Michigan Supreme Court tosses Trump disqualification bid - National Zero

The Michigan state Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld a lower court decision deeming disgraced former President Trump is still eligible for the 2024 primary ballot despite having engaged in insurrection. The ruling does not close the door on a crack at removing the fat fuck from the general election ballot (should the US Supreme Court sidestep the Colorado Supreme Court’s ruling), as the opinion concerns only the court’s lack of jurisdiction over the Michigan Republican Party’s process. “The Michigan Supreme Court has strongly and rightfully denied the Desperate Democrat attempt to take the leading Candidate in the 2024 Presidential Election, me, off the ballot in the Great State of Michigan,” the orange bastard later posted on Truth Social, making it plain he doesn’t understand that he’s not out of the woods yet there and everything’s on the line at the US Supreme Court.

Another suit to disqualify Trump under the Constitution's 'insurrection' clause is filed in Michigan

A liberal group has filed a lawsuit in Michigan seeking to disqualify former president Donald Trump from the White House under a rarely-used clause in the U.S. Constitution. The lawsuit filed on Friday by the group Free Speech For People relies on the post-Civil War 14th Amendment provision that forbids anyone who “engaged in insurrection” from occupying higher office. The measure has only been used a handful of times since the Civil War. But dozens of lawsuits have been filed nationally to use it to end Trump's 2024 run. Trump has dismissed the push to bar him from the ballot as “election interference” and his attorneys argued in the Colorado case that it violates his free speech rights.
