Colorado, The 14th Amendment and the SCOTUS 1

Let's say that the Colorado Supreme Court decides that Trump is ineligible to be on the 2024 ballot.
Trump will appeal this decision to the SCOTUS.
What if the SCOTUS refuses to take up the case, allowing the lower court decision to stand, but not deciding for the nation? This would force each state to take Trump to court slowing down their ability to prevent his destruction of our nation.
Do you think the SCOTUS would do this or not?
Will they take this up and kick him off nationally or slow-roll this and let each individual state decide?

I'm guessing SCOTUS would overturn that, somehow.

Oh, they could, but they would be shooting themselves in the foot if they did.
Trump as dictator will have no use for a SCOTUS. Dictators don't need courts.
For them to allow him to be on a national ticket would be their death sentence.

It would be shooting SCOTUS in the foot, sure. But the members of the court that voted in favor of trump would land themselves in his good graces, and would likely end up with a cushy position in the dictatorship.
Or, more likely, they would keep their positions in name as part of Trump's personal kangaroo court. The liberals would, of course, be removed.

How do you figure? The ballot isn't to decide who will be dictator. How does him being elected threaten the SCOTUS at all?

Who cares what he says? Are you one of those people who believes that whatever Trump says it gospel?

I've found that Trump is remarkably honest in his intentions when he describes specific actions. To a very literal degree.
His success, or lack thereof, is a different question.

When a presidential candidate makes claims like the ones he's made, I pay attention.
He doesn't give a shit about our Constitution or way of governing.
His words and actions prove this.
His goal is to tear it all down and appoint himself a dictator for life.
He's the snake in that cute little poem he likes to read from time to time.

si=AIpVpgGRhtpnP1L5 A video about the oral arguments made in his supreme court case in Colorado. It's funny because in his defamation case he tried to say that being a federal officer protected him from prosecution, but now hes saying he technically isn't a federal officer.

I watched some of that today.
My original question stands ... Will the SCOTUS take it up or not?

I just saw the video, not only is that not what he said but what he did say was obviously tounge in cheek. CNN zombies rarely get Trumps humor though, which is a shame because it is his most redeeming quality.

Yeah, people keep saying things like this. "Oh, he's obviously joking, he won't do that" and then...he does that. I remember when the Jan 6th assault on the capitol was all supposedly just a joke that would never actually happen. Overturning Roe V Wade was all a joke that would never happen.
That's kind of how fascism works. It's like Shroedinger's asshole. It's all a joke...until it isn't. And then it's too late.

Fascism lol, I bet you don't even know the meaning of the word. Trump is living rent free in your head. Trump literally told everyone to protest peacefully on Jan 6th, and Roe v Wade was unconsitituational, so the supreme court ruled correctly - it should be up to the states. Leftards are baffled either by evasion of reality or just by Trump triggering you all with his off the cuff humor.

Actually he told people to fight. And fight they did.
He also told them to prepare to fight before that, and everybody said the same thing as you did: It's all just one of his jokes, all that off the cuff humor.
Fact is, Trump is too stupid to joke. Trump says exactly what he intends to do, and then he tries to do it. Once in a while, he succeeds. Trump intends to invoke the Insurrection Act on the first day of his presidency, and use the military to suppress anyone that he perceives as one of his opponents. That is exactly what he will do.
The only one with Trump Derangement Syndrome here is you. And the rest of your MAGA kind. Because you are, quite literally, deranged, if you believe that Trump cares about you or the country, or anything but himself, for that matter.
Fascism is when corporations ally with the state in an effort to turn state violence against the workers. We haven't quite gotten to the open violence yet.
