Trump Disqualified From Illinois Ballot

The GOP needs to nominate someone with a better chance of winning in November.

Trump is not on the Primary Ballot in three states.

This is not related to Biden. The ballot for the General Election is a different conversation.

And they don't have the right to keep him off the ballot in a National Election so even without those states he will still get the nomination and then be on the ballot in all states in November.

All this is doing is getting more people behind him because of the ploy by the left to try and skew the election in their favor.

Tell us that you don't understand this controversy without telling us you don't understand this controversy!



Also, if Biden wins I wouldn't expect Trump and Trump supporters to accept that anyway...

There are rules for who is allowed to be on the ballot. If you want to be on the ballot, comply with the rules. It really is that easy. Trump is trying to make it hard. The rulers apply to everyone, sucks for Trump is he does not want to play by the rules.

I expect Trump supporters to want whatever Trump wants. Some Trump supporters will claim that Trump won in 2024 even if he dies prior to the election.

The starts decide how to run their elections for the most part. Who are you to decide otherwise?

The 14th Amendment says "No person". It is stupid to think that it only applies to Confederates. If a state does not want someone on their ballot because they think they are an insurrectionist, then fine. Is there some law that says a conviction is required?

It is not only Democrats that are using the 14th to deny Trump a place on the ballot. GOP are doing it too. Can you allow that to stand? Who are you to allow anything or not?

Your post is the height of stupidity here. How is it that you are completely clueless as to who is trying to keep Trump off of the ballots in various states?

If you want to give January 6th a different name other than "insurrection," ok, but those who entered the Capitol Building did so in an effort to stop the certification. That's hardly "ludicrous and pathetic." It actually goes against the very core of Democracy.

While the officical charges against Trump may not include the word "insurrection," but he has been charged with:

one count of conspiracy to defraud the United States applies to Trump's repeated and widespread efforts to spread false claims about the November 2020 election while knowing they were not true and for allegedly attempting to illegally discount legitimate votes all with the goal of overturning the 2020 election, prosecutors claim in the indictment.

one count of conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding was brought due to the alleged organized planning by Trump and his allies to disrupt the electoral vote's certification in January 2021.

one count of obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding is tied to Trump and his co-conspirators' alleged efforts after the November 2020 election until Jan. 7, 2021, to block the official certification proceeding in Congress.

one count of conspiracy against rights refers to Trump and his co-conspirators alleged attempts to "oppress, threaten and intimidate"

A write-in does not guarantee that the vote will count.

In some cases they figure correctly, I think.

The people who hate the same people that Trump hates, want Trump to be president. The people that Trump doesn't like include, military, women, immigrants (like his wife and her parents), people who depend upon others for medical expenses (like his own family), rape victims, people with military family members (like Nikki Haley). That is a long ass list.

The only people finding common ground are the gun grabbers. Most Democrats approve of Trump's gun grab and some even don't mind that he was pushing for gun confiscation without due process. Why do the MAGA side with the democrats on this? The MAGA's who acknowledge that the gun grab happened use typical Democrat anti-gun talking points to support the notion that "no one should own those kinds of guns". The other MAGA's simply deny the gun grab happened even though they can watch video of Trump on Fox News bragging about it and read the amendment to the CFR in which he ordered it.

Trump belongs in prison more than he belongs in the White House.

I'll give you my two reasons why I prefer Trump over Biden at this point.

1) I judge presidents on their war records.
Trump did not get us involved in any new wars when he was Pres.
Biden has gotten us involved in at least two which have both been big mistakes.
The bigger one is the Ukraine/Russia conflict where he rejected working out peace deals and it has brought us closer to WW3.
I still have a hard time believing that it is a Dem and not a Repub. who has done this but there it is.

2) Age.
Biden is just too old.
Yeah, so is Trump but Biden shows more and more how he is unfit and very well may have early stages of dementia with blunder after blunder of so many senior moments.
(A caller said to him, "Let's go Brandon," and he agreed!)
Trump has his share of blunders and gaffes but he just seems more fit and stable.

There should be mandatory retirement ages for politicians.
Esp. for the one that has the top job of the country.

If a judge said Trump was an insurrectionist, then too bad for Trump. Trump knows even less about the justice system than you do.

As long as the SCOTUS rules the way that Leftists would prefer, the Court is described as "the supreme law of the land."

When it rules otherwise, however and especially when it does so frequently, it is "illegitimate."

And to remain on the ballot for all states. A preemptive decision.

Karma is a bitch. The GOP is cutting their own throat by insisting upon Trump as their candidate. Trump will lose big, then cry like a little bitch about how the election was stolen from him.
