And absent due process to actually convict on insurrection, the Supreme Court will overrule all of these fucking blue state assholes.
I don't care if you love him or hate Trump. We don't fuck up our rule of law because of political motive. If this goes through, what keeps ANY future administration to do the same. What if Texas, Florida, South Dakota, and a dozen other RED states decide to keep Biden off the ballot because HE is causing an 'invasion' on our southern border. Same logic.

You know you doing well when your opponents start desperate shit like this!
|

Where exactly does the constitution say that you have to be convicted of insurrection to be considered an insurrectionist and prevented from running for/holding office?
I think this whole thing is pretty flimsy and it could certainly get ruled either way by SCOTUS but there could be something else, this court could just be done with this guy and being viewed as an extension of MAGA and see this is an off ramp to get rid of him for good. We'll see, it'll be interesting theater.

^ I would agree except for the fact that there is a gop supermajority 6-3. The Supreme Court is nothing more than another political entity now.

notsofast...you are an insurrectionist, you are a rapist, you are a moron, you are whatever. There, it is proven and a done deal. Just because someone SAYS you are something does not PROVE it.
Here is what the 14th Amendment actually states. I deleted section 2 since it does not apply to this situation. Section one guarantees a person due process of law (read it carefully, as it states No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges of a citizen) and section 3 specifies what these crazy Colorado judges are trying to apply. Section 3 says "shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the United States". Of course, you do realize this was put into the Constitution to address the potential election of Confederates after the Civil War. Until such time as someone proves Trump as engaging in insurrection and he is granted due process....this as Hilary Clinton always says, "is a nothing burger" Trump hasn't even been accused of insurrection and NONE of the January 6th people have been accused of insurrection.
Fourteenth Amendment
Section 1
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Section 3
No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

I actually agree with you, but it does not specifically say that there has to be a conviction to be disqualified. I'm sure that will be the Trump argument and it does hold water, but will the SCOTUS overturn a State Supreme Court ruling here? We just don't know.
At any rate, I did not do any of those things that you accused me of.
|
|
notsofast...you obviously didn't read section 1.
No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
The government cannot take away any privileges of citizens or deprive them of life, liberty or property without due process of law. That means the person faces their accusers and gets to present evidence on their behalf. That has NOT been done.
Maybe you didn't do any of those things....but by the logic of this court, because someone said you did...it must be true.....that is my exact point here.
|
|
My point is a modern court is going to argue semantics of something that has not been dealt with since the Civil War. Does section 1 override section 3? Vice versa? Obviously, after the Civil War they did not have time to get a "conviction" of all of the confederates to prevent them from holding office, this is one guy, is the standard the same? I don't think so, but it will be interesting to hear the opinion, especially after Dobb's returned abortion decisions to states.

Jazz is perturbed.
|
|
Not perturbed, just fearful what today’s Democratic Party is doing to our Constitution.
|
|
It’s not doing anything to the Constitution.
It’s serving justice to a known criminal and potentially the most dangerous man on the planet.
|
|
on January 6th, DT was not a citizen but the POTUS. How does that play into this?
|
|
thank God, SCOTUS is not appointed democratically..
|
|
No worries. Texas & Florida are saying that they're considering doing the same to beden.
Only they actually have grounds that biden has failed in 'Preserving, Protecting & Defending' the Constitution - he's actually allowed a foreign army to invade the US: 8 million illegal aliens allowed to come into the US w/ impunity.
Now, there are more red states then blue.
Who do you think wins that fight?
Atticus Finch
|
|
Definite start to a chit show.
|
|
The latest poll shows 54% of the American public supports the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision to disqualify Trump from being on the ballot.
|
|
^ What I said in another blog.
Frankly, SCOTUS needs to vote 9 - 0 to put a stop to this ongoing bullshit.
Due Process takes precedence...... it's #1.
And, was cited by the Dem appointed judges on the CO supremes.
Those three were appalled.
Again, if you're certain that Biden wins.......let it play out and the RNC goes down in 🔥
Simple but Dems are so dumb.
As soon as CO did this, Trump surged again.
Fucking idiots.
|
|
Lol, not that stupid post.
The one above it about the shit show.
|
|
And the fragile little entitled snowflakes want Biden to be removed from ballots in a childish game of tit for tat.
Trump is a treasonous criminal. Biden isn’t.
The GOP knew that challenges to Trump’s candidacy were coming, so they engineered a weak impeachment inquiry on Biden despite the committee and GOP witnesses admitting they have no evidence of wrongdoing.
Republicans are politically pathetic and a majority of this country clearly sees it.
|
|
Despite not wanting Biden to run, Biden’s impeachment inquiry and removal from any state ballots would be complete bullshit.
Yes, you can argue that Trump needs to be determined to have aided and abetted the insurrection, but all of the Colorado Supreme Court Justices didn’t even question the fact that he did so because he clearly did. They quoted his speech and his actions prior to the insurrection.
|
|
Must be nice to be sure you're always right, no matter what.
Are you this arrogant in civvy life too?
|
|
I could be wildly off base here but I think the reasoning behind SCOTUS overturning the CO supreme court would be that they're using a constitutional amendment to disallow trump from being on the ballot. I think that's not in their purview but rather a decision of constitionalitty should be decided by the supreme court. But again I'm not a lawyer, only have been represented by them lol
|

"Yes, you can argue that Trump needs to be determined to have aided and abetted the insurrection, but all of the Colorado Supreme Court Justices didn’t even question the fact that he did so because he clearly did. They quoted his speech and his actions prior to the insurrection."
Psst it was 4-3 and you should read the desenting opinions.
|
|
MA don't read anything that don't agree with him.
He is the benchmark by which all others are either good.......or evil
|
|
This is gonna tear down democracy if this stands. They are not letting the People decide elections now. The people are who decide elections, not unelected judges. Everyone better wake up. This will have dire consequences for the USA as we know it. If Biden won last time against Trump why would he not win again? If they do not let the people decide elections then we are not a democracy any more. I guess they want Socialism.

On a side note the orange grifter and family will make additional millions, even billions fucking America.
“ Earlier this year, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), a prominent watchdog organization, published a related report noting that Trump’s presidency “was marred by unprecedented conflicts of interest arising from his decision not to divest from the Trump Organization,” which was run by his family during his White House tenure.
The report added, “Donald Trump made up to $160 million from international business dealings while he was serving as president of the United States, according to an analysis of his tax returns by CREW.”
Elect Haley, and kick the orange clown to the curb.

I just read this:
Republicans: You should beat Trump at the ballot box, not in court
Democrats: We already did. He then launched an insurrection to overthrow the results of us beating him at the ballot box.
That’s why he’s in court. Hope this helps.
————————-
What’s going to happen if Trump loses again in 2024 if he’s allowed to run? He’s already claiming, once again, that it’s going to be an unfair election.
Is it not clear that he’s not suitable for public office? He needs to be tried prior to the 2024 election. And he should not be allowed to run again.
People who break the law and act against the Constitution are an enemy of the state. This isn’t political prosecution.
This is also not meant to help Biden win again. Fuck him too. Let someone else be the Democrat nominee. And let someone else be the Republican nominee.

Update: there is an audio recording of Trump pressuring Michigan canvassers not to certify the vote results from 2020. After the call, the canvassers attempted to take back their certification, but to no avail.
|
|
Ronna McDaniel, Chairwoman of the Republican Party, was also on the call.
The GOP is rotten to the core. They love to demonize Democrats and claim that they are crooked, yet there is no comparison: Republicans win hands down when it comes to corruption.

What the fuck, Edmond.
You know that fag-hag meeting happened last night atTrashy Girl after hours in West Hollywood.
We have TikTok clips of you there in drag trying to score money for cigarettes and mascara for after “back-door-alley” alley sex.
|

"Are you this arrogant in civvy life too ? "
My vote is Yes In thee end they never win.
Trump wouldn't get the CO Electorial votes anyway.
CO can't even define what an insurrection is. Neither did that sham of impeachment committee.
|
|
"The GOP is rotten to the core."
And, the DNC helped to fund the Russian Collusion scam............Obama, Biden, Clinton, et al all involved or, at least, knowledgeable about it. Various heads of Cabinets and departments also participated.....FBI, CIA, Justice Dept., James Clapper and many many others.
Don't kid yourself, they're all pretty much rotten to the core.
The nature of politics and political parties.
Sucks, but it is what it is.
We just need to get rid of these 2 garbage candidates so the country can move on.

Goebbels,
Russian collusion was not a scam. Mueller had his hands tied by Barr and there have been plenty of connections between Trump’s 2016 campaign and Russian operatives. I don’t see that as evidence of the DNC being rotten, and certain ally not at the same level of the RanC in terms of attempting to overturn a legitimate election result.

Craig’s on Melrose is nice if you like Italian food. Lots of celebrities, including Clooney, Cher, JLo, etc. frequent the place.
It is a win for Trump at this point if he is able to have a substantial delay, but it may actually work out in Jack Smith’s favor in the end. The Colorado case will be combined with other State cases regarding the 14th Amendment. SCOTUS has to take that case. The Court of Appeal will now hear Trump’s appeal, claiming immunity from criminal prosecution, which he will 100% lose. Trump will then appeal once again to the SCOTUS and they may reject hearing it again, automatically confirming the Court of Appeal’s decision.
That way it doesn’t have to decide the case, avoiding the appearance of being heavily embroiled in Trump’s mess.

The Dems spent the whole night finding votes, but Trump asks for 11000 and he is an Insurrectionist!
|

@ loucfirr1
Yeah, right. Come to terms with the fact that the only criminals were Trump and his sycophants.
@ Edmond
Are you familiar with The Edition? It’s actually an amazing hotel. Very expensive. They have a club on the bottom floor where they have small invite only concerts. Post Malone has performed there…really cool place.

"Russian collusion was not a scam."
What a brainwashed idiot, in the face of overwhelming evidence.
Collutard? Ruscolluturd?
Hmm, gotta work on an appropriate meme here.
Got it, Muellerturd!
Figured out why you hate Trumpturds so much, you're exactly like them!

50 intelligence agents lied in an open letter that Hunters laptop was likely Russian disinformation, when in fact, the FBI KNEW that it was Hunter's.
That is a proven fact.
Maybe we're just not getting good work product for our tax dollar investment, or....
These agents are fucking stupid, or.....
They got fooled by the Biden admin (some did ask for their names to be removed), or......
They were all willing to lie thru their teeth in order to prevent Biden from losing
Take your pick but probably all 4.
MA is an idiot and will always be an idiot.

There needs to be term limits for the House and Senate. All these people become crooks the longer they stay. They all need to go. They are stealing bud all blind and a lot of you can’t see it. Are you really that blind or you just don’t give a bleep if they push your dumb agenda. They are robbing us blind and taxing the crap out of us. Stealing from our Social Security yet they have the best of everything. How can you be worth millions if you worked in government for 50 years. It is not possible. Biden is a criminal. He does not have the brains to write a book and does not own any other business. Don’t fool yourself’s. And Pelosi s the greatest stock trader ever. McConnell is a joke, and so on. Both sides need to go. Every 8 years and that’s it. No more of this 30-50 years I. Government. The People need to wake the bleep up and fix this crap before it’s to late and we are a Socialist country.

The BigGuy is right!

Goebbels
I thought we were talking about Russian collusion, you fucking imbecile.
Watch the linked YouTube video of Adam Schiff grilling Durham on his report. There was obvious collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign. Mueller’s hands were tied by Bill Barr. Even Trump thought he was fucked prior to the release of the Mueller report. It sucks that Mueller turned out not to have any teeth. He could have saved us all from the criminal mess that is Trump.
|

You communists (that's what you are), are all dreaming.
You think you're going to save the left by attacking Trump. But like Rocky says, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.
And moving forward he is. Ahead in the polls in 5 of 6 key swing states. He will beat Biden resoundingly.
You think the courts in left wing commie states are going to be able to keep him off the ballot? You think they're actually going to put him in jail?
Negro, please!!!!
TRUMP 47, coming to a nightmare near you!!!
