'We're Headed To A System Where The Elites Pick Our Leadership': RFK Jr.
2023-12-30
[ET via ZERO] Facing a monumental challenge to get on the ballot in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. continues to criticize legal efforts to prevent former President Donald Trump from appearing on the ballot in multiple states.

The Colorado Supreme Court on Dec. 19 declared President Trump ineligible in the state based on a provision in Section 3 of the 14th Amendment that prevents individuals who have engaged in "insurrection" against the United States from holding office.

Mr. Kennedy, who announced on Oct. 9 that he would run for president in 2024 as an independent instead of as a Democrat because the Democrat National Committee was "rigging the primary," has expressed his disapproval of the decision several times since.

He wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter:

"Colorado Supreme Court ruling makes America look like a Banana Republic. Why doesn’t every American understand that if they can do this to a former US President, EVERYONE is vulnerable to punishment for crimes with which they have never been convicted. Democracy would be a total shambles."

Heading to?

We've been there for several decades - Trump was an accident because they underestimated his appeal.

You only just now noticed it.
