It’s the first court to find that the disqualification clause of the 14th Amendment applies to Mr. Trump, in addition to affirming that he engaged in insurrection.

    “Unsurprisingly, the all-Democrat appointed Colorado Supreme Court has ruled against President Trump, supporting a Soros-funded, left-wing group’s scheme to interfere in an election on behalf of Crooked Joe Biden by removing President Trump’s name from the ballot and eliminating the rights of Colorado voters to vote for the candidate of their choice,” a campaign spokesman, Steven Cheung, said.

    I just lost several IQ points through reading this statement.

        Unfortunately, it’s increasingly looking like a lot of Gen Z might buy that kind of rhetoric.

          This one is not actually hypocritical - half of them like Israel because they don’t want Jews here, and the other half like Israel because they think Jews in the holy land means Jesus is coming back soon.

          They support Israel for what it means to them, they still don’t like Jews in general.

    It’s a gift article, so everyone should be able to read it.

    The case is pending appeal, and Trump will be able to appeal to the US Supreme Court.

    The Colorado Supreme Court cited January 6th and the 14th Amendment to justify Trump’s removal from the ballot.

    Let’s hope this ruling holds, and that Colorado is only the first of many states.
