre playing football left and right. Theyre not getting any policy work done so the less politics we can keep out, and the more policy we can encourage them to engage. And thats what i want to do. Look the American People. They know that were 34 trillion in debt. They feel it when they go to the grocery store, they feel it when they pay their utility bills, they know that only 31 of eighth graders in our country are proficient in reading. They see an open border thats adequate control. They see wars breaking out Around The World. They want to know that something is going to get done. And i think all weve seen Coming Out Of Dc is a political football left and right. What i want to see is why cant they just give us a budget on time . Theyve only given us a budget on time four times 40 years. Theres a lot of Things Congress needs to work on. I dont want them having one more political football because right now theyre not getting anything done for us. So yesterday you became the very first woman in American History to ever win a republican president president ial primary with a victory in dc. This was widely seen as your best chance to win a primary. Donald trump has won every other primary and caucus thus far, including in your home state of south carolina, and some thinking he could easily win more than 90 of the delegates available tomorrow. On Super Tuesday tuesday, are there any states you expect to win tomorrow . Are there any states that youre particularly competitive in . And how many will you need to justify staying in the race . Well, weve said as long as were competitive, we have been intense states just in the past week, i just finished a rally here in houston, texas. We had well over 1,000 people show up. And these are people this isnt an antitrump movement. This is a proamerica movement this is something where theyre saying theyre tired of the chaos. They dont want to candidates in their 80s, they want to make sure that we go back to normal and they want to see a dc that works for the people instead of government, instead of people working for government. And so weve got people who are passionate. Theyre excited, they want to go and get america back to where they can be proud again. And so were going to do as much as we can. I want to be as competitive as we can. We certainly have numbers that were hoping for, but well see what happens tomorrow. But until then, i continue to remind everyone in those 16 states and territories and a general election were given a choice in a primary, we make our choice. And so i hope everybody will go out and make their choice tomorrow. You said there are expectations youre hoping to meet. Can you share with us what those are you have said that you previously that youre definitely staying in the race through Super Tuesday. Thats tomorrow. What would keep you in the race as long as were competitive, look 70 of americans say they dont want donald trump or joe biden. Thats not a small number, jake, you look at in the early states, he didnt get 40 of the vote in michigan. He campaigned for eight years. I keep paid for two days and got 30 of them the vote. What this comes down to his people are worried about the fiscal cliff that were going on. I mean, theyre worried about the Younger Generation who sees the 34 trillion in debt and they know theyre going to have to be responsible. Theyre worried about the fact that young generation went through covid. Theyre feeling a lot already. Theyre worried about getting a job. Theyre worried about making ends meet. They dont think theyre ever going to be able to florida home. And they see these wars Around The World and they want to know that at some point were going to have somebody that can put an eight years day and night and focus on the solutions, not the negativity, not the baggage, but just Real Solutions for the American People. And you look at joe biden, you look at donald trump. Theyre completely, completely caught up in their own worlds. Theyre completely caught up in how this affects them. This isnt about either man. This is about the American People and theyve been ignored for long enough. And i think they want to say things done right. Im in texas and theyre screaming about whats happening on the border. Yeah, its unacceptable. This is the United States of america, and that would be happening so i want to ask you because this weekend at a rally in richmond, virginia, donald trump called for the elimination of Vaccine Mandates for Public Schools. Take a listen and i will not give one penny to any school that has a Vaccine Mandate or a bass now its not the first time he said this and he is not specified whether hes referring to covid vaccines or all vaccines. And as you know, most states require chickenpox vaccines, polio i mean, on and on and on, not giving any money to Public Schools that require vaccines. Say this would result in a Public Health catastrophe. Whats your reaction . Do you think trump would really withhold millions in funding from Public Schools that require measles, shots well, i think hes having to say that because during covid, he basically allowed our country to shut down. He allowed our schools to shut down. He went and required and came up with these vaccines and mandated everybody to do it. So now hes trying to walk it back anyway that he knows house, so he throws this Talking Point out there to try and think that people might forget. But the reality is this all started under his watch, not anybody elses. And you look at all that happened during covid and the way people suffered during that. Its because of the decisions that he made. Its because of the fact that they were people were saying two different things. And so no one trusts said what information they were being given. All hes doing is trying to cover himself on this. Hes the one that started all of that with the covid vaccines. Im sure that were going to keep the basic vaccines that have always been there. Ive always said that parents need to be a part of the decision when it comes to vaccines but i would just say this is another red meat item that Donald Trumps throwing out there that he probably wont follow up with. All right. Nikki haley. Thanks so much. Have fun out there on the campaign trail. My next guest wrote to the us Supreme Court urging the justices to disqualify trump from 2024 ballots under the 15th amendment. Fourth, sorry, 14th amendment grounds.
