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.

She is the Colorado SOS.
She misunderstands the concept of Democracy.
Or she is using it as a code word for "not democracy"

Progressives are some of the biggest hypocrites on the planet. What happened to saving “democracy?”

yeah lets have 50 state legislators, secretaries of state, and AGs able to disqualify a national candidate. And add about 300 federal judges. That works.

I have to disagree with " the voters should decide whos on the ballot". Because if you listen to fools, the mob rules.

Democracy leads to anarchy which ends in violence and people realizing they need laws to stop mob rule.

Unanimous. Can't blame those awful Trump appointees this time.

Really, Dems do not believe in rule of law.

FWIW, 60-70 years ago, they’d all have been patients in state asylums for the insane. Not joking either.

How could USSC strip the states of an authority they never had?

In the interest of Democracy, the Democratic operatives who didn’t get what they wanted with a SCOTUS ruling now believe the court should be dissolved.

I wonder if even the satire from the Bee can keep up with these people.

What dopes.

The Court cannot be dissolved. The Congress has the power to decide it’s makeup and jurisdiction. But that’s not gonna happen.

Sour grapes losers.
