Nothing says I stand for “democracy” like removing the opponent you’re losing to from the ballot.
From Jonathan Turley last night:
The Colorado Supreme Court has issued an unsigned opinion disqualifying Trump from the ballot: “The sum of these parts is this: President Trump is disqualified from holding the office of President under Section Three; because he is disqualified.”…courts.state.co.us/userfiles/file
And the thing is they’re acting on something they don’t have any jurisdiction over, yet, if they ever will.
The Colorado supreme Court is acting on a conviction that hasn’t happened, and it’s looking increasingly doubtful that it will… And it seems likely that’s why the court, or whatever political entity is pulling their strings, decided to act when they did.
And there’s something else here as well. This action by the Colorado Court shows clearly that the fix was in.
It also shows that the Democrats really don’t care about the will of the people.
This is not going to withstand review. Once the US supreme Court gets a hold of it it’s going to go down in flames, and the president’s people have already suggested that they are going to appeal to the ussc.
The only advantage for the Democrats at this point (and they must have known this) was that it creates a negative headline with Trump’s name attached to it.
What they have not calculated with is that in turn it’s going to lead to more solidification of Trump’s lead over Joe Biden. That’s been the pattern for months now, as real clear politics has been showing..
Oh one more thing, Laura ingraham on her show tonight suggested that if Colorado can capriciously write an opinion that keeps Donald Trump off the ballot can’t we do the same with Joe Biden?
