I said I heard, never bothered to look it up. Shows your intelligence, not mine. 💕

Also I heard this from the Trump campaign themselves, so what does that say about them?

That's not the campaign, that's really Trump.

I know because Don Jr. texts me all the time about voting in the upcoming election

New York moving ahead with trying to take Trump off the ballot too


Heh, remember when during the George Floyd riots the democrats make boogeymen out of the boogaloo accelerationists? I mean, as if it wasn't ironic enough as their rank and file were literally torching a city.
But this boogaloo is going full steam

This was not a supreme court decision. This was the chief justice giving his opinion (not the opinion of the supreme court) in his function as the head of a circuit court that did not include Colorado in its jurisdiction.

In absence of a full surpeme court decision this case is irrelevant to Colorado's decision.

Isn't it funny how this always happens? I can spend less than 5 minutes on google and prove you wrong using your own documents? Happens like, literally every time we talk.

If you want to try to pull a technicality as a gotcha on someone you should probably make your own post clear of technical violations too.
This case isn't irrelevant to Colorado's decision, the SCOTUS is almost certainly going to read into this precedent specifically because Samuel Chase was both chief justice of the supreme court and present at the drafting of the 14th amendment and uniquely suited to weigh in on its intent, as well as direct cause for the acts of congress that followed to strip southerners from their positions under the soon following 15th amendment just like Chase said was necessary, like the Ku Klux Klan Act.

Besides, what do you think you're going to get from this argument? Its a rarity for court cases to be so expedited that I'll be able to tell you how wrong you are in just a few weeks. We can just bump this thread a few times
Do you think this is going to go to a SCOTUS who hear arguments bringing up past precedents like Chase's opinion and the total lack of due process and the total annihilation of American democracy that would ensue and for John Roberts to say yeah, I'd love to plunge this country into the abyss?

Ah so you're hanging your hat on "maybe the supreme court will use this when they do decide so its not technically totally irrelevant".

Which is silly since I specifically said "In absence of a full surpeme court decision", as in you need that decision before Colorado has to take note of this case.

Your desperation has been noted though.

We already wrote a 5th amendment to the constitution and the Colorado court didn't take note of that in this case.
This isn't a case where we're guessing whether scotus will strike it down, this is a case where we're guessing on how many different levels and depths of reasons scotus will cite when striking it down.

This won't end well but the US SC will not pass the corruption of the democrats.

The Michigan State Supreme Court just issued an opposite ruling to that by their peers in Colorado. Big win for Trump in its own right; and should pave the way for this question to go straight to the SCOTUS. Logically speaking, this is not a question which can be decided on a state-by-state basis - either Trump's actions meet the standard of the 14th amendment or they don't, either he must be barred from all ballots in all states, or eligible in all states.
