Colorado has the right to run the election in their state.
You left out this super-important part of the 14th....J. Michael Luttig is a former federal judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit.
Laurence H. Tribe is the Carl M. Loeb University Professor of Constitutional Law Emeritus at Harvard University.
The only question is whether American citizens today can uphold that commitment.
As students of the United States Constitution for many decades—one of us as a U.S. Court of Appeals judge, the other as a professor of constitutional law, and both as constitutional advocates, scholars, and practitioners—we long ago came to the conclusion that the Fourteenth Amendment, the amendment ratified in 1868 that represents our nation’s second founding and a new birth of freedom, contains within it a protection against the dissolution of the republic by a treasonous president.
This protection, embodied in the amendment’s often-overlooked Section 3, automatically excludes from future office and position of power in the United States government—and also from any equivalent office and position of power in the sovereign states and their subdivisions—any person who has taken an oath to support and defend our Constitution and thereafter rebels against that sacred charter, either through overt insurrection or by giving aid or comfort to the Constitution’s enemies.
The historically unprecedented federal and state indictments of former President Donald Trump have prompted many to ask whether his conviction pursuant to any or all of these indictments would be either necessary or sufficient to deny him the office of the presidency in 2024.
Trump Is Constitutionally Prohibited From the Presidency
I agree with Luttig and Tribe. Section 3 of the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution seem clear to me! What will SCOTUS do? What do you think?
I don’t know that it does...but it should.J. Michael Luttig is a former federal judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit.

Are you talking about the democrat judges in Colorado? Every one of them was picked by democrats. I do agree that they need to be flushed.Don't know, don't care. every single justice on the court is hopelessly compromised. The only way to restore any faith in their impartiality is to flush and start over.
OP's mind works on the level of an 8 year old. My apologies to all 8 year olds the world over.J. Michael Luttig is a former federal judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit.

Screw you. It was a decision by the Colorado Supreme Court. Now, going to be heard by the US Supreme Court. It had best be heard quick. If Trump is found guilty, and the Supremes have to take that into account, they will (being the original constructionist, they are) rule him not eligible. It is as simple as that, and a lot depend on what happens first, trial or Supremes hearing the appeal first or the trial being first. If the Supremes uphold the judgement (as nowhere in that amendment does it even mention conviction) he could still run. That is, if you can get 2/3 of the US House and 2/3 of the US Senate to overrule. Good luck to you and yours, Gomer.Delusional, keep on traitor.
No, screw you, traitor.Screw you. It was a decision by the Colorado Supreme Court. Now, going to be heard by the US Supreme Court. It had best be heard quick.

If Trump is found guilty of what? He hasn't even been charged with insurrection, Dumbass.Screw you. It was a decision by the Colorado Supreme Court. Now, going to be heard by the US Supreme Court.

Fat chance, getting that through their courts, but have fun! Sucker.Great! As I can think of about 40 red states who also have the right to run THEIR elections, and Biden will be off the ballot in every one of them.
Then in the future, there will never be another election where all 50 states agree to the same ballot on anything.
Most Progs are radicals and extremists. Most in power are the same or just follow the marching orders they get every day. Those judges were given their orders.Screw you.

Maybe Donny should not have tried to overthrow the election. Just a thought.Most Progs are radicals and extremists. Most in power are the same or just follow the marching orders they get every day. Those judges were given their orders.
They changed the law.It's impossible for Trump to be President. Either he was right and Kamala can throw out votes keeping Joe in office, or Trump was wrong and he attempted a coup and is disqualified from office.
No, I don;t live in CO, I don't have any say one their judges. I'm talking about the so-called supreme court. And not just selectively partisan. They all must go.Are you talking about the democrat judges in Colorado? Every one of them was picked by democrats. I do agree that they need to be flushed.
