Of course, though, the title should have been
Why 2025 Won't Be Like "1984".
Oh, well. (Because both my post, and the Apple Macintosh commercial,
were referring, in the second place, to George Orwell's novel, rather than >the actual year, and because Trump would only take office in 2025,
upon being inaugurated, not after becoming President-Elect.)
I expect the Supremes to kick the can down the road for a while first.
But eventually they will wake up and realize that they really don't
want to be subject to the wrath of Trump II for not affirming his
right to hold office at their first opportunity.

I do suspect that, since there are valid legal reasons for doing so,
the Supreme Court won't allow states to use the insurrection clause
in the 14th Amendment to keep Trump off the ballot.
