I agree Donald Trump shouldn’t be kept off the ballot by Secretaries of State, and it’s equally undemocratic that @deanbphillips and myself are kept off ballots due to Secretaries of State doing the bidding of the DNC.

It's okay for you to say he should not be on the ballot. You didn't incite an insurrection, so it's not at all hypocritical for you to say you should be on the ballot and he shouldn't.

And we all know why you agree. 1. It adds your still doomed campaign and 2. Grifter solidarity

Not the same Marianne. Trump tried to commit a coup and overturn the election. You're just running for office with good ideas DC doesn't like.

I get the argument in principle, but you gotta reckon with the Constitution, which clearly indicates that elected officials engaging in insurrection can't run for office. If you think Trump should be able to run again, advocate for a Constitutional amendment.

Donald Trump is an insurrectionist and should have been arrested and tried the week of January 6th. You just lost my vote in the primary.

Folks under 35 are being kept off the ballot because they don't meet the age requirements. Trump's being kept off the ballot because he doesn't meet the "insurrectionist" requirement.

They will openly do the most undemocratic actions writ large and are not held to account. Seems we have to fight against our own criminal government for democratic values to be enacted.

I mean the Trump one is due to a constitutional violation. Thats entirely different.
How is that equally undemocratic. Come on, Marianne, you didn't incite an insurrection.
