Colorado Supreme Court Declares Trump Ineligible For Office

The Supreme Court of Colorado has declared Trump ineligible for public office and barred from the ballot in the state. This is the first time the 14th amendment has been applied to a presidential candidate.

True, but you’ve got to celebrate the small victories.

Biden won Colorado handily anyway, by double digits. It’s not really in play so it’s a symbolic victory anyway, but it’s nice to hear a state Supreme Court officially declare him an insurrectionist AND reinforce the fact that the president holds an office in the federal government and that comes with a responsibility to follow the constitution, contradicting all of Trump’s legal positions.

Yes, it may be reversed by the Supreme Court, but my take is running elections is a state’s responsibility so the federal court has no standing, and I think they understand that whatever precedent they set could be exploited by the current administration to maintain power…if it’s not illegal for Trump to call for an overthrow of democracy, it’s not illegal for Biden…and they likely recall the numerous times Trump has hinted that he doesn’t feel we need a Supreme Court anymore and he would hobble or disband it once he’s “dictator on day one”….the newest horrifying MAGA slogan…so they have little incentive to get involved.

Too early to celebrate. Trump got his cronies up at the Federal Supreme Court.

Don’t forget, Trump said Ted Cruz should be disqualified from the ballot in 2016. Clinton too. He has no qualms about banning people from the ballot so long as they aren’t named Trump.
Also don’t forget this case was brought by Republicans, not Democrats @bobknight33

PS- still going to disgraced child rapist and Epstein friend and defender Dershowitz!? 🤦‍♂️ he says the 14th amendment doesn’t cover the president (arguments during its writing over the wording prove otherwise conclusively) and now that it only covered one insurrection (the civil war) and that any subsequent insurrections must get a new amendment to be illegal. Both arguments are utter nonsense, have zero basis in law, and are contradicted by the minutes of the sessions in congress when the amendment was written where there spelled out clearly why the wording includes the president and any insurrection. Jesus Christ bob, you just love grasping at rotten straws don’t you?

Nicely the Colorado court included that in their decision, so the originalist justices have a choice, follow what the writers said clearly was the intent and wording of the law, or toss out the constitution and protect Trump again, ending any semblance of legitimacy for this court.

Side note- Texas Republicans, led by the Lt Governor, are already threatening to remove Biden from the Texas ballot for spite. Clearly the right has no problem with removing candidates for no reason at all…only with removing their cult leader for a legitimate constitutional cause.

Colorado Supreme decision is just a bump for Trump to get to the Supreme Court

When this goes to the US Supreme Court - a final decision will be made.

This is still a nothing burger -- just a wet dream for the left.

😂 Ahhhh….more internet lawyering from the team that’s lost every court case in the last 4 years. Next you’ll post Haba explaining how it’s all highly illegal democratic political skulduggery, thinking she knows what she’s talking about despite her abysmal track record. 😂
Good luck with that…how’s it been working for you?
🍔🍔🍔🍔🍔

As usual, you are projecting.

That’s IF.

The Supreme Court ignoring the rights given to the states in the constitution to even take the case, much less ignoring it altogether to save Trump is the pipe dream….but considering the hyper partisan absurdly corrupt nature of the Trump court appointees and their cronies, of all things MAGA in fact, anything is possible. They just might be that dumb and anti American, they are absolutely that corrupt.
Remember, if they say it’s legal for Trump to direct a crowd to stop election proceedings, it’s legal for Biden, and he still has pardon powers to keep his insurrectionists out of prison.

But if not, no problem, since it’s totally 100% fake news nothingburgers, just get congress to override it (since specifically only they can, not courts)…or just ignore it and write in Daddy Trump, then claim fraud when he loses.

You really are exactly that ignorant, aren’t you?
No American is that ignorant, Vlad. We lived with that court, you clearly did not or you would know better.
For the last >50 years the court has been at least 5-4 CONSERVATIVE, now it’s 6-3 CONSERVATIVE, and you call that a leftist court. 🤦‍♂️

You have lost your fucking mind you absolute nut job…or you are dumber than a rock….most likely both.
I hate to burst your bubble, but 6 is MORE THAN 3, 5 is MORE THAN 4.
You need to stop making yourself look so insanely idiotic. Better to be silent and let us think you a fool than open your mouth and astonish us with the level of your stupidity.

Finally after 50 years of Leftest lean on the bench.

Only if they rule by January 4th, otherwise he’s just not on the primary ballot.

Also, he will lose the Colorado case or the court is giving Biden the green light to do exactly the same thing.

Either way, Trump will lose Colorado like he did before. Don’t fret, President pant load the insurrectionist incel will be so busy trying to stay out of prison for treason he won’t have time or money to campaign for himself, much less others. 2024 is going to be a shitshow of republicans falling over themselves with no coordination.

This does nothing to put him back on the ballot in Maine.

Also, this is one of a dozen cases he must win to be on the ballots, and Trump is a massive constant loser in court.



Sucker.

Oooff….this did not age well….

Dershowitz WAS named in the Epstein depositions repeatedly as a client, one who Jane Doe #3 was forced to have sex with repeatedly as a 13 year old minor not just in Florida but on planes, in New York, New Mexico, and the US Virgin Islands. The sworn statements go on to document that Dershowitz was also often present on the island alone with Epstein, without his family, getting “massages” from young, like 13 year old girls…not a one time with his wife together couple’s massage by 35 year old women as he claimed.
Not exactly the pinnacle of virtue or brilliant legal mind he once may have been.
His answer…no one can possibly say anything about him unless they first publicly condemn Hamas.
