A Colorado judge has rejected an attempt by former President Donald Trump to dismiss a lawsuit that seeks to keep him off the state ballot. The lawsuit claims the U.S.
Just to be clear, I was talking only about the presidency. If trump is nominated, I think the probability of trump being elected to the presidency is zero, or it will be zero when election day rolls around.
I understand why there aren’t any republicans eager to show trump the door though. I think that is a mistake on their part, but I understand and agree with what you’re saying about that.
If only the system could accommodate more than two options. The US voting system is the biggest gerrymander in history but neither party wants to fix it.
They’re in quite a pickle. Half of them don’t want Trump, the other half will only vote for Trump (even if he’s in prison). MAGA is tearing the party apart and the house speaker situation is just the latest manifestation of that.
Recently, I think. I am sure other states will take similar action.
I have a hard time believing that the republicans are stupid enough to give trump the nomination, but it is quite easy to underestimate how stupid people are.
Yes, but if Trump isn’t on the ballot some of the Trumpists who would have gone and voted straight Republican are going to stay home instead which could have an impact on close down-ballot races, like say Colorado’s 3rd House seat for example.
Gonna be hard to get elected without being on the ballot. I don’t see how the republican party can believe they have any chance of winning with trump.

I said the same thing in 2016
I’m assuming that the Dems won’t run Hillary again. If that happens, all bets are off.
I remember thinking that in 2016.
Well, he’s lost an election since 2016 and as he says, “nobody likes a loser”.
If they were actually moderate they would work with the Democrats.

Isn’t Colorado pretty blue anyway?
Getting tossed in a state like Florida would absolutely kill his chances though.

we are where we are now because enough people are, in fact, that stupid.

It’s actually considered a battleground state. Where it could go red if enough people don’t vote. Look where Boeberts from.
