What did the liberals in charge of Colorado think would happen?
Of course, President Trump is fighting back.
He’s not going to lay down and accept that he was being removed from the ballot without cause!
The Associated Press writes:
President Donald Trump on Wednesday asked the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn a ruling barring him from the Colorado ballot, setting up a high-stakes showdown over whether a constitutional provision prohibiting those who “engaged in insurrection” will end his political career.
Trump appealed a 4-3 ruling in December by the Colorado Supreme Court that marked the first time in history that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment was used to bar a presidential contender from the ballot. The court found that Trump’s role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol disqualified him under the clause.
The provision has been used so sparingly in American history that the U.S. Supreme Court has never ruled on it.
“The Colorado Supreme Court decision would unconstitutionally disenfranchise millions of voters in Colorado and likely be used as a template to disenfranchise tens of millions of voters nationwide,” Trump’s lawyers wrote in their appeal to the nation’s highest court, noting that Maine has already followed Colorado’s lead.
The article concludes with stating:
The issue of whether Trump can be on the ballot is not the only matter related to the former president or Jan. 6 that has reached the high court. The justices last month declined a request from special counsel Jack Smith to swiftly take up and rule on Trump’s claims that he is immune from prosecution in a case charging him with plotting to overturn the presidential election, though the issue could be back before the court soon depending on the ruling of a Washington-based appeals court.
And the court has said that it intends to hear an appeal that could upend hundreds of charges stemming from the Capitol riot, including against Trump.
It could upend hundreds of Jan. 6 charges. Wouldn’t the Democrats love that?
Trump is BACK on the ballot in Colorado.
The insane liberal Secretary of State, Jena Grisworld, has declared.
She probably realized how much fundraising would be going on for the GOP with this ruling and wanted to stop it.

Remember what I said about this in my last article. We should find out who’s behind the push to remove Trump from the ballot.
I wonder who it could be.
