the ruling is not surprising, what is surprising is that it was a unanimous ruling. I never would have expected in a billion years that Sotomayor would have ruled in favor of Trump.
Only the part that states can't remove a candidate over "insurrection" was unanimous.
Amy Barrett thinks going beyond what states can do would make politics too hot (what a wuss).
Sotomayor, Kagan, Katanji say that the Federal Government can still remove Trump from ballots if it wants to without any new legislation (only states can't do it). Hoping that Merrick Garland will save them from the bad man.
They don’t want red state to start doing to same for a planted candidate (like Joe and Kamala.) They can hide behind state representation if they can ban it on a Federal level.
The "always side with leftists" judges are okay with it because they know the largest voter fraud organization ever assembled will continue to do their job. Removing Trump from ballots therefore would prevent the opportunity to humiliate him again in a rigged contest.
Also, they have to keep the false choice political dichotomy going for as long as possible. If the people get too uppity, it will crumble the house of cards.
The justices think he'll "lose" anyway (or be removed through some other legal action) so what's the harm in letting him play for now. This makes them look fair.

She very well might

The more obvious the "fortification" gets, the more likely people are to start getting uppity about it.

I'm more surprised KBJ ruled in favor of Trump
If you read the opinion, the commies bitched about it still being too far for the case before scotus.
