    And a court judgment is not a bill. Ruling about a specific individual’s case is precisely what courts are for. By your logic, every court ruling against a defendant would be a bill of attainder.

    As for an ex post facto law, that’s a law that’s passed after the conduct it makes illegal, to be applied retroactively. The 14th amendment is over 100 years old.

      I was specifically referring to Alto’s suggestion that the Colorado legislature could pass a law that says their electors can’t vote for Trump.
