US Supreme Court Justices Have “Strange” Views on Whether Trump is Disqualified
As an observer of the US Supreme Court’s recent oral arguments on whether former President Donald Trump should be disqualified from the ballot, I couldn’t help but notice the “strange” views expressed by some of the justices. While I understand that this topic is one of national significance, the case at hand pertains specifically to Colorado, making it a matter of Colorado’s prerogative to decide on the eligibility of candidates.
The Constitution grants states the right and duty to conduct their own elections, including determining the criteria for appearing on the ballot.… Continue reading
As I sat glued to the live oral arguments of the Supreme Court, I couldn’t help but feel a wave of nausea wash over me. The way these politicians manipulated the law, twisting and contorting it to suit their own agendas, was truly sickening. Whatever happened to the ideal of leaving things up to the states? Colorado Republicans made a decision that they simply didn’t want Trump on the ballot, and now they are trying to justify their actions under the guise of upholding states’ rights.
It’s ironic how these same politicians who claim to defend the right of states to choose how to handle issues like abortion are suddenly switching sides the moment a state chooses something they disagree with.… Continue reading
‘Oath-breaking insurrectionist’ Trump is ineligible for office, Colorado voters tell the Supreme Court
It’s a headline that many of us thought we would never see, but it seems that there may finally be some justice on the horizon. Colorado voters have taken a stand and told the Supreme Court that former President Donald Trump is ineligible for office due to his involvement in the insurrection that took place on January 6, 2021.
When I first heard the news, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief. Finally, someone is holding Trump accountable for his actions. The events of January 6 were a dark day in American history, and it is clear that Trump played a significant role in inciting the violence that unfolded at the Capitol.… Continue reading
Colorado voters seeking to disqualify Trump from the ballot are making a bold and necessary move. As responsible and patriotic citizens, they are doing their civic duty to clean up the mess created by the former president. The stain on US history is not simply Trump’s presidency itself, but his actions that led to the events of January 6.
Many argue that the 14th Amendment should be invoked to bar Trump from running for office again. If the Supreme Court rules against him, it will send a strong message that the Constitution is not to be undermined for political gain. On the other hand, if they rule in his favor, it would confirm the perception that the court has become another political arm.… Continue reading
In the wake of the recent controversy surrounding the legality of former President Donald Trump running for office again, I have found myself deeply engaged in reflection and analysis of the situation. The idea that barring Trump’s return to politics is anti-democratic is a sentiment that has pervaded our political discourse. However, after careful consideration, I submit a different notion: Barring Trump from running for office is not anti-democratic, but rather a necessity to protect democracy itself.
The foundation of my stance lies in the understanding of the Constitution, specifically Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. This provision prohibits any person who has engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof, from holding office.… Continue reading
