THE TRUMP 2024 THREAD

[tourists24]

I could argue that Colorado is protecting democracy. And I do. But I do think this decision may be overturned.

All I’m asking for are candidates who don’t engage in insurrection or rebellion.

When Trump is legally charged and convicted of insurrection I'll agree with you. He hasn't even been charged yet. It shouldn't be supreme court's job to convict or acquit on it's own.

But he was charged by the House and found innocent. Colorado judges don't care about facts it seems. They have a weak President Biden to protect.

I’d bet even the Colorado judges who voted to ban Trump from the ballot are hoping they’re overturned by the Supreme Court.

Would you like more states to ban him from their ballots?

Good news! You have that and more in President Trump!

The Colorado judges put a stay on their own decision expecting it to get overturned.

Colorado GOP to have caucus instead of primary if Trump ballot decision stands

Constitution of the United States doesn’t say anything about needing to be convicted of such crimes to be found by courts to have committed the rebellion and thus barred from appearing on the ballot.

What rebellion?

Constitution of the United States doesn’t say anything about needing to be convicted of such crimes to be found by courts to have committed the rebellion and thus barred from appearing on the ballot.

So a state judge or judges can simply declare that the accused has engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the United States and that's it. No election candidacy for them.

 

[vantexan]

The 14th Amendment supersedes state laws and states decide how to run elections. Or at least I thought conservatives thought that states have control over their elections.

You still have to have due process. Trump has not been convicted of a crime yet concerning rebellion or insurrection or treason.

 

[Brown Down]

Constitution of the United States doesn’t say anything about needing to be convicted of such crimes to be found by courts to have committed the rebellion and thus barred from appearing on the ballot.

No but in the 14th it also mentions due process in the states. A liberty is running for office. Thus this ruling will be ruled unconstitutional because of that alone. You can't deny liberties over accusations no matter how much they seem true.

Ok... if that's the standard you like now don't complain when the same standard is applied by a court with someone you support. This sets a new set of rules which is opening pandora's box. Maybe a red state should not allow Biden's name on their ballot for not securing the boarder; which could be argued that is causing insurrection also. All it takes is for some judges to deem it that way

Kamala is the border czar. Disqualify her too.

GOP states are considering to do the same to Biden.

 

[Babagounj]

One must keep in mind that Trump hasn't yet been charged with any crimes that occurred on J6.
For a court to find him guilty without charges being filed causes the rest of the world to know that the USA is no longer a democratic country.

Her results from the first primary will be enough to cause her to drop out.

I have no doubt if the left thinks all that's needed is a declaration from a judge that someone has engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the United States. Especially since those terms haven't even been clearly defined.

What might a conservative judge label as rebellion against the US?
