RFK Jr. issues stark warning after Colorado court blocks Trump from ballot: 'Country will become ungovernable'
Fox News ^

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., who is running as an independent for president in 2024, issued a warning after Colorado’s Supreme Court blocked former President Donald Trump from the ballot because of his involvement in the attack on the Capitol in January 2021.

"If Trump is kept out of office through judicial fiat rather than being defeated in a fair election, his supporters will never accept the result. This country will become ungovernable," Kennedy, who initially launched a Democratic primary challenge to President Biden in April before switching to an independent 2024 bid in October, wrote on X.

"It’s time to trust the voters. It is up to the people to decide who the best candidate is. Not the courts. The people. That’s Democracy 101," Kennedy said. "When any candidate is deprived of his right to run, the American people are deprived of their right to choose."

I believe “will” has been misspelled. It should be “has”.

Ungovernable doesn’t sound so bad. I hate being “governed.”

Especially by traitors and those who think I am beneath them. They can all GF themselves.

“It’s time to trust the voters.”

Doing that would be a threat to democracy.

RFK JR could burn the political DC class to the ground. I hope he does.

It may be what they think they want.

Being near Christmas, I'm reminded of the scene from "Die Hard" where McClain has the terrorist at gunpoint.

The Left is like that terrorist: "You're a police man. There are rules for police men." Until there aren't. And appeals of "we're better than that" from simps or snakes on the take fall on deaf ears.

There was an article kvetching about the possibility one of the mockingbird websites, I think NBC. Clutching pearls about threats.

“”we’re better than that””

It doesn’t take much to be better than Hamass.

Neither side is likely to accept the coming election result if they lose.

Violence will begin next summer..,

If you subtract some windows broken by FBI/Antifa agents provocateur, the only cleanup required after this “attack” was mopping some footprints from the floor.

In mere days 10 or 29 states will ban Trump—Roberts will be silent and the Courts delay any ruling on this action until 2025. We are fast becoming a two class state—The Rich and Powerful (Aristocrats) who call all the shots, and The Lower class (Commoners) who mmust just take it—do what we are told by our betters. I do not see this changing for a while. But, when it does—it will change dramatically.

‘See the video where an aged patriot tries to pull back a window-breaker while shouts of “Fed” “Fed” “Fed” ring out?

He is, in turn, pulled back and disappears below the camera’s view...

:(
