If communists/globalists get to decide who competes in republican primaries, do republicans get to decide who competes in communist/globalist primaries?
This from frontpagemag.com.
Or is this another one of those “the rules only apply when they favor our team” things?
The Colorado Supreme Court on Tuesday ordered President Trump to be barred from the state’s 2024 presidential ballot under a Civil War-era insurrection clause, in a historic ruling certain to be promptly appealed to the nation’s highest court…
In the court’s 4-3 decision, Justices Monica Márquez, William Hood, Richard Gabriel, and Melissa Hart made up the majority, while Chief Justice Brian Boatright and Justices Carlos Samour and Maria Berkenkotter dissented. All seven justices on the state Supreme Court were appointed by [communist/globalist] governors.
The case is headed post-haste to the U.S. Supreme Court with the intended aim of further poisoning the process.
REVIEW:
– The disqualification clause is a Civil War relic which, like a lot of unconstitutional measures from that era, is a disaster that was mostly ignored.
– It is open-ended enough that it can be applied widely, much like the Insurrection Act which should have been, but was not invoked in response to the BLM riots.
– [Communists/Globalists] can apply it to Trump and republicans can apply it to… anyone who supports riots and opposition to the Constitution or the United States government.
According to the Colorado justices:
– Section Three does not determine who decides whether the disqualification has attached in the first place,
– [T]he Colorado legislature has established a process—a court proceeding pursuant to section 1-1-113—to make the determination whether a candidate is qualified to be placed on the presidential 60 primary ballot, and
– [F]or the reasons we have already explained, that process is sufficient to permit a judicial determination of whether Section Three disqualification has attached to a particular individual.
NOTE: If communist/globalist state courts and legislatures can prevent republicans from appearing on the ballot, republican legislatures and courts can prevent communists/globalists from appearing on the ballot.
The Colorado radical left somehow think this would not possibly apply to them. Why not?
Any supporter of BLM can be classified by state legislatures as an insurrectionist and then blocked from the ballot. That includes Biden and Kamala.
And:
In, say Georgia, it would include Senators Warnock and Ossoff.
Now, this ruling will not stand, but it would be more educational for the Left if republican states would start putting the wheels into motion to demonstrate to the Left just how terrible of an idea it is. Imagine these radical leftists soon cursing the day they ever thought of such an intense, partisan idea.
And, relying on The Supremes “whose only reliable conservatives are two men in their seventies to bail out the rule of law” and whose conservative majority is as certain as the direction the wind is blowing from one day to the next is not at all defensive and preventive.
Tell the mob, ‘sorry folks, your own justices have determined that any state legislature can decide who is disqualified for federal office.’
Then tell them, ‘Now it’s our turn, assholes.’
In tit-for-tat fashion, insurrectionists and their supporters who:
[S]hall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof do not qualify.
Final thought: If the Republican Party was not tainted by their excessive number of RINOs and if the true Conservatives would get mean and fight dirty, they would be able to effectively play tit-for-tat politics.
