Trump's Iowa speech was 113 minutes long on the anniversary of the attack on the Capitol. Trump made one superficial remark about it. He said that he thought no one expected it to happen, seemingly using that claim as an excuse for his inaction and making it sound like his being impeached for it was unjustified. Trump had about three hours to stop the assault that clearly he knew was happening. He chose to do nothing significant to stop it during that time. He said recently during an interview that he will finally say what he did during those hours at an appropriate time.

If the Supreme Court wants to apply some sort of federal protection to Trump to make him qualified to run in spite of his insurrection, it needs to reconcile such a stance with its other decisions that relegated power to the states to deal with national issue on their own. The Supreme Court will decide if Donald Trump can be kept off 2024 presidential ballots excerpt: "At the same time, Justices Amy Coney Barrett, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh have been in the majority of conservative-driven decisions that overturned the five-decade-old constitutional right to abortion, expanded gun rights and struck down affirmative action in college admissions."
