DENVER (AP) — A divided Colorado Supreme Court on Tuesday declared former President Donald Trump ineligible for the White House under the U.S. Constitution’s insurrection clause and removed him from the state’s presidential primary ballot, setting up a likely showdown in the nation’s highest court to decide whether the front-runner for the GOP nomination can remain in the race.
This is a bad take.
It overvalues the republican narrative machine. What’s the alternative? Rolling over and letting him do whatever because we’re afraid of whatever lie he’ll choose to tell? Hard pass.
If several blue states do the same, he will lose the nomination or the RNC will have to change the rules to put him in as the nominee. There are more republicans living in California than there are in Texas, and if they can’t vote for Trump, they’ll have to vote for another clown, which gives one of them a fighting chance of beating Trump. Regressives are selfish - they won’t be able to resist infighting.
