It remains to be seen whether Donald Trump is on the Colorado Republican Primary ballot after the state’s Supreme Court ruled him ineligible because of the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol.
But Florida’s Governor said he’ll be on the ballot regardless, even as Vivek Ramaswamy says he will withdraw himself if Trump is not restored.
“I think that’s just playing into the Left,” DeSantis said on Newsmax.
“I’ve qualified for all the ballots. I’m competing in all the states. And I’m going to accumulate the delegates necessary. That’s the whole name of the game.”
Ironically, the DeSantis campaign already made news regarding Colorado earlier this month by seemingly mocking a precondition of the state party for candidates who qualify. The operator of the Florida Governor’s X account quoted text from the Colorado Republican Party directing candidates qualifying for the state’s presidential primary to project enthusiasm on social media.
“To qualify for the CO primary ballot, the state party requires that candidates post something on social media that announces their excitement while encouraging their followers to follow the state party’s social media accounts for updates about the state party primary and events,” the post reads, before offering enthusiasm that accords with the party’s stipulation.
“I’m excited to officially be on the ballot for the Colorado primary! Coloradans, it’s time for Republicans to start winning again. As your nominee, I will run (Joe) Biden ragged across this country and help Republicans up and down the ballot WIN.”
So, in short. He qualified. He gave the party the social media it wanted. And he’s coming for the delegates, in theory at least.

Trump eliminated by disqualification is howlingly funny.
MAGA will go berserk if it spreads.
They should be taunted. Feed their fears.
“You have deep hate, TrumpTrash: we have DeepState!”

The MÀGA morons seem upset with the ruling, judged by all the violènt threats the justices are getting.

Boiling mad is just the way we want them.

The voters in the self-proclaimed “party of law and order” do seem to be very, very upset about law and order coming for one of them.
Makes one wonder what “party of law and order” is (and this in not a Rhonda joke) short for.
I used an under cover account and searched the White Web to find out. People are saying it’s short for “The party of enacting laws to order other people around”

I used to occasionally look in on the white supremacy sites (e.g., StormFront, the various Klans,, and others) but haven’t for years. I don’t need to. They post and state widely now in public simply as Republicans.

I once spoke on the phone with the notorious (within the movement) Ben Klassen. But not about his series of hate books or his kook church. He was at the time somewhere around Pompano, north of Ft. Lauderdale, literally selling swamp lots in Big Cypress Swamp.
Google “ben klassen”

Purge the chump from all 16 states working on it.
Let MAGA go (more) insane.
Let them riot ànd plot.
Riot troops and the FBI can handle it.
Bullets and lethal injections if the Trumpscum force it to that.
