One CAN safely say that if Colrado CAN stop Donald Trump from being it’s state ballots for action that see as related to the ‘insurrection’ clause in the Constitution?
Other state’s will quickly follow locking the ex-President from ever getting his old ONLY federal job again…
Donald Trump DID want the 2020 final election results disregarded….Force was attempted ….
This week’s ruling by the Colorado Supreme Court declaring Donald Trump ineligible to be president again is reverberating around the country, prompting challengers in other blue states to try to fast-track similar efforts to remove the former president from their 2024 ballots.
In a 4-3 decision Tuesday, the Colorado court ruled that Trump is disqualified by the Constitution from serving as president again because he stoked an insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021.
While the case appears destined for the U.S. Supreme Court, in the meantime it is being cited by voters and politicians in a variety of states who are seeking to use the 14th Amendment’s insurrection clause to kick Trump off the ballot. That clause states that anyone who “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” after taking an oath of office to support the Constitution is forbidden from holding any public office.
Proponents of the 14th Amendment argument are harnessing the Colorado ruling in two ways. In some states, voters and advocates are hoping it strengthens existing court challenges. In others, Democrats are citing it to bolster efforts to ban Trump from the ballot by amending state election law or through unilateral action by state officials….

Rove: I think the former president has a problem with this. They had voted to certify the election, he attempted to force them to change their decision, which they tried to do, I think this is what we would call election interference.
Predictably, Republicans in red states are moving to disqualify Biden from their ballots.
Hopefully,the Supreme Court will quickly overturn the Colorado ruling and we can get back to reality .
Until a jury finds Trump guilty of fomenting an insurrection , this type thing is not going to stand.
I don’t take the Biden 14th thing as serious by GOPer’s….
He didn’t rally people to try and steal and election….
Besides?
People in those state’s might be to busy voting to allow abortions up to 15 weeks instead….
Same GOPer’s still talking about impeaching Biden for NOTHING…..
