In a surprise move, an Illinois judge has removed former President Donald Trump from the state’s ballot based on the 14th Amendment’s so-called “insurrectionist ban.”

The decision is paused, giving Trump a short period of time to appeal.

Wednesday’s unexpected decision comes as a similar anti-Trump challenge from Colorado is pending before the US Supreme Court, which is widely expected to reject arguments that Trump is barred from office

Turn Chicago into Ch-Iraq and then ban the competition in a sorry attempt at keeping power.

You gotta be real dumb to try that now.

I guess the Supreme Court taking on Trump's "Immunity" case, and Fani Willis and the gang getting fucked up in court on the daily, made this totally impartial judge lose it. What a moron.

The Fascists strike again. These people are absolutely frightened of democracy and letting the American people choose their own President.

I am not in favor of taking Trump off the ballot. I understand his attempted coup is good reason but still don't support it because he is the clear leader of the GOP base.

More of Our Democracy™ in action. 3 straight elections of spying on the opposition, changing election rules at the last minute, and now democrat judges in the most corrupt cities in the country just straight up telling voters they'll decide who you're allowed to vote for.

I can't wait for all the originalists in the thread and on the Supreme Court to see the light and realize how dumb originalism can be. JK, self-awareness is too rare.

A coup can be successful or not. You don't seem to understand the definition of "attempted".

One can attempt to do something. They may or may not be successful. Not being successful does not invalidate their attempts.

 

[USA!USA!]

Trump was never going to win Illinois anyways. Let's be real.

Are there any white male judges left in the US?

You know if a judge did this to Biden or Obama they would have charged the judge with treason for "attempted coup".

You don't need to launch a military op. to be an attempted coup. The attempt was by Trump and his surrogates trying to throw out Biden votes, put forth fake electors and pressure officials to not certify the election results.
