Supreme Court ‘Must Be Dissolved’: Liberals Melt Down over Ruling that States Can’t Disqualify Trump from Ballots
Breitbart ^ | 03/04/2024 | KRISTINA WONG

Posted on 03/04/2024 10:46:21 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Progressives bashed the Supreme Court’s unanimous ruling that states could not disqualify former President Donald Trump from appearing on the 2024 presidential ballot, with some even suggesting that the court be “dissolved.”

In a historic ruling, the Supreme Court said only Congress can disqualify a federal candidate from the ballot using the Fourteenth Amendment’s “Insurrection Clause.” The ruling — which comes right before Super Tuesday — overturned a 4-3 opinion from the Colorado Supreme Court in December that banned Trump from appearing on the ballot.

Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold (D-CO) said in a post on X she was “disappointed”: I am disappointed in the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision stripping states of the authority to enforce Section 3 of the 14th Amendment for federal candidates. Colorado should be able to bar oath-breaking insurrections [sic] from our ballot.

They need to screen these people better as someone with her viewpoint should never be Secretary of State. Same can be said of Hillary

Sure they’re progressives, progressing towards communism and fascism.

Roberts wanted a 9-0 decision on this, so they very narrowly ruled on whether states could take Trump off the ballot, and didn’t touch the question of whether there was insurrection.

And these are the same idiots that are fear mongering and spreading lies that Trump is a dictator. The left wants to rule as dictators

“These people are so deficient that I do not want to associate with them anymore. They are not my countrymen. They hate me and I hate them more. Bring on the national divorce. And if fighting is needed to solve this, lets get it started.”

You and I are angry over this.

Now image how southern families of the founding fathers felt after the disaster at Appomattox, disenfranchisement of the men of those families, and economic exploitation by carpetbag rule.

Not to mention the killing of a high percent of the southern population.

Following this, southerners turned toward nocturnal disobedience (which I denounce in the strongest possible terms) of certain carpetbag rules regulating conduct.

I hope this does not happen again requiring yet another formal denouncement.

Fist do the FBI, then maybe we’ll consider some of our other ‘esteemed’ institutions.

Which is why I have consistently argued with whiney RINOs and squishy fake conservative FReepers that “ working across the aisle” or compromising with them is impossible.

Their “progressive” movement is appropriately named in one respect. Like cancer, Leftism is a “progressive” disease ... a disease that must be contained or destroyed lest it kill the healthy areas of the host.

The beady eyed communist fanatics who kicked Trump off the ballot on the false charge of insurrection need to be shamed, disbarred and persecuted for sedition. Their abuse of the legal system is intolerable.

LIBs/Lefties are pathetic self-loathing losers. Unfortunately, because they are so weak and ineffective they won’t just end it and call it a day.

Their self-hatred is so great that they are clinically insane.

The liberal justices must have realized that Biden could be removed from the ballot in a dozen or more states if they upheld it and voted accordingly.
