David Rutherford Show: David Clements Breaks Down the 2026 SCOTUS Election Rulings
About this episode
David Rutherford and guest David Clements discuss the implications of recent Supreme Court rulings on presidential election powers.
Professor David Clements returns to make his case that a handful of 2026 Supreme Court decisions have reshaped what a president can do on elections without waiting for Congress. David and Clements break down three rulings — the mail-in ballot deadline case, the Slaughter decision on presidential removal power, and the birthright citizenship ruling — and Clements lays out his argument for how each one connects to executive authority under Article II. You'll hear his read on the Youngstown war-powers framework, the Election Assistance Commission, and why he believes the legal terrain has shifted. Professor David Clements is a former law professor and election-integrity advocate featured in the documentary [S]election Code .
