Is Trump Eligible to Run Again?

Newt Gingrich on X @newtgingrich


The biggest meaning of the Supreme Court decision on Colorado is that by 9-0 the Justices concluded that the biggest threat to democracy was not Donald Trump it was the left. Properly driven this can become a major political definition for the rest of the campaign and proof positive that the threat from the left is so great even the liberal Justices voted to protect the American people's right to have candidates they choose.





Trump needs to pound this for the next 8 months.

My favorite reaction so far is Jena Griswold (Colorado Secretary of State):

"My larger reaction is disappointment," Griswold said on MSNBC. "I do believe that states should be able under our constitution to bar oath-breaking insurrectionists."

"Ultimately, this decision leaves open the door for Congress to act to pass authorizing legislation, but we know that Congress is a nearly non-functioning body," she added. "So ultimately, it will be up to the American voters to save our democracy in November."

I suppose the irony of her statement is lost on her.

Sounds like Seran, at least if Seran were capable of putting together a coherent sentence on his own.

Let the cope begin!

Reuters headline:

US Supreme Court ruling in Trump ballot case showed unanimity, not unity

Took them about 24 hours, but they found a way to twist this to their liking.

Keeping Trump off ballots was 3/4th's of the Democrat playbook for 2024. They have absolutely nothing to run on and now Victoria Nuland just stepped down because, as some of us warned, Ukraine is a fucking quagmire that we have burned up a 100 billion on and there's no end in sight.

Some of the conservatives in this forum should have known better than to support US involvement in Ukraine with the US track record since Vietnam.

LOL... no idea who Harry is.. he looks like a high school kid? Let me guess... rich white family and he goes by the pronouns "they/them"? What a racist though.. much like most Democrats.

I like to think of myself as a libertarian with conservative values as I don’t fit neatly into the box of politicaly conservative, especially on social issues, but to respond…

I was ok with the first 20-50 billion in aid to Ukraine and will stand by that. Our strategy initially was to make it difficult & costly for the Russians to achieve their objective, prevent Russia from steamrolling ALL of Ukraine, and make them think twice about any other aggressive expansion ideas especially with our NATO allies. In some sense we achieved that. My support for aiding Ukraine is not unlimited. If Europe wants to give more, they can. A big problem we have is there is no clear US strategic objective with Ukraine that I can ascertain. A peace should be negotiated as we’re in a prolonged stalemate. Ukraine doesn’t have the numbers to win, no matter how much military aid they receive. I do not support direct military intervention, which is the only hope for Ukraine to “win” this war.

I think my biggest issue with Ukraine funding is just how out of control it has gotten, and how obviously corrupt Ukraine has become about it all.

First it started out with military aid. Okay, sure. Next thing you know we are literally paying the salaries of their police and firefighters, then we are paying for the seeds and fertilizer for Ukrainian farmers. What? The US isn't even helping US farmers as much as they are helping Ukrainian farmers.

Then Zelenskyy has the brass balls to demand billions of dollars to fund their election, otherwise they just won't hold elections.

When did Ukraine become the 51st state of the US?

I was for it at the beginning when the invasion first happened.. but it's now nothing more than a slush pot for politicians to get more donations from the US war machine. It's gone on entirely too long because of our limp wristed policy and our inability to act quickly and decisively at the beginning. Zelensky going to each country to panhandle and somehow make this our problem is irritating and the American people have zero responsibility to keep throwing their money away so politicians and the US arms manufacturing CEOs can get their pockets lined by the blood of Ukrainian and Russian solders.

The US taxpayers needs to take a good hard look at how our government spends our money.

If you, or the rest of you, have never read 1984 or it's been a while, I highly suggest this audiobook. Everyone, including the Seranites and Time4MaleBreastFeeders, need to listen or read it until you know it by heart.

There's absolutely no reason anyone should have supported US involvement in the Russia/Ukraine conflict. Stop falling for their psyops.
