BREAKING: Vivek Ramaswamy pledges to withdraw from Colorado GOP primary unless Trump is allowed on ballot, DEMANDS DeSantis, Christie, Haley do the same
Post Millenial ^ | 12/19/23 | unattributed

Posted on 12/19/2023 5:38:46 PM PST by TonyinLA

Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy spoke out after the Colorado Supreme Court ruled that Donald Trump could be removed from the Colorado 2024 ballot for the crime of insurrection, for which Trump has neither been charged nor convicted.

“This is what an actual attack on democracy looks like," Ramaswamy said, "in an un-American, unconstitutional, and unprecedented decision, a cabal of Democrat judges are barring Trump from the ballot in Colorado. Having tried every trick in the book to eliminate President Trump from running in this election, the bipartisan Establishment is now deploying a new tactic to bar him from ever holding office again: the 14th Amendment," he said.

“I’d argue that Colorado’s electoral votes should be left out if federal elections until they can demonstrate they are guranteeing a republican form of government.”

I was thinking something along the same lines. They want to invent their own rules, they don’t get to be part of the election.

then they’ll piss their pants and call it menstruation.

I am sure those scum sucking dirt bags will. I suppose, however, it’s better than doing it on my leg, and telling me it’s raining. 😂😆

“I doubt if any of the Colorado supreme court justices have ever heard of Eugene Debs.”

Debs was the Socialist Party candidate for 1920 so the commies pulling this stunt should have heard of him.

Vivek is far more American than the others if they don’t take the pledge.

At least Vivek has got some balls, and a shrewd mind as well. He knows how this political game works.

Everyone else will look weak if they don't follow suit, and of course Vivek is positioning himself for the VP position in a Trump administration.

Ramaswamy is a headline whore.

He clearly knows how to play this game of "politics."

This is a raw power grab by a bunch of crooked judges who should be removed from office for pulling this stunt.

Agree.

And good to see you again.

Not really. They make endless mistakes. The only thing keeping them from being laughed at and reviled is the mainstream media that covers up their blunders and scandals, explains what they really meant to say, and demonizes their competition.

Well of course they do. The media-liars are their accomplices. They are all part of the same corrupt scheme of getting rich from controlling DC.

On the thread earlier today dealing with the brothel in MA and DC, someone commented that this is probably a distraction from something else. I see this the same way. Trump hasn’t been convicted. There’s no basis for this ruling except their own imagination. It will be overturned. They know this and yet did it anyway. What are they using this shiny object to hide?

There is always a write in. And it is only the primary.


I believe that the Court’s reasoning is that he cannot be president. Period. So write in would be meaningless - they would refuse to allow him to participate in Colorado’s election, full stop.

Since this is a federal issue, and they defied the US Constitution per this order, then NO FEDERAL candidate should be allowed or...Colorado gets kicked out of the Union. Right along with the rest of those leftist holes.

Like Trump, he doesn’t feel he could win one on one, so he wants everybody else to get out of the way.

And Trump knows perfectly well that every time the courts attack him, his stock goes up so that people feel they have to support him just to express their disgust at this total corruption of our laws and Justice system.

This is much ado about nothing, but it gives publicity to all the people included in it. And for a politician, any kind of publicity is good.

No, wrong move. Stay on the ballot and pledge your delegates to Trump. Every Trumper voter in the state will back you!

“ Ramaswamy is a headline whore.”

————————

Some might call it being an opportunist……much like every other candidate.

Vivek/Trump/Trump supporters are the only ones talking about fraud, j6 and other government backed crimes. Meanwhile…..the rest bash Trump, not the government.

Government is failing because the ‘republicans’ we have voted for decade after decade agree with democrats when it comes to voting on legislation. And when they retire, they say it openly. Trump isn’t the problem, Congress is.

Trump nor DeSantis can fix Congress. All they can do is raise awareness of the government crimes and encourage people to vote accordingly. DeSantis does not have that skillset. Vivek is at least trying.

………and your reaction is….. predictable.
