John Dean: ‘Trump’s in trouble’ after Maine ruling
The Hill ^ | 12/29/2023 | NICK ROBERTSON

Nixon White House attorney John Dean said Thursday he believes the Maine decision to remove former President Trump from the ballot will be difficult to overturn, calling it “very solid.”

Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows (D) determined late Thursday that Trump should be kept off the state’s primary ballot because his conduct surrounding the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riots violated the 14th Amendment.

Dean denounced criticism by the Trump campaign, which called the decision “election interference.”

“There was ample due process in this proceeding, and they just lost by a straight, honest reading of the 14th Amendment,” Dean said in a CNN interview. “Trump’s in trouble.”

Every time Dean has something anti-Trump to say, the media dutifully crowds around him with their recording devices.

Because he helped the Democrat party in the 1970s, his 15 minutes is never up. What a jackass.

Biden is on Video admitting to giving Ukraine a $1 Billion dollar bribe to Fire the Prosecutor (unprecedented in History), so where are the Republicans?

Why isn’t Joe being removed any state ballot?

Where are the Republican Prosecutors, like the ones that keep bringing charges against Trump?

Remove Joe from one Ballot, and the Supreme Court will be in Emergency Session that night.

The Constitution and the Supreme Court may have something to say about that.

There is only one political party. It supports Biden.

So, one person in Maine gets to decide who the whole state can vote for? And this is called “solid” by another deep stater.

The U.S. constitution is clear. It is the state legislature which determine how the state electoral votes are given, and not the courts or executive branch. This crap all needs to stop, and yes, it’s time to pressure our state legislators to ban Biden from receiving any electoral votes because he created the invasion of the Southern border.

“Ruling”?
Good grief, Dean is an even bigger dumb*ss than I ever imagined. But, her “law” appears to be totally aligned with Ivy League “law”. (Ivy League Law is fast becoming a prime oxymoron... practiced by morons. They should remember that the law is obeyed only by those who respect it, and that respect is draining rapidly.)

a straight, honest reading of the 14th Amendment

He needs to show the world where in the 14th amendment it mentions the word "President" or be immediately and permanently DISBARRED and Prosecuted for Perpetrating a FRAUD.

Colorado had to put him back on. I’m sure the idiot SoS in Maine will get hers handed to her as well. The last time states tried to remove a candidate was Lincoln. That didn’t really work out so well. The left thinks it can just deem things to be the way they want them and the rest of us be damned.
