My asks whether those judges in Colorado are elected. Maybe this is also a bid to get re-elected on their part.

Way ahead of you.

I looked it up. When they are first nominated, they serve on a probationary basis for two years and then face an election. They win that, they serve for life.

So the weird thing is the ones who are oldest on the court are the ones who went with this bullshit. It was the newest ones who dissented.

This just became the GOP's abortion issue. Only Dems who think it 'ok' are much more clueless about the ramifications than GOPers are about abortion restrictions.

Primary ballot only.

So?

He didn't need CO anyway. Still could get it as a write in, long shot though.

It amazes me how fucking stupid people can be.

This isn't about whether he needed Colorado or not.

This is about whether someone's rights can be taken away w/o due process.

Unbelievable

@Patrick check this out. Seems we have our answer.

If they are trying to remove Trump from a ballot, it must be because Trump has a lead in the polls.

This is true.

I actually lived in a Harvard dorm for most of a semester when I had a girlfriend who went there. I was 23 and she was 21. She kept me as kind of a pet, and I was OK with that. The lesson was that Harvard and other Ivy League students do feel better than everyone else, and entitled to rule because of their superiority. I proposed direct democracy to my girlfriend once, and she was horrified at the idea of letting the hoi polloi directly vote on laws that she would be subject to.

Well, that is why the Founding Fathers set up a Republic and not a democracy.

How you can tell that things are really going to hell...

Judging from my oligarch ex in laws, they will let you borrow their grandiosities in a fleeting manner as a courtesy, but will also let you know in so many little gestures that you are not part of the Bohemian Grove happening. If you are lucky, you are granted a kind of quasi servant status to keep hanging around.
Stanford has entered full on disgrace mode, being integral with Silicon Valley and its designated DOD/DARPA/MKUltra/Tavistock spy and AI apparatus, and inoculating its pleb student layer relentlessly with the vaxicides. David Rothschild appears to be their world bankster executive officer, also in charge of CGI and Hollywood name stealing type theatrical effects for the tech operative fronts. He likes to portray as usual usual as hippy free spirit philanthropist.

Now even Bolton is chiming in.

Bolton!

Lunz: "Trump is the most successful victim politician I have seen in 35 years of my doing this."

KommieKunt metastasis. They are trying to foist Colorado's unconstitutional Kommie fiat decision against Trump as some form of legal precedent. This means that the whore judges are perverting the entire concept of stare decisis.

What makes you think they are gonna stop at CO?

What makes you think they are gonna stop even if SCOTUS bitchslaps this?

So the state court is a part of deepstate too?
Boy, the definition of "deepstate" seems to widen every day.

Nothing wrong with Bolton. At least he hasn't shown himself a false prophet and a stupid cunt like some other "conservative" idols of p.net.

I think he is the government poster boy for the criminally insane.

I would not have believed this could be happening; it's insane how evil the lefty liberal democrats are.

I am not religious, but I wish a pox on all of them and eternal damnation.

Maybe? Why maybe?

Where do you see the word "maybe?"

Trump is crazy and his super power is making his opposition actually act even crazier. TDS at work.
But this is not unexpected - it is the playbook. And if SC does overturn, Dems just run on
"Trump's SC saved him and blocked democracy!" That gives more reason why you need to stack the court...
And so forth...can't lose campaign strategy when you also throw in the SC stance on abortion.

This certainly does show the Dem party true colors and they are surprisingly authoritarian. Too funny to see true liberals assail this ruling as a catastrophe. The liberal part of the Dem party has lost to the extreme left and still don't realize it.

CA and other Blue states I expect will follow suit...

Trump has enemies on the right and left - so sad.
There is some theory out there this was done to galvanize Trumps support so he would be the nominee "for sure" and easy for Biden to beat, expecting SC to overturn. But I don't think that really holds water - the nomination was Trump's from the beginning. I guess there is a legit feat that Trump "could" win. Who knows. I am sure the other courts will continue to keep him occupied and possibly jail him.

It would be interesting if some strong GOP player challenging Trump did something similar - like TX blocking Biden due to his non-enforcement of border laws and therefore supporting a foreign invasion, etc... The argument can be made and just as valid as the CO court. But I don't think the GOP has the guts to do similar, and usually the managerial class/courts are far more composed of lefties. The only option for a GOP candidate is to out-Trump Trump - and that is hard to do.

Did you hear about the witch hunt that occurred in a red district with a liberal school board at the meeting just a couple of weeks ago? The hour is late and the globalists are clamping down on anyone who dares dissent.

Excellent podcast explains how messed up these crazy liberals are.

Here is the liberal behind Trump's disqualification from the primary ballot in Colorado. His name is Noah Bookbinder (
@NoahBookbinder
). Yesterday he wrote, "We just won before the Colorado Supreme Court in our challenge to keep Donald Trump off the ballot as disqualified under the 14th amendment for engaging in insurrection. A huge moment for democracy. More to come soon."

In September, he said that his group was representing dissatisfied Republicans and Independents in Colorado who wanted Trump off the ballot. Only Republicans and Independents vote in the GOP primaries in Colorado.

He wrote back in September, "BREAKING: Six Republican and unaffiliated Colorado voters, represented by
@CREWcrew
and distinguished CO attorneys, just filed a lawsuit to remove Donald Trump from the state's ballot because he is disqualified under the constitution's 14th amendment."

NOTE: He said six Republicans and unaffiliated Colorado voters are the ones who went to court. But in reality, it's the liberals behind it using six Republicans who hate Trump.

As Glen Greenwald pointed out tonight, this same group has about 14 cases against Trump in other states using the same tactics. They want to go from state to state finding liberals registered as Republicans and to go to court.

As you can see, it all seems fraudulent.
