In a 4-3 decision the Colorado Supreme Court ruled that former President Trump was barred from appearing on the upcoming Republican primary ballot due to his engagement in insurrectionist activities. What few realize beyond the fact that Trump has yet to be convicted, and that U.S. Supreme Court will likely strike this decision down, is that the 14th Amendment’s so-called “insurrection clause” was actually meant to apply to states and officials who sought to prevent freed slaves and white supporters from voting - usually for Republicans. Besides the confirmation of due process and equal protection, which Democrats conveniently ignore, the Amendment was literally formed to prevent exactly what the court in Colorado is engaged in: without conviction, remove a candidate from office and prevent the people voting for him or her! Furthermore, even with a conviction the U.S. Congress can override with a 2/3rd vote. This is how the Grinch tries to steal an election.
