Melissa Murray: 本案的最终结论允许各州取消总统候选人的资格，这本身就非常复杂，但法院的推理过程却非常糟糕。法院的行为缺乏原则性，但我们仍然应该对其进行更高标准的评判，因为法院的判决会影响到美国民主的未来。 Kate Shaw: 最高法院的判决推理过程很糟糕，因为它揭示了法院的真实动机。法院试图将第十四修正案第3节从宪法中删除，并限制国会取消叛乱者资格的权力。 Leah Lippman: 最高法院裁定科罗拉多州及其他州不能根据第十四修正案第3节取消特朗普的参选资格，虽然表面上是9-0一致通过，但推理过程实质上是5-4。法院认为，取消叛乱者资格的权力只属于国会，而且国会取消叛乱者资格的方式也受到很大限制。法院的判决可能会影响国会决定其成员资格的长期做法，即使国会通过立法，法院也可能认为该立法不足以补救。
