Fifty-four percent of Americans -- and even 24% of Republicans -- approved of the Colorado Supreme Court's decision to kick Donald Trump off of its 2024 ballot.
I’m not the person above, but actually go look at the pages. It’s double spaced, wide margins, and sometimes up to half a page taken up by citations. Not that it’s exactly going to be a speedy read, but it’ll be way faster than like 200 pages might seem. The supreme court margins if you’ve ever looked at those rulings get especially ridiculous, each page is like a quarter of a page. Tiny bit of text floating in the middle of a mostly empty page. Not sure why they format them that way. Anyways, they’re long, but not as long as the page totals imply. A minute per page isn’t unreasonable.
Not what I’m saying at all. There are certainly parts that I read more lightly than others, because they had to do with what the district court did and said (as well as other background and history I’m already familiar with), and I’d already read that. The three dissenting opinions are at the end; the majority opinion addressed every single misplaced concern in those, so those weren’t terribly demanding (or well written), either.
When I had the thought of my original comment here, it’s because I’d read it, and I was only confident to make such a comment because I’d read it.
There’s not a ton I can say to “prove” anything to anyone here, but I am the person who made a place for posting such documents, which should indicate my interest. This ruling is one of the most important court rulings in American history. I saw the articles talking about it, went to documentcloud to find it, posted it, settled in to read it.
Let’s say it’s 200 pages even. You took a little less than a minute per page to read, think about, and type about topics with your friend?
Methinks dishonesty afoot.

There’s a lot of citations throughout that can be skipped over.
Compelling rebuttal. So, you’re saying you skimmed it?
edit: was meant in jest, my apologies.
