Weird. It's a factual take.
What you take from it is up to you.
Trump needs to be beaten at the ballot box. These measures that probably get tossed aren't the way to go IMO.

It is odd that a common sense comment like this gets ridiculed as partisan.
So, now you're qualified to give legal opinions, Ryan?
Crazy Filthy Don has already been beaten many times, he loves to lose his shit.

Just read it. You don't have to be a legal scholar to figure it out.
For the millionth time I am not this Ryan dude.
What crimes do you feel should disqualify someone from running for office? If Trump "shot someone in the middle of 5th Ave", we know it wouldn't cost him any votes but should the voters decide his ultimate guilt?
This is how I explained Colorado and Maine's decision to my wife:
Parent: "Son, it's dangerous to play in traffic. You could sustain serious harm, even death."
Child: "But I want to play in traffic! [proceeds to play in traffic despite all the warnings]."
Parent: "That's it. You're grounded. No more traffic for you."
No matter how many times we [the sane public] try to tell Trump supporters he's bad for them, they just won't listen. Now the states will start grounding them one at a time.

Can you share a link? I've not found the affidavit yet.
ETA: found it.

These:
Constitutional requirements for presidential candidates
Candidates for president of the United States must meet basic requirements. Learn about the criteria to run for president.The U.S. Constitution states that the president must:
Be a natural-born citizen of the United States
Be at least 35 years old
Have been a resident of the United States for 14 years
He'd be guilty of murder and a felony and would be in jail.
Colorado decision most likely gets tossed.
Maine decision? Might be tossed by Maine SC and if not them probably the USSC.
So....if we end up with a Democrat Colorado SC getting it's decision tossed and the D Attorney General getting her decision tossed. What was gained by going this route?
Even the all D Colarado SC was split 4-3. It's not like there's a consensus on the 14th amendment angle.
Just seems like a questionable route to go IMO and overall might strengthen orange man in the end.

Parents are the dictators of their household. Really bad analogy.
Being a convicted murderer wouldn't necessarily take him off the ballot, right? You still didn't answer the question about what crime should disqualify a candidate.
It wasn't tossed. He's temporarily back on the ballot until the SC makes it's decision.
Oh, dougie, I see your lack of self awareness is still strong as ever.
You’re illiterate and a piece of shit. Do the world a favor and find a busy patch of I80 to convert into your personal playground.
Republicans are not cheering for Russia. So stupid.
It's weird that a lawyer has such a low opinion of the law.
I think they'll try to expedite the decision. First or second week of January is my bet.
It was not. And you really want us to trust your reading of a legal document, Ryan?
The decision was stayed until Jan 4th when it was announced.
The court stayed its decision until Jan. 4, or until the U.S. Supreme Court rules on the case. Colorado officials say the issue must be settled by Jan. 5, the deadline for the state to print its presidential primary ballots.

Colorado G.O.P. asks justices to review Trump ballot eligibility - SCOTUSblog
Lawyers for Colorado’s Republican Party came to the Supreme Court on Wednesday, asking the justices to overturn a ruling by that state’s highest court that would leave former President Donald Trump off Colorado’s primary ballot in 2024 because of his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attacks on the U.S. Cap

Several of them are filled with hubris, and simply don't care about their legitimacy. They are the law.
At this point, our democracy is ****ed regardless. Trump has made it abundantly clear he doesn’t believe in democracy and embraces a dictatorship and none of these demented ****s who still worship him care.
Might as well go scorched earth anyway possible. This is a cancer that has severely infected our once great Republic beyond repair.
God damn Trump and each and every single one of his supporters. They can’t die a miserable death soon enough.

Of course.
Weird how the makeup of the Colorado supreme court gets nary a mention in the MSM but the makeup of the SC will be front and center whenever they make a decision.
Trump is a liar, adulterer, failed businessman, narcissist, non-religious, twice divorced, porn star paying, military disparager, poor people hating, authoritarian lover, etc., etc., etc. He accomplished little beyond tax cuts and SCOTUS noms which any other republican would have done. Outside of that he caused chaos, broke laws, golfed, made fun of those who he didn’t like and constantly played the role of victim which is a big sign of weakness. Yet, a majority of conservatives rally around him and support him still. I just don’t get it. Why would anyone who really is conservative support him?
Thanks, it was already pointed out. I just heard it on the radio on a rock station. Sorry you couldn't keep up with switching accounts back and forth to catch someone else letting me know the exact same thing you said 15 min ago.It was not. And you really want us to trust your reading of a legal document, Ryan?

Correct, but if trump is elected, it will be too late for any of us to cheer for Ukraine.
You don't pay attention, then.
For the maga cult, he gives a sense of righteousness to their racist views.

Which words on page 5 are a political stunt? I don't think we read the same document.
Because at some point, for whatever reason(s), many conservatives decided to start acting like liberals and “getting back” at mean, unhinged dorks on the left became more important than upholding actual conservative values and principles that make our republic actually great.
When libs proposed policies based on feelings, Republicans responded with propping up Donald Trump—the most emotionally unhinged imbecile on the planet.
When it was the libs who couldn’t accept election results without melting down, 2020 Republicans said, “Hold my beer.”
And here we are. The Trump legacy. God bless America.
Ryan, you're really accusing me of having multiple accounts? Now that's funny right there.
What does any of that have to do with whether the Maine Attorney general should be tossing him from the ballot?
Those are great reasons for not voting for the guy though.
The 14th amendment, section 3 does not require committing a crime in order to be removed.
