Lawsuit to block Trump from Colorado 2024 ballot survives more legal challenges

[konradv]

Wrong.
A republic gives authority to the people whenever possible.
A republic does not allow a single branch to prevent any candidate from being electable.

A republic works with laws, not strongmen who want to be a dictator, even for a day, because we know that never happens.

Why would they block ANYONE from being on a ballot if they qualify? Is that how democracy works? People can only vote for those a judge agrees is worthy?

They are clearly becoming desperate. SCOTUS can be cowardly again and refuse to become involved in electoral politics but if they do, this time it will lead us down a road from which there will be no returning. The modern Democrat party is toxic and anti-democracy. In short, they've become a Marxist party and if they get their way, next will come violence, even pogroms against those not sufficiently loyal to the state.

The court said Trump DOESN’T qualify, making your post clueless at the very least!

Letter to the Editor, 12/25/2023

The conclusion in the Dec. 21 editorial, “Should courts throw Mr. Trump off the ballot? Not so fast.,” that the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision to find Donald Trump ineligible to hold office is flawed was premised primarily on one argument: The court failed to consider the due process of law. The editorial focused on the insurrection question and whether due process under the 14th Amendment requires that one have been convicted of (or at least charged with) the crime of insurrection to be excluded from the ballot. But at the time the Constitution was amended by the 14th, no such crime existed.

Insurrection was not criminalized until the most recent law was enacted, after World War II. It is clear that the Constitution did not then anticipate, let alone require, a criminal conviction. Equally clear is that the factual finding of “insurrection” by a district court judge in a civil action that afforded Mr. Trump due process is more than sufficient to support the Colorado Supreme Court’s opinion.

keeping an insurrectionist off the ballot preserves democracy.

Democrats aren't disqualifying Trump. Donald Trump disqualified Trump.

And this Colorado challenge was brought by a 91 year old lifelong Republican.

What else ya got, chump?

That is good news for anyone who believes the only way they can win over a candidate is to do an end around over letting the constitutional process play out properly of letting the citizenry of a free society decide who they like because you don't think you'll win over him in a fair, straight up election.

The court will be forced to allow him since he has never ever been convicted of anything remotely close to an insurrection

This is a civil action, not criminal. A conviction is not required.

Yeah the Court will see right through that crap!

Supreme Court Justices came to work today to say “whoa whoa whoa you’re asking me to make a decision with significant nationwide legal implications based on the factual record developed in a single court in a single state… what if other courts disagreed?” like they all just fell off a turnip truck.

Hello again you insanely pathetic copy/paste Democrat worm. How much will you be crying when Florida and Texas remove Biden from the ballot? It's time to start curtailing the regressive legal warfare from all parties. Yet, here the worm resides echoing this toxic legal strife as if each instance was a piece of candy to them. It isn't candy, rather a deadly poison to the heart and soul of the USA.

You need cause. MAGA has nothing but lies and missing “whistleblowers”!

Call me Morpheus. Only copy/pasting doesn't really require independent thought and is lazy. You should provide URL's from now for citations and provide your personal analysis. I think the mods should start locking your threads if most of the posts in them are plagiarized. And you seem to only respond to opposition with one sentence which doesn't address the argument.
