Supreme Court Delivers Unanimous 9-0 Ruling – And It’s a Massive Blow to President Biden

Ever since Donald Trump announced his 2024 presidential bid, Democrats have seemingly pulled out all the stops to thwart him. He’s been hit with numerous criminal suits. And in nearly every state, people have sued to block him.

In Colorado, the courts ruled against Trump in a case that could derail his return to the White House. Soon after, Maine did the same. More recently, Illinois made the same decision.

The issue was taken to the Supreme Court—which would decide Trump’s fate on many issues. Just this week, the court quickly released its decision. And in a 9-0 ruling, they just shut down a major plot by the radical left.

From Fox News:
The U.S. Supreme Court sided unanimously with former President Trump in his challenge to the state of Colorado’s attempt to kick him off the 2024 primary ballot.

All nine justices ruled in favor of Trump in the case, which will impact the status of efforts in several other states to remove the likely GOP nominee from their respective ballots.

The Supreme Court ruled to keep Trump on ballots after Colorado decided to remove him. This came just a day before Colorado and many other states went to the primary polls.

The highest court in the land decided that states can bar a candidate from running for state offices. But the states have “no power under the Constitution” to block someone running for federal office, “especially the Presidency.”

This is a major win for Donald Trump, who has faced dozens of lawsuits to block him from state ballots. The vast majority of attempts were shut down by state courts. Only in left-leaning Colorado, Maine, and Illinois did liberal officials decide against the former president.

Already, Trump is celebrating the victory. The court, however, appeared not to touch on the claims that Trump is guilty of starting an “insurrection” on January 6th. That issue could still be decided by future rulings, which might come in later months.

This means that Nikki Haley’s chances are even slimmer. She might have been hoping that Trump would be kicked off of enough ballots, to prevent him from winning the primary.

Now that this hurdle is removed, no state can remove Trump from primary or general election ballots.

Key Takeaways:

  • The Supreme Court ruled against attempts to remove Trump from the ballot.
  • The court decided, 9-0, that states only have the power to bar candidates running for state office.
  • This is a massive blow to liberals’ attempts at blocking Trump from returning to the White House.
