The Trump campaign is blaming liberal billionaire George Soros for the Colorado Supreme Court decision to kick the former president from appearing on the state’s 2024 presidential election ballot.
In a 4-3 vote on Tuesday, Colorado’s highest court kicked Trump off the ballot under the 14th Amendment insurrection clause which bars from office anyone who swore an oath to “support” the Constitution and then “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” against it.
“Unsurprisingly, the all-Democrat appointed Colorado Supreme Court has ruled against President Trump, supporting a Soros-funded, left-wing group’s scheme to interfere in an election on behalf of Crooked Joe Biden by removing President Trump’s name from the ballot and eliminating the rights of Colorado voters to vote for the candidate of their choice,” spokesperson for Trump’s campaign Steven Cheung said in a statement.
Cheung said they swiftly file an appeal to the United States Supreme Court and a concurrent request for a stay the ruling.
Republicans have often invoked Soros, a prominent supporter of liberal causes, during their attacks on Democrats without any evidence to support their claims.
