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

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.

How does one strip a state of authority the state never had?

These people are unAmerican, insane, evil traitors to the country.

“WE’LL make all the decision from now on!” is essentially what they’re saying.

Influx of too many leftist ‘tards from commiefornia who left the state they screwed up to move here and do the same thing. Plus 3 cities control the entire state as happens in many western states.

Dissolving the Supreme Court would end our three branches of government republic and shred the Constitution which specifically created a Supreme Court. Without question many in the Democratic Party would have our country ruled by a single party with single candidate sham elections no different than Venezuela or Cuba.

You can't strip an authority from a State that they never had.

“The highest court in the land issued its decision per curiam, meaning that all nine justices agreed on a basic premise: Allowing a state to unilaterally take this kind of sweeping action would create chaos.”

The Democratic Party IS the party of CHAOS.
