Trump Derangement Syndrome became Orwellian with the recent ruling of the Colorado Supreme Court.
It approved the erasure of Trump from the Republican primary ballot in Colorado, by invoking Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.
That ossified clause was intended to bar any ante-bellum federal officials who joined the Confederacy from again holding federal offices after 1865.
In no way is Trump’s conduct on January 6 comparable to calling for secession, much less prompting a Civil War that cost the country 700,000 lives.
An “insurrectionist” president does not address unarmed protestors with qualifiers like, “I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.”
How also can one be guilty of insurrection without ever being indicted for such a supposed crime, much less convicted of it?
And the more we learn about January 6, all the more it appears to have been a spontaneous riot, more buffoonish in nature than conspiratorial.
No one has explained the mysterious, politicized January 6 refusal of the Speaker of the House to order a reinforcement of the Capitol police.
Or the FBI stonewalling about its informants in the crowd.
Or the revealing admissions of New York Times reporter Matthew Rosenberg (“a ton of FBI informants among the people who attacked the Capitol”).
Or the warped composition and conduct of the January 6 congressional committee.
Or the months-long official disinformation surrounding the number and circumstances of those who died that day.
That day’s illegality in terms of violence and death paled in comparison to the largely excused and exempted 120 days of summer violence in 2020, when Antifa and BLM engineered riots, arson, and death.
Their planned violence accounted for 35 or so killed, and more than 1,500 injured police officers.

If people cannot see how corrupt the democRATs are now then they are truly blind. I think many see it, but don’t care.
Weaponized lawyers and judges have forfeited their right to life.
It wasn't a riot.
It wasn't spontaneous.
It was orchestrated by Pelosi and the FBI. It was a diversion to protect the stolen election. The Democrats needed it, so it happened.
Agree. No safe harbor for Marxist activists.
Ditto
I would personally add to that sentence any law enforcement officer who ignores portions of or shows total disregard for the Constitution and commits illegal acts of “doing my job” of enforcing tyranny upon the populace.

“What is absolutely wild about the Colorado Supreme Court
opinion is that they failed to include a “limiting principle.”
Republicans should immediately file suit in Colorado
<><>to remove Joe Biden from the ballot,
<><>citing his failure to secure the border
<><>and for allowing an invasion.
“Allowing an invasion” falls within the Court’s removal
of Trump based on a broad definition of “engaging in insurrection.”
They are too busy watching Tik Tok videos and watching meaningless shows and fake news.
VDH is a well meaning, clueless, pseudo egghead who still wants to fight by the rules.
Here’s the good news: the commie totalitarian cabal attempting to overthrow the government is using the same tactics as the sexual weirdo/pervert community. This Colorado Court gave us the first big hint - using activist judges to create laws - laws contrary to the Constitution.
I keep reminding Democrats that the Democrat Oligarchs select THEIR candidate for president. The Democrat Oligarchs screwed Bernie Sanders and put Hillary in. Now they have screwed Democrats opposing Biden by cancelling Florida primary election. Now the Democrat Oligarchs are trying to rig the General election with law fare.
As long as they can have all the abortions they want,then it doesn’t matter to them. They think taking Trump off the ballot is democracy. I don’t think they even have a basic understanding of what democracy is. It’s sickening and just bizarre.
Never seen it before in the history of our country...
But we have seen it before, haven’t we.
Deep State makes George III and his Parliament look like pikers.
VDH ping
They have no such "morality."
People who do not believe in God do not believe in the rules or morality set forth by God. If there is no God, there is no penalty for doing whatever you want.
People on the Left believe that anything--any kind of behavior--is justified by their ideology (their ideology is their "religion"). They plan to win at all costs.
All of the lawfare is ridiculous from a legal standpoint.
J6: Trump was going to legally win that day. Through the process of objecting to the state’s electors for a few states and then voting on them. What is different is that each state only receives one vote. And the Republicans controlled more states. The democrats had to stop that at all costs. Pelosi used the breach to send it into emergency session where no objections were permitted. Thus completing the steal.
The elite are willing to start a civil war to stop Trump.
The SCOTUS knows this, and are in the position where anything they do will be wrong.
A question needs to be asked is why the burning hatred and fear.
Actually we have seen it many times in history.
First one I remember was the MSM attack on General Patton.
We DO know that key members of the FDR admin were communists.
Patton was clearly anti communist and had to be removed.
If he had survived the war, his plan was to expose the State Dept collusion with Russia.
Reagan during Iran-Contra.
Reagan was highly popular and the MSM was having no luck destroying him.
They managed to damage him with Iran-Contra so the country would move left.
Will red-state courts now respond by erasing Joe Biden from their ballots on grounds that he is “guilty” of insurrectionary activity—by deliberately destroying the southern border, undermining U.S. security, sabotaging federal immigration law, and violating his oath of office?
Will some states remove Vice President Kamala Harris from their 2024 ballots on grounds that in 2020 she deliberately incited insurrectionary protestors who had been engaged in riot, arson, looting, violent assaults on police, and attacks on federal properties?
Probably not - we try to play by the rules …
‘Democracy was only meant for a moral and religious people’
The Democrat/Communist Party will not -- they can not -- "allow" the American people to re-elect Trump as he will set the Democrat/Communist Party's truly evil objective back at least a decade.
Be advised: The Democrat/Communists and their massive cult of followers will do whatever it takes -- whatever it takes to stop Trump's pending re-election. Know that things are going to get very dicey very quickly once the Left realizes they have not only failed -- again! -- to stop Trump; by their actions they have actually invigorated Trump's re-election -- again!
