Colorado, Maine vs Trump

Colorado Supreme Court disqualifies Trump from state ballot - UPDATE - Trump back on Colorado ballot

Now Maine disqualifies Trump

“The Colorado Supreme Court issued a completely flawed decision tonight and we will swiftly file an appeal to the United States Supreme Court and a concurrent request for a stay of this deeply undemocratic decision. We have full confidence that the U.S. Supreme Court will quickly rule in our favor and finally put an end to these unAmerican lawsuits,” he added.“

So, tell me the difference between Zelensky halting presidential elections in the ukraine, Putin always winning re-election, the PRP party in Mexico always winning 99% of elections, Maduro in Venezuela always winning, Winnie the Pooh in Chyna winning a third term, and the absolute nonsense going on in the US of A in Colorado and Georgia against Trump. Oh, yea, none. What a pathetic political sham this country has become. Or, most likely, it has always been a chit-show and Trumps victory was a fluke that the dems/ ‘deep state’ thought would never happen and did not cheat or manipulate votes as much as they did in the past.

Until and unless SCOTUS knocks it down, Colorado is only the first state this will occur in. I warned about this in another thread.

Now, let’s say Trump is indeed found guilty of a felony in one of these kangaroo courts with their kangaroo (being nice) jurors…then what? SCOTUS will need to hear it again as I assume they will only be ruling on this current one in light of the fact that he has not been convicted of anything yet. But if he is convicted down the road, the appeal to SCOTUS process starts anew. If it is too close to the general to adapt then Republicans could be screwed.

When was the ‘insurrection’? And when are these cases coming….

Keeping someone from running for POTUS with out a conviction…

^^^This. The ComDems only need to pull this off in a couple or three swing states and the Repube nominee has absolutely no path to 270.

Has Trump been convicted yet?

14th Amendment only applies to convicted doesn’t it?

I’m pretty T’d off on this but Trump really needs to get out of the way and deal with his “legal” problems before he splits the vote! Mark my words his ego will inflate to proportions yet seen and brandon or any other clown they wheel out will win with 1/3 of the votes.

If I’m a dnc advisor I’d let the GOP continue to melt down from within. If you haven’t noticed at least 40% of USA HATES Trump with a passion! They do not care about facts and would vote for Hitler before Trump. Those are votes the GOP will NEVER see with Trump. Ya know how hard it is to win an election when the other guy already has 40% of votes no matter what? Add in a sprinkle of election fraud and welcome to brandon part 2 without spending a dime; without one debate! Literally has to sway ~5% of swing votes and believe me at least 5% are tired of the Trump drama! And that’s without an effort!

Along the way he’s tearing down all the other GOP candidates. Dems just need to sit back no matter what the polls say and watch GOP implode. The election is the GOP’s to lose and the only way they lose is if Trump stays at this! He’ll be brandon’s age in 4 years so…do we really need 80 year old farts representing us?

A few of us have been saying this for a while. DJT was the man we needed in 2016/2020 but now he needs to be a kingmaker not a king.

Oh now you’ve done it…

Though not a Trump fan, I think this type of crap is reminiscent of Third World banana republics where you trump up [pun intended] charges against political adversaries. Total bullshit, and I only hope we can turn the tables on those bastards down the road. At that hopeful point in time all the Moral High Roaders and their “We’re better than that, we can’t lower ourselves to their level” tripe can FOAD.

Correct, and those cocksuckers know it too. :mad:

I really REALLY despise the Left. It’s hard to put into words. They are the antithesis of what I believe in and I cannot consider them “fellow Americans”…I consider them treasonous scum.

Yes and yes.

Having said that, this legal BS is just that, a bunch of created horseshit that now has dragged part of our Judicial Branch into the fray----where it absolutely has no business being unless legitimate (which it isn’t).

Totally agree but the stakes are too high right now and it’s getting late in the game.

Even if Trump wins we all witnessed to poop show last time. He’ll spend more time swatting flies than doing what we’d elect him for. I’m worn out from that still!

Make a deal with whoever can be GOP candidate to expose dnc crapolla and get the country back on its feet. Win congress and it will get REAL!

Our problems are bigger than a 1 term president. We need a good 8 year run to set thing on track again.

…and no-one here is actually focused on the real issue. How in the hell does a State “Supreme Court” reach such an obviously flawed decision?

Must be some pretty good blackmail involved that even a little investigative journalism could uncover.

The Banana Republic continues.

Don’t make general assumptions just because some might not worship the Orange God. I clearly said I thought it was bullshit and a dangerous precedent. What more do you want? I hate the Left, and want the opposite of whatever they want.

Agreed, I think Trump is a retard but this is pure Democrat Banana Republic insanity.

My understanding is that the ruling is stayed until 4 Jan, and the stay will remain if Trump appeals it to SCOTUS. So I think he stays on the primary ballot.

By this line of thinking and since Biden is now under proceeding to begin his impeachment, what happens if Oklahoma says no to Biden on the ballot?
You see where this is going right?
Go ahead and start a Civil War?

Attempting to interfere with the people voting for the lead candidate by removing his name from the ballot is the definition of ‘threat to democracy’.

I’m not saying I agree with the theory, but there are some who believe we’ve crossed the line where one is inevitable. While I fervently pray they’re wrong I can see why they say that, and can understand why some might lean to an “if it MUST happen let’s get it over with” line of thinking.

Jesus Himself couldn’t get CO’s EV’s on the R ticket, so it’s more about flipping off the voters than actual effect aside from the Propaganda War.

But yes, if they insist on doing this start DQ’ing D’s in return, make clear that it’s a Time For Choosing.

Even more relevant today than when spoken six decades ago…

It’s just amazing how tone deaf. The left is when it comes to this stuff. Do you think the adults on our side of the table would be understanding that this is worse than anything that happened on January 6. You could have an insurrection where nobody brings any guns, but using a Short legal proceeding to keep someone off the ballot is seen as a heroic act?

The right has always inherently been the party, and people more likely to follow the rule of law even when it may not benefit them. Continued actions like these, by the left to use the system in the courts against us, erodes that confidence. If the right believes that everything is stacked against them, and the left ignores, societal norms, and mores, you’re left with no one follow the rule of law, and a totally subjective morality and legal system. that’s not good

Just another manufactured manipulation.

Yes, that’s correct. As long as President Trump appeals the decision to the Supreme Court, the appeals court stays their own ruling – essentially indefinitely. The Colorado primary ballots printed, and the primary election will be over, before the Supreme Court puts this on their docket.

In addition to the virtual guarantee the high court will overrule this political nonsense, SCOTUS can make the entire issue moot before them by following their own normal schedule for submissions, arguments, deliberation and opinions delivered by the court.
