Former Attorney General Bill Barr said Wednesday on CNN’s “The Lead” that the Colorado Supreme Court decision disqualifying former President Donald Trump from the state’s 2024 ballot would be overturned by the Supreme Court.
Barr said, “As you know, I strongly oppose Donald Trump for the Republican nomination. I think this case is legally wrong and untenable. I think this kind of action of stretching the law and taking hyper-aggressive missions to knock Trump out of the race they are counterproductive. They backfire, as you know. He feeds on grievance just like a fire feeds on oxygen. This will end up as a grievance that helps him.”

Is there some reason we should care what Bill Barr says? As I recall, he weaseled around all sorts of things to run out the clock for the Dems.

Disclosure: I have never been the Attorney General of the United States, and I hold no law degree. But I can and have read the Constitution of the United States quite a few times and can predict with a high degree of certainty that the Supreme Court will overturn this unconstitutional ruling by the Colorado Supreme Court. The obvious misuse of "law" to promote a political ideology is blatantly obvious.
Ironically, the left is attempting to attach Trump to Hitler, yet the left wants to criminalize their political opponents--just like Hitler, Stalin, and other socialists have done.

I see that our Perry Mason returns to the communist news network cameras. How considerate of him.

Common sense and decency dictates that the four idiot judges in Colorado be overridden but going to the US Supreme Court just passes the ball off to another group that consists of some biased and unqualified judges who have already made a wrong decision in 2020 not to allow lawsuits against an obviously stolen election to stand in an attempt to avoid conflict. Never put your faith in any government body to do the right thing. In our case, the power of the people may be called upon to do the right thing.

He's not really criticizing the action of the Colorado Supreme Court. He is just saying that it is not going to work and he regrets that.
Nasty piece of work Bill Barr is.

Dan Bongino made a great point - SCOTUS may indeed put a stop to it....for now. What happens when the makeup of the court changes and they do this again? Or what is they DON'T put a stop to it? Unless and until they do, RED STATES need to start bringing suits to get Biden of the baitot for the same reason they used against Trump, because with Biden its actually true that he has "given aid and comfort to our enemies". Republicans have to start fighting back and using their tactics against them, instead of waiting on someone to "fix it". It's much like the difference between the kid who is bullied running to get a teacher or a principal every time he's picked on, as opposed to finally turning around and cleaning the clock of the bully. And then, once you do that, .you've got a put your foot on the neck of that bully and keep it there. Republicans have got to quit cowering in the corner and crying.

Re: #9: that should have read "off the ballot"

The former AG bagpipe boy bill bar is a nervous pedophile. His latest ranting and whining is just wishful thinking on his part.

I don’t know, guys. Remember Obamacare? We were all reassured that SCOTUS would knock it down. Do not underestimate the power of the compromised.

I hope you're right Billy, but we have been screwed by SCOTUS before, several times.

Even Deep State Billy Barr knows that this is a crock of manure.

Regardless of whether you like Barr or not, the Colorado Court's actions are unconstitutional. Actions allowed in the 14th Amendment are reserved for Federal Congress (House and Senate) as defined in Section 5 of the 14th Amendment. State courts and legislatures have no powers granted to them in the 14th Amendment.

Oh, so now this is bridge too far...the likes of Bill Barr and his stupid claims that Trump broke the law is one of the many things that led us to exactly where we are today.

Chief Justice: "What's on the docket this week?"
Clerk: "Yet another case challenging a lower court's political hit job."
Chief Justice: "Great. Just great."
