Earlier this week, the Colorado State Supreme Court determined in a 4-3 ruling that Trump is ineligible under the 14th Amendment to appear on the ballot in the state. This nonsensical ruling essentially declares that even though Trump has never been convicted of, much less tried with sedition or participating in an insurrection, he is nevertheless guilty of such. The ruling is bound to be taken up by the Supreme Court, and experts on both sides of the aisle believe it will be promptly overturned.
But that doesn’t change the fact that four justices in the highest court in the state of Colorado voted so egregiously. But there’s something that might explain why.
Of course, the obvious thing is that the justices who sided against Trump were all appointed by Democrats. But even that doesn’t fully explain everything because all seven of the justices were Democrat-appointed. But, there is something that separately the 4 justices who voted to ban Trump from ballot and the three who didn’t.
Three of the four justices who voted against Trump were Ivy League graduates.
