    This is the absolute worst troll argument from someone completely uninformed or intentionally misrepresenting things.

    Colorado’s ruling is following the Constitution. Amendment 14, section 3. It very, very, very clearly states that if you do what Trump very much did by attempting to overturn a legally sanctioned election.

    From the Constitution:

    No person shall … hold any office, civil or military, under the United States … who, having previously taken an oath … as an officer of the United States … to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion.

    It’s clear as day. Which is why the legal experts in Colorado had the balls to move forward and force Trump to adhere to the constitution that he swore an oath to uphold.

    They’re the only state with the balls right now. Everyone else is worried about retaliation and escalation from fuckheads like you.
