    I have been uneasy about pretty much everything since about 2015 — it seems the entire country has lost their ****ing minds. It rapidly accelerated under trump with how the administration treated both the office and blue states and seems to be arriving at a boiling point.

    The 2024 elections will likely be worse than 2020 in my opinion.

    Yet another reason we need to abandon states running the vote for president, it needs to be given completely to the people of the nation.

    No he has NOT, and that wouldn't trigger the 14-3 in any case.

    Hey libs, do protesters still have Garland's permission to protest in front of the home of justices?

    Well I'm sure they'll find something. Look at the current state of affairs(!).. I am really sorry to say this but it smacks of politics.

    Democrats move to decide who can and can't be on a ballot, and the left goes wild.
    Welcome to fascism at its finest.
    If you run against us we will jail you, then remove you from ballots.
    Whats next? Using the constitution to claim Biden is mentally incompetent and have him removed from red state ballots?
    Or do those Trump glasses only allow you to see what your government commands you to see?

    I don't think you've been paying attention.

    It certainly is, this was an appeal of a lower court ruling. It's a State's right and duty to hold elections according to State Law ... within the Constitution.

    Taking a candidate off a ballot because a state decides who can and can't be on a ballot is the truest definition of Fascism.

    What are you complaining about? Agent Orange's campaign has already sent out small donor fundraising emails because of this ruling. You know what to do to help him!?

    I really think Democrats and lovers of democracy need to be exceptionally disciplined in how they 'get Trump'. It's not just about truth but also about perception. They should be zero grandstanding.

    Agree, that would make it simpler.

    No, IMHO, a sitting president can't organize and instigate an attack on OUR Capitol. <-period This is not politics, it's patriotism.

    You didn't answer the question. Would you support protesters in front of the homes of these justices like Garland did? The question is simple and at most you'd only have to type three letters.

    Oh, I do. I've watched all the false claims against President Biden by tRumpublicans in the House and Senate.

    That's off topic, you should start a thread.

    Oh I agree.

    But no point waving that moral victory flag if the country is rubble. Know what I mean? It shouldn't have been done like this. It shouldn't be the supreme Court of Colorado using ruling a ruling on an election matter to decide whether or not Trump is guilty of insurrection, FFS.

    Whoa! After looking up Fascism, you should read OUR Constitution.

    They obviously would if they could, but Biden didn't engage in insurrection (so far), so he's got that going for him....

    I feel that this ruling will empower them to concoct anything.

    Upholding the Constitution is much less likely to reduce "the country" to rubble than tRaitor tRump. Circumventing OUR Constitution is his current stated goal

    :shock:
    Do you think this ruling will. I think their "impeachment" investigation proves they already felt "empowered".

    Your question is a non sequitur, or worse, an unlit rabbit hole totally unrelated to the thread. Try to keep up and dig into those pockets or would you like Joe to do that for you?

    Again, agreed.

    But as a strategy I think this was poorly done. It even looks like a strategy. They should just let the federal cases roll forward. There is a guilty verdict and then that takes care of everything automatically.

    Fascism??? Do you understand what true fascism is?? This is a moment of joy about an appropriate ruling. He DID incite an insurrection and that alone should disqualify him from running for office. What you might be saing to is that the MAGA gang have no scruples, standards and don't need to comply with the constitution. The GOP used to be a party of /for "values" , well their "values' have certainly deteriorated. It is not a Dem thing...it is a constitutional thing. and what is right . Technically Trump inspired and promoted a major crime against the constitution of this nation. Technically, he is a criminal.
