BREAKING: The Minnesota Supreme Court has REJECTED a request to bar former President Donald Trump from the 2024 ballot

[MAGA Macho Man]

The Constitution prevails. Trump will not be barred from the Minnesota ballot. Trump was never charged and convicted for starting an insurrection.

 

[excalibur]

And this is a rather liberal Supreme Court.

​

The Minnesota Supreme Court on Wednesday dismissed a lawsuit seeking to bar former President Donald Trump from the 2024 primary ballot under a constitutional provision that forbids those who “engaged in insurrection” from holding office.​

​

​

The state’s high court declined to become the first in history to use Section Three of the 14th Amendment to prevent someone from running for the presidency. However, it said in its ruling the decision applied only to the state’s primary and left open the possibility that plaintiffs could try again to knock Trump off the general election ballot in November.​

The law is super-clear here.

I would most certainly think there would have to be a conviction for this to even be considered.

Well what's next libs?.... Buuuaaahahahahahahha

It shows how desperate Democrats are to keep Trump off the ballot. An insurrection never took place.

It's a crazy day when I agree with Macho man's post.

Are you like super macho man from Mike Tyson's punch out?

No but seditious conspiracy did.

To be honest that might be worse then insurrection.

 

[Oddball]

In a total shocker, the MN Supreme Court blows off the spurious and specious 14th Amendment scam, and allows Trump onto the ballot.

Doesn't matter, though....The moonbat freaks in the Twin Cities pretty much rule the entire state.

The state’s high court declined to become the first in history to use Section 3 of the 14th Amendment to prevent someone from running for the presidency. The court dodged the central question of the lawsuit — does Trump’s role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol disqualify him from the presidency — by ruling that state law allows parties to put whomever they want on the primary ballot.

“There is no state statute that prohibits a major political party from placing on the presidential nomination primary ballot, or sending delegates to the national convention supporting, a candidate who is ineligible to hold office,” Chief Justice Natalie Hudson ruled. Two justices had recused themselves from the Nov. 2 hearing.

Sure it is, but that has never stopped Libtards and Demonrats. The most corrupt lying and cheating bastards on the face of this Earth

 

[The Duke]

I doubt half of Somalia is going to vote for Trump.

I remember when people from Minnesota sounded like Bobby's mom.

 

[MarcATL]

I agree w/this decision.

 

[struth]

The law is super-clear here.

Agreed…the law gets in the way of another demafacist attempt to undermine the election

 

[MarcATL]

OP, this is because liberal judges actually follow the law and not their own ideologies.

 

[MarcATL]

The reason why so many far rightwing OPs are shocked by this totally normal occurrence is that they expect liberal judges to be like their rightwing judges, political activists.

They aren't. They actually stick to the law.

 

[wamose]

This was just like the bullshit charges they brought against Trump. They have nothing to do with law and order, what's right or the truth. They have everything to do with fucking up Trump's campaign. Election tampering, plain and simple.

I am not at all shocked, it's rather normal for demafascist attempts to undermine the rule of law to get tossed by the courts...this is why demafasist do all they can to undermine the Judicial branch.

While claiming he cannot possibly win the election.

At least they are consistently FOS.

Yup. The orange douchebag has not been convicted - yet.

Besides, this decision is only for the primary, not the general. This was the ruling:
... justices are dismissing the case because the state’s March 5 primary is “an internal party election to serve internal party purposes” that does not provide the final determination of who appears on the ballot for the general election in November 2024.

This means - the group can appeal again for the general election. By that time, who knows, the orange loser might have been convicted. The douchebag and his retard followers may need to do a whole lot of praying that it does not happen.

Liberals believe their feelz supercede silly things like convictions, laws, or that pesky Constitution.
