2024 Presidential primaries The Election Code [of Colorado] allows  the Electors to challenge President Trump’s status as a qualified candidate based on Section Three [of the 14th Amendment]. Indeed, the Election Code provides the Electors their only viable means of litigating whether President Trump is disqualified from holding office under Section Three. Anderson v. Griswold, majority decision, Supreme Court of the State of Colorado  © 2023 Kwiple.com
2024 Presidential primaries A majority of the Court holds that President Trump is disqualified from holding the office of President under  Section Three of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. 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. Anderson v. Griswold, majority decision, Supreme Court of the State of Colorado  © 2023 Kwiple.com
2024 Presidential primaries [N]othing about the district court's process suggests that President Trump was deprived of notice or opportunity to fully respond to the claim against him or to mount a vigorous defense. If any case suggests that it is not  impossible to “fully litigate a complex constitutional issue within days or weeks,” this is it. Anderson v. Griswold, majority decision, Supreme Court of the State of Colorado  © 2023 Kwiple.com
2024 Presidential primaries Rapist Republican Frontrunner Heads Straight to Court After Iowa Win headline, article in The New Republic, January 16, 2024, about Trump flying to New York City after winning the Iowa caucuses to attend a trial to set damages after a jury unanimously decided he had sexually assaulted E. Jean Carroll in the mid-1990s and defamed her in 2019, and the judge declared him to be a “rapist” as the term is “commonly understood by most people,” instead of flying to New Hampshire, the site of 2024's second presidential primary © 2024 Kwiple.com
 
Surely you jest It is a “‘fundamental principle of our  representative democracy,’ embodied in the  Constitution, that ‘the people should choose whom they please to govern them.’”  First sentence in Trump's petition to the Supreme Court to overturn the Colorado Supreme Court's decision to prevent him from appearing on its primary ballot because he violated Section Three of the Fourteenth Amendment by engaging in an insurrection intended to keep himself in power  and prevent the duly elected winner of the 2020 presidential election from taking office, after  having sworn an oath to defend the Constitution,  an irony lost on the petition's authors: Scott E.
