    I already did. Trump won the two impeachment efforts. since he was not removed in either case, your side LOST. end of story. and I expect the GOP do to the same stupid thing to the next democrat -especially if they have both houses. Biden is certainly more deserving of removal than Trump was but Harris would be a bigger FUBAR administration than what we currently have

    OTOH..... those that are complacent , don't seem to fully realize the danger he poses to democracy and the country. They might believe that the guardrails in place will hold. That is likely a false sense of security .
    He already controls the R party, and is influencing the legal system on many levels .This is just the beginning.

    sorry, but I saw them on TV and heard them. Maybe they are the crazy fringes of his supporters, but they get attention.

    Who is them. I've never heard anyone claim they heard someone say Trump was a deity. Not here or anywhere else.
    If they did it would be blasted on every leftist media channel and played over and over for years.
    There would be a youtube video of it posted a thousand times

    The ignorance of people saying he obviously did not support an insurrection are dangerous to the nation

    He had a hearing in front of a court. Was entitled to call witnesses, and cross examine those called by the plaintiffs.

    Of course he had due process.

    He has never been charged with insurrection. You assert it without charges. They threw him off the ballot without charges. You assert it and assume that makes it true. That is not the rule of law.

    Nope. He was impeached both times. That’s like saying someone wasn’t indicted for their crimes. In the same way that a grand jury decided that there was enough evidence for him to stand trial for his criminal actions, so too did a majority of the House determine that he should stand trial for his ‘high crimes’. That’s a stain he can never remove, as much as he tried to…

    2018 - Republicans lost control of the House
    2020 - Trump lost the election to Biden
    2020 - Republicans lost control of the Senate
    2022 - Expected "Red Wave" in Congressional elections failed to materialize resulting in Democrats maintaining control of the Senate and the Republican majority in the House is extremely small

    Trump has been indicted 4 times on 91 charges. He has been found liable for defamation and sexual assault. He has been found liable for fraud.

    Yeah, you guys just keep on winning. You tired of all the winning yet?

    Interesting to see the Left using all the fascist tactic's that they accuse the Right in order to steal an election.

    1. January 6th was not an Insurrection.
    2. Trump was not part of storming the Capital.
    3. Trump has never been charged with Insurrection let alone be convicted of it. Have we become some Banana Republic where we convict a person of a crime before even charging them?
    4. Has the Left forgot that we are a Republic which grants rights to the minority to have a voice in our government?

    Like they taught us in typing "Now is the time for all good men and woman to come to the aid of their country." The Radical Left needs to be reminded that "you shall reap what you shall sow." If Trump is removed from the ballots of the blue states what is to keep the red states from removing Biden from the ballots of their states.?
    Biden has refused to protect our borders and we now have millions of illegal aliens running around our country. Is this not a dereliction of duty? Biden is under "inquiry for impeachment", isn't that good enough to keep him off the ballot ? After all, using the Lefts criterion for removal all we need is accusations. Wake up America and stop the Woke -key wonkiness that has permeated our country.

    Yet the majority of justices in Colorado DID support that he was an insurrectionist. Thats how this works in a democracy and in the highest courts in the America. Thats why the SC isnt just one justice.

    The US SC may strike it down, but remember, the burden of reversing that court is much stronger than “no we dont think he did that”. Honestly, I think it’s 50-50 in the US Supreme Court. And remember, the US SC will have to tell you exactly WHY they are going to review it, and then rule ONLY on that reason, AND, if that reason violated a rigth Trump may or may not have…. This one will be very sticky for the court…very sticky…

    Since when does the will of Four leftist Judges have a right to overturn the will of the voters? You are not a Democracy or a Republic if the minority opinion is trampled on and not allowed to speak. This opinion delegitimizes the outcome of any election result, no matter who the winner is, if a whole group of legitimate voters are denied the right to vote for their candidate on the whim of four judges.

    Exactly how does this decision "overturn the will of the voters"?
    Are people not allowed to campaign for Trump?
    Are people not allowed to write in his name if it isn't pre printed on the ballot?

    How, exactly, are they not allowed to speak?

    Are people being denied their "right to vote for their candidate" if their candidate is not qualified to be President? Someone under 35 or not a natural born citizen.

    The Colorado Supreme Court ruling dealt with the Republican Primary. That Trump couldn't appear on the GOP primary ballot. As a result, republicans may go to a caucus in Colorado bypassing the state altogether.


    https://www.aol.com/colorado-gop-discussing-switching-caucus-204453488.html


    Caucuses are private events and are financed and organized by the political party. They aren’t organized and financed by the state as primaries are. The political party sets the rules and requirements, not the state. The state has nothing to do with caucuses as they're private events.

    Perhaps your grey matter is turning red or even black. What four judges in Colorado is not a great day for the state or the country. It is a sickness that this country needs to eradicate, and soon, if they wish to remain a Republic with a Constitution that protects the rights of all. When people hang someone, without a trial or conviction by their peers, that's called a lynch mob.

    Since when did self-proclaimed conservatives discard the Constitution?

    Except that Trump has lost all his court cases to overturn the results.

    59 failures.

    So why have several MAGA been condemned for sedition?

    Did he ever encourage his supporters to go and force Pence to desertify the results?

    That doesn't justify your attempts to disfranchise the voices of millions of liberals and moderates who make political choices other than yours.
