    How do you mean? The people challenging Trump being on the ballots are Republicans with standing in those jurisdictions.

    I am not offering my opinion on these cases, but I think it’s important to make sure we understand who the plaintiffs are.

      the two states that have removed Trump from their ballots are Colorado and Maine, Colorado’s entirely democrat appointed supreme court, and Maine’s democratic secretary of state.

        You are saying their rulings go against written law in preference to their party affiliation? If so, I’d be interested in understanding how.

          I am saying they are democrats that have removed republican opposition from the next election. This is what republican voters are going to see and its gonna be hard to campaign on democracy itself while setting this precedent.
