This "legal challenge" should be thrown out immediately for making this preposterous claim:

Petitioner has also been a member of the Florida Bar since 1984, the State Bar of California since 1985, the Oregon State Bar since 1997, and is currently a member of the U.S. Tax Court, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals and the United States Supreme Court.

SCOTUS has 9 members, not one million.

This is the objective of the persistent state-run persecution of Trump. The leaders of the Democrat/Communist Party damn-well know all of these charges and indictments are not legally sound and will ultimately go nowhere. Instead, what Democrat/Communist Party leaders are attempting to pull off is to provide states -- especially RINO-governed red states with Trump-hating political leaders -- with a reason (valid or not) to remove Trump from the ballot in both the primary election and in the general election.

Democrat/Communist Party leaders have come to realize that with Trump's growing popularity -- including among portions of the Democrat/Communist Party's base, which scares the hell out of them -- cheating alone will likely not carry them to victory. Their plan now is to supplement cheating (which Democrat/Communists excel at) with eliminating the strongest competitor ... by first attempting to eliminate Trump by removing him from the ballot, then, if that's not enough, by eliminating Trump by any means possible which, in the minds of Democrat/Communists when their iron-fisted power is threatened, can mean anything ... and I do mean anything ... by any way and at any cost possible.

Right after another major shift towards Trump in Florida. I just pray the judges are straight.

Some judges may be loony enough to rule in favor. Dem or RINO.

‘I believe this strategy will be effective and that Trump will not be on the ballot in November 2024.’

perhaps; personally, I believe any pub would lose in 2024, as I think their ceiling is 70 million votes, and I have no reason to think the 159 million turnout of 2020 would be any less...

the lousy electoral system we have has never been more evident; two men averaging 80 years of age, neither of whom have the approval of 40 percent of the electorate, and nobody seems to have any idea of how to replace both of them on the ballots...but should Trump be ousted on the ballot it will be interesting to see a third party run; after all, if he thinks he can win, why would he care about the letter after his name...?

if he shuns a third party try, that’s tantamount to an admission he can’t win...

“No standing.”

When has this stopped them?

Only anticommunist issues have no standing. There are no legal checks and balances against the communist party agenda.

Bingo...

We may go through the useless motions, but there will never be a real election in this country again. There will never be a “true” Republican President again even if it appears the play script allowed for one to be elected.

The odds are over 160 million to one Trump will be elected. And if he is both parties will tie his hands so tight he will not be able to do one thing positive. Or they will kill him...

It is over, the Frog has done being boiled. And until we address this reality and accept our own denial nothing productive will ever get done.

“We the People will write him in.”

Some states do not accept this. And those that do will illegally throw them away as “spoiled” ballots.

They already have a plan for this problem if it arises.

We keep expecting them to play by the rules. Reality is they never have and never will.

Applies only to former Confederates who wanted to run for federal office in the post Civil War era.

“We keep expecting them to play by the rules. Reality is they never have and never will.”

Exactly. They are lawless and they are extremely well-organized and well-funded. And our side continually and consistently underestimates our enemies... a recipe for perpetual failure.

Who gives a flying monkey-turd what you "believe?"

Your devotion to Trump has turned you from a former believer in freedom, to a tyrant that refuses to tolerate anyone who offers a single non-compliant thought.
