If the SC rules that removing Trump from the ballot is unconstitutional, what would stop Colorado from doing it anyway?

The law means nothing to the lawless.

Supreme Court will fold on this if they review it. There’s already 4 votes to do it and Roberts will likely add the 5th vote.

Nothing. But, what if we figure a way to reject Colorado’s electors? Based on bullshit?

"what would stop Colorado from doing it anyway?"

Perhaps the USSC would then declare that Colorado was in violation of Federal law and its election of Federal officers is invalid, and void. Plus, Colorado's electoral votes are also therefore deemed invalid and cannot be cast.

The 14th amendment section 2 has a punishment for abridging the right to vote:

But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice-President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State.

The Constitutional punishment for preventing voters from voting for Electors of their choice in a state should be the direct loss of seats in the House of Representatives, and the indirect loss of Electors in the next election.

If the Colorado Supreme Court blocks President Trump from appearing on the ballot, they are denying the entire state the right to choose President Trump. It doesn't matter what polling suggests the actual vote would be, the entire state is denied the choice.

The 14th amendment should punish Colorado with the loss of their ENTIRE House delegation, and with it their Electoral College allocation, leaving Colorado with only the two Electors based on the Senate.
