The Colorado Supreme Court has “Determined” Donald J Trump engaged in insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021.
“A majority of the court holds that President Trump is disqualified from holding the office of President under Section Three of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution,” the decision reads. “Because he is disqualified, it would be a wrongful act under the Election Code for the Colorado Secretary of State to list him as a candidate on the presidential primary ballot.”
So four unelected people in Black Robes have decided on their own that Trump is Guilty of Insurrection. Based on their Political beliefs, and the J6 Committee Hearings as if that was a real trial this is what these four black robed fools said.
“We conclude that the foregoing evidence, the great bulk of which was undisputed at trial, established that President Trump engaged in insurrection,” the majority wrote. “We do not reach these conclusions lightly,” the majority wrote. “We are mindful of the magnitude and weight of the questions now before us. We are likewise mindful of our solemn duty to apply the law, without fear or favor, and without being swayed by public reaction to the decisions that the law mandates we reach.”
The really sad thing is these people have reached the highest level of the Judicial System. Anyone who sits on a Supreme Court of any State are supposedly the best Legal Minds in that State. These people are the ones we turn to to decide the disputes over our most complicated Legal issues. When all other avenues to a legal dispute have been pursued these 50 Courts are 99.9% of the time the last stop, the final say. They are supposed to be comprised of people with the greatest Wisdom and depth of Legal Knowledge to render a Final Decisions on every matter under the Law. They hold these positions for life.
Yet this is the nonsense that these four fools have “Judged” to be the Final Word on whether or not Donald J Trump is eligible to be on the Ballot for a Primary, let alone the General Election for the Presidency. “We conclude that the foregoing evidence, the great bulk of which was undisputed at trial, established that President Trump engaged in insurrection,”. There has been No Trial, there has been No Conviction, there has not even been any Charges brought against Donald J Trump for Insurrection. These four fools have decided that one man can not run for anything, ever.
What they claim is that the Constitution says he can’t based on the 14th Amendment. Except I find it hard to believe that any of these fools have even read the Amendment. If you are going to base something on the Constitution, which is the sole purpose of the Judicial system maybe you should read what it says.
14th Amendment
Section 1
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Section 2
Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice-President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State.
Section 3
No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.
Section 4
The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.
Section 5
The Congress shall have the power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.
That is the Amendment in full. Not just Section 3 that they are trying to twist to meet their needs. The 14th Amendment was written as part of a package of laws to address the reformation of the United States after the American Civil War. It was adopted on July 9, 1868, as one of the Reconstruction Amendments, the defeated Confederate States, were forced to ratify it in order to regain representation into the Congress. The purpose of the Amendment was to redress the Rights of people formally held as Slaves, and restrict the Rights of those who fought to keep them Slaves.
The 14th Amendment is one of the most litigated Amendments in the Constitution. It was used in decisions such as Brown v. Board of Education (1954) regarding racial segregation, Roe v. Wade (1973) regarding abortion (overturned in 2022), Bush v. Gore (2000) regarding the 2000 presidential election, Obergefell v. Hodges (2015) regarding same-sex marriage, and Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard regarding race-based college admissions. The Law has been the basis of numerous legal decisions both good and bad.
It is once again being used to try and force another bad decision into Law. The four fools and the majority of pundits on the left are pushing the narrative that this Amendment bars Trump from ever running for anything. They say it applies to him due to the following section.
Section 3 Disqualification from Holding Office
No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.
The fact that none of that applies to a President is irrelevant. The courts constantly deny what is actually written in the Constitution, while at the same time seeing other things that are nowhere to be found in the Constitution. If you read that section it clearly lists who it applies to, it leaves no doubt. Yet they insist it also covers the Presidency. I ask where, and how?
When you ask that question the response you get is usually a blank look, if however you happen to find a clown willing to give you an explanation they basically say that since it lists so many elected and appointed government offices that it must also cover the Presidency. Assumptions like that are what cause bad law to be adopted. It happens, which is why Law’s like Roe v Wade, and Dred Scott v. Sandford are created only to eventually be revisited and overturned. Politics quite often tries and does influence Judicial Decisions.
The one thing no one can explain is how any of it applies to Donald J Trump. To repeat: There has been No Trial, there has been No Conviction, there have been No Charges brought against Donald J Trump for Insurrection. These four fools insist they can apply Penalties under the Color of Law to a man without Due Process of the Law, to do so also defies Section 1 of the 14th Amendment.
Section 1
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Where is Donald J Trumps Equal Protection under the Law? How can these four fools enforce a Law against a man who has not been Convicted? On what grounds are they denying the People the Right to choose whether or not any person can vote for him?
This Court claims it is defending Democracy by eliminating the Democratic Process. How does that work?
The peanut gallery is even outraged over this as reported in American Pravda, excuse me. I mean The Washington Post:
Vivek Ramaswamy, who is running against Trump for the Republican nomination, said in a statement to The Washington Post: “I pledge to withdraw from the Colorado GOP primary ballot until Trump is also allowed to be on the ballot, and I demand that Ron DeSantis, Chris Christie, and Nikki Haley to do the same immediately — or else they are tacitly endorsing this illegal maneuver which will have disastrous consequences for our country.”
“I do not believe Donald Trump should be prevented from being president of the United States by any court,” Christie told a crowd on Tuesday at a New Hampshire town hall. “I think it’s bad for the country,” if that happens, and “I think it would cause a lot of anger” if that choice was taken away, he said.
Christie said he had not read the decision, but said it was inappropriate to punish Trump for inciting an insurrection on Jan. 6 without having a criminal trial on that matter.
This case is being fast-tracked into one of the .01% of cases heard by SCOTUS. They will have the Final Legal say as to whether or not a State can prevent a Non-Convicted Man from being on an Electoral Ballot.
The Left is frightened to death that Donald J Trump will win the Presidency. They are using the Judicial System to not just slander and stain his reputation, they want to use it to prevent the People from being allowed the choice to vote or not vote for him. They don’t trust that the people are believing the lies that they have been spewing anymore.
The Courts have no Right to deny an innocent man anything, and all men are innocent until proven Guilty. If you want to penalize Trump for Insurrection charge him, put him on trial, and get a conviction. You can not deny ANY American Due Process, even if his name is Donald J Trump.
