The justices will review a decision by the Colorado Supreme Court that said Trump could be barred from the Republican primary ballot in that state, but the U.S. Supreme Court ruling is likely to have national repercussions, potentially setting guidelines that would determine how every other state would handle the issue.

The brief order said the case would be argued on an accelerated schedule on Feb. 8, indicating that a ruling will follow soon after.

    Nobody want’s Trump disqualified more than Republicans. Many of whom hate his guts but are too chickenshit to challenge him publicly. A SCOTUS ruling against him would be the perfect solution. He would be forced out as the de facto leader of the party and all the crazies would blame Democrats and John Roberts.

    If the fix is in, that’s bad news for Trump.

    That being said, my opinion is that if the only way to stop Trump is to disqualify him, then this stupid country isn’t worth saving and the goddamn constitution doesn’t matter anyhow.

      You’re right. Any relation to the Yes Men?

      It’s like the Abilene Paradox, but more violent and stupid.
