In a stunning and unprecedented decision, the Colorado Supreme Court removed former President Donald Trump from the state’s 2024 ballot, ruling that he isn’t an eligible presidential candidate because of the 14th Amendment’s “insurrectionist ban.”
His point was that Trump hasn’t been convicted yet. Even though he obviously invited an insurrection, legally he hasn’t until he’s convicted.
If we set this precedent pretty soon Republicans will be flooding Democrats with bullshit “insurrection” allegations to get them off of ballots. If they have enough control in their state’s supreme Court they might even succeed.
That is the big flaw of the Republican Party right now. Their policy is stop the democrats. That’s a stupid policy.
I want to see each party create a policy then meet In the middle. I fully support abortion and it irritates me the republicans for the most part have taken a radical stance on it.
There is no other option. Just fighting them doesn’t lead to any solution for anyone. Republicans will slowly lose power not because their ideas are bad but because their only goal is to block the Democrats.
The world is not black and white. There is a grey area where you have to compromise to be successful as a country.
You have to be aware of what they are and negotiate. Remove their fascist parts and move forward. We can’t change the two party system by just not doing anything.
depends, did the other side’s nominee engage in an insurrection in flagrant violation of the constitution?
Thanks for taking the time to consider what I was saying.

Nice alt.
Republicans are already talking about it.
It’ll turn into the impeachment fiasco where they try to impeach every president.
Also every time the democrats do stupid shit. Trump becomes more popular
I think it is more that Biden temporarily loses support and Trump stays the exact same.
He doesn’t gain support.
Republicans need to start talking about policy and how they will govern but that’s typically where they fall apart.

Compromise isn’t weakness. It’s strength.
You repeatedly call the Democratic Party and their voters Nazis but you want to meet them in the middle?

If the world is not black and white and you want to work together how is calling Democrats and their voters Nazis helping that?
