  1. Citizens Group in Colorado brought the charge, not the Court.

  2. Moderates Unite, time to save America from both extremes, let's tell them to shut up.

  3. Section 3 of Amendment does not require a charge or conviction, there's even precedent in New Mexico from Civil War.

  4. Citizens of Colorado had a legal right to bring this charge and did. The issue is the court made a partisan ruling which is being challenged.

  5. If you Google this case you get ten pages of one-sided rhetorical articles from the MSM and even feeds like this with very little fact. We are presented first with emotional reaction, then fact. How many know the name of the citizens group who brought the charge to Colorado, or whether bringing that charge is legal in other States. How many know the citizens group lost their case in lower court and had to appeal .

  6. Colorado allows for a citizen to bring a constitutional charge to court, and did, lower court found against the group who brought the charge, but they appealed and won. Trump was charged and found guilty of insurrection by Colorado Supreme Court. Not every State allows this. The "citizen" in the case must be a registered Republican or unaffiliated voter since the case is against the RNC in Colorado.

  13. Trump lost Colorado by 13 points

  15. GOP best option is to Caucus, they're already working on it. Issue is the general, not the primary.

  16. No, that is disallowed, too. GOP will go to caucus, then the next challenge is the general election

  17. GOP will more likely go to caucus, then the battle will be over the general election. Better to get it decided now.

  18. Petition was brought to court by Republicans, required for standing in Colorado.

  19. Yes, but the vote will not be counted. The lawsuit is against the Secretary of State, and they will now not count the write-in for for Trump.

  20. Republicans petitioned the court in Colorado, required for legal standing, so those who say they don't, that's incorrect.

  21. Republicans brought the petition to court, required for standing in Colorado.

  22. Read the petition brought by Republicans. It's online, not "mere", but very compelling evidence, including tweets and photographs. Colorado law requires Republicans bring the petition against a Republican candidate in a primary.

  23. They can still vote for Trump, name will just not be on ballot. Trump's qualification can only be determined by both Houses of Congress, as written in the 3rd and 5th Section of the 14th Amendment.

  26.  @fleatactical7390  I think the court is in error, but everything was legal. Colorado law allows Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington to file the insurrection charge, a lower court ruled against them only because "President" was not written into the 14th Amendment, but the higher court "interpreted" the amendment to include the President. The elected Secretary of State in Michigan, a Democrat, agrees with us, no standing. Even my governour, Gavin Newsom, doesn't think Trump should be taken off the ballot. I've been reading comments on different platforms, the real danger to our democracy is from those unwilling to use the tools at hand to research facts, and instead feed on the emotional high of social clicks. I wrote some of the first HTML code for HTTP in 1993/4. I thought people would be hungry for facts, but I was wrong, they are satisfying a very different appetite.

  27.  @bryang9290  "The 4-3 decision by Colorado's higher court was made in response to a lawsuit filed in September, Anderson v. Griswold, which argued that Trump should be disqualified as a candidate under the basis of the Fourteenth Amendment. Section 3 of the amendment states that anyone who "engaged in insurrection or rebellion" against the US Constitution cannot hold office. The lawsuit's petitioners include six people: Norma Anderson, Michelle Priola, Claudine Cmarada, Krista Kafer, Kathi Wright, and Christopher Castilian. All but two of the petitioners are Republican voters, according to the lawsuit. Wright and Castilian are unaffiliated, the lawsuit said. That's per Colorado law, Donald Sherman told Business Insider. Sherman is the executive vice president of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), a watchdog group that helped file the lawsuit." - Business Insider
