  1. States shouldn’t have to do this. It should be self-executing, but I’m still glad they’re doing it.

  3. >A Cook County judge ruled Wednesday that former President Donald Trump’s name should be struck from the March 19 Illinois Republican primary ballot because he engaged in insurrection in the deadly Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol and is disqualified from holding the office of president.

    100% agree

  4. Good. We know he incited the insurrection.

    Take him off the ballot!

  8. Man and not even in a “his name is off but he can still win through write-ins” sort of way, it sounds like his votes won’t even be counted if the ruling stands. That’s a nice one Illinois

    It’s just the primary ballot, but still, damn nice

  10. This one is more interesting than others bc this challenge seeks to remove him not just from the primary ballot, but also the general election ballot. AFAIK, all other challenges thus far have only been about removing him from the Republican primary ballot

  11. Trump won’t win Illinois whether he’s on the ballot or not here

  12. I am sure these will get struck down. But dang… historic craziness seeing this happen.

    Just shows the importance of this election historically.

  15. How to not get removed from the ballot for violating the 14th Amendment in one simple step:

    1.Don’t instigate an attempt to stop the lawful and peaceful transfer of power

  16. This needs to happen in every county in every state across the country.

  17. States should just remove him, what are the supreme Court gonna do about it?

  18. It isn’t that hard…it’s clear. He is a traitor and insurrectionist….everyone that isnt MAGAtt knows this

  19. States must ignore SCOTUS’ blatantly incorrect, interventionist reading of the constitution if they attempt to reverse

  20. Couldn’t he also be tossed from the ballot because he took ZERO steps and even REFUSED to take any steps to quell the insurrection?

    Isn’t a complete and utter failure of duty and a broken oath to protect the United States reason enough to bar him from office?

  23. Cook County?
    This money is for the year’s assessment of Saint Helen of the Blessed Shroud Orphanage in Calumet City, Illinois.

  24. If the Supreme Court rules against Colorado, Illinois should ignore the ruling and remove Trump from the ballot anyway.

    If Texas can ignore the Supreme Court on the border with little to no consequence, Illinois has an obligation to do the same to prevent the election of the man who tried to overthrow the government.

  25. The day Trump asked Pence not to certify the election & Pence responded that he most follow the rules of the constitution is all you need to know. Like how has every state not banned him. Once all that was confirmed to have taken place. Should & still be an easy open & shut deal.
