Will Democrats face blowback for the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision to boot Donald Trump from the state’s primary ballot?

“A majority of the court holds that President Trump is disqualified from holding the office of President under Section Three of the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution,” the ruling said

“Because he is disqualified, it would be a wrongful act under the Election Code for the Colorado Secretary of State to list him as a candidate on the presidential primary ballot,” it added.

According to the New York Post, some Republican officials mulled booting Joe Biden off the ballot in their states to give “Democrats a taste of their own medicine.”

“Maybe we should take Joe Biden off the ballot in Texas for allowing 8 million people to cross the border since he’s been president, disrupting our state far more than anything anyone else has done in recent history,” Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick told Fox News’ Laura Ingraham Tuesday night.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis commented on the Colorado Supreme Court’s ruling while at a campaign event in Iowa.

“Could we just say that Biden can’t be on the ballot because he let in 8 million illegals into the country, and violated the Constitution?” he asked.

“What is absolutely wild about this opinion from the Colorado Supreme Court is that it contains no limiting principle. Republicans should immediately file suit in Colorado to remove Biden from the ballot, citing his failure to secure the border and allowing an invasion falls within the Court’s broad definition of ‘engaging in insurrection.’ Challenge this nonsense,” Jenna Ellis commented.

“If Colorado is taking Trump off the ballot, Florida and Texas should take Biden off the ballot Allowing 8M+ illegal aliens into America is the greatest form of insurrection See how slippery this slope gets?” DC Draino wrote.

“Every Republican state AG should be filing to remove Joe Biden from the ballot this morning… The insurrection and blood at the Southern border is on him,” political commentator Gunther Eagleman said.

The New York Post reports:

The Disqualification Clause in the 14th Amendment has never been successfully invoked against a major presidential contender in US history.

In its decision, the Colorado Supreme Court stayed the ruling until Jan. 4, 2024, allowing for a certain Supreme Court appeal.

“Unsurprisingly, the all-Democrat-appointed Colorado Supreme Court has ruled against President Trump, supporting a Soros-funded, left-wing group’s scheme to interfere in an election on behalf of Crooked Joe Biden,” Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung said in a lengthy statement.

“Democrat Party leaders are in a state of paranoia over the growing, dominant lead President Trump has amassed in the polls. They have lost faith in the failed Biden presidency and are now doing everything they can to stop the American voters from throwing them out of office next November,” he added.

“Colorado’s GOP primary contest was slated for March 5, 2024. Republicans in Colorado are considering switching to a caucus system if the court ruling is upheld,” the New York Post added.

The Colorado Republican Party’s statement came in response to Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy pledging to withdraw from the primary if the ruling stands.

“You won’t have to because we will withdraw from the Primary as a Party and convert to a pure caucus system if this is allowed to stand,” the Colorado Republican Party stated.
