200 pages can't paper over the fact that he hasn't even been charged with insurrection, let alone convicted.
This brazen attempt to circumvent democracy will be quickly overturned despite Colorado waiting until now hoping to force the issue with their ballots needing printed by Jan. 5 and most judicial bodies closed between now and January.
This removal of Trump from the ballot is going to blow up in the left's faces yet again for these simple reasons:
- Trump is not even charged with much less ever been convicted as an insurrectionist, the entire basis of their removal.
- Nowhere in the 14th Amendment does it stipulate that removal even applies to the presidency. It mentions lower offices only.
- Trump was CLEARED of these charges already by the second impeachment committee.
- The 14th Amendment was written to apply to the U.S. Congress. It accords no such power to the states themselves, otherwise now, we will never get all 50 states to agree on whose on the ballot!
- The entire argument that Colorado hangs its hat on for doing this is a totally arbitrary, fact-less decision based on the all-democrat J6 Committee where all republicans were excluded from joining except by their invitation a la Lez Cheney because she was openly hostile to Trump (per-arranged bias) before their proceedings even began.
- The Colorado court EXCLUDED any evidence of Trump's innocence in their decision including the signed letter by Nancy Pelosi and the mayor of DC to NOT take Trump's advice and recommendation of increased security for the day of J6.
- Removal of a candidate (much less an ex-president) from the ballot based purely on one party's opinion they don't like him would be election tampering to the max disenfranchising voters.
If this isn't rescinded, the GOP will do a total end-around the primaries. Ever notice that with every action by the Left, they throw a monkey wrench into the very gears of the United States? This has got to be at least the twelfth time now in dealing with Trump that democrats have made baseless, unprecedented decisions and taken actions unsupported by law and scorned and rebuffed by 99.9% of the rest of the legal universe.
Not only will Trump be back on the ballot very quickly, but this action to try to subvert democracy is only going to result in further boosting Trump's popularity! Either that or this lawless action is going to crack the very foundations of our elections, which seems to be just what the left want to do.
I wonder if any of those idiots realize that they never got any of the change that they thought Obumma was talking about?
