  1. This country is Fd I mean the guy hasn't even been charged with anything

  2. That's fine. We'll just write him in.

  3. He’ll be president again. Come back to this comment on Election Day, then you can tell me I’m wrong! 🇺🇸 God bless America and all those who love their beautiful country 🇺🇸

  4. Which is stupid it's going to go to the Supreme Court

  5. I'm not saying Trump should be president again but the amendment is clear. No Supreme Court is going to force him from a Ballot. I'm made you guys are going to waste millions in tax dollars doing this.

  6. “CONSTITUTIONALLY ineligible “??? Silly me. And here I was thinking the Constitution provided for due process?

  7. What’s the plan when he gets back in office and successfully rips DOJ and the courts out by the roots? Just blame SC for not rising to the threat and just say good game, it was fun while it lasted?

  8. So can these people
    in these states that blocked trump,
    vote in any other state by any chance?

  9. These people trying there best to keep there war genocide going.

  10. I am almost sure that U.S. Supreme Court Justices Alito, Thomas and Gorsuch et al are already practicing their mental gymnastics in trying to find a reason how to keep Orange Jesus on the ballots of various states, notwithstanding that some states may have (state) laws that disqualifies Dolt45 from appearing on their ballots for engaging in an attempted insurrection on Jan 6.

    TRUMP'S CANDIDACY INTERFERES WITH A FAIR 2024 U.S. ELECTION

  11. How can Trump be removed from the ballot due to insurrection, even though here has not had his day in court and was not convicted in a court of law? Maine has not been judicious in their decision by not giving Trump his due process. Innocent until prove guilty in a court of law.

  12. All I know is enough is enough 2024 , no trump, no Biden Time TO move on pathetic DONKEIES to much DRAMA
    With Trump ??? He is NOT above The LAW, stop putting him on a pedestal,HE IS NOT THE MAN FOR OUR COUNTRY HES OLNY FOR HIMSELF HE'S
    NOT FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, HE'S A HATER

  13. we'll call the reporter do I had one time she just start to talk bombshell news

  14. She is completely wrong. She is rude !

  15. This all means they are TERRIFIED and will do ANYTHING to keep this man grom tearing down their free cash flow that benefits criminals so much. Period! End of story! Its all so very clear now.

  16. They are trying to rig the election way before the first ballot is cast.

  17. If Trump is reelected to President what makes you think he will ever leave office. Currently President are in office for 8 years but that is not written in stone. He could be in office until he dies.

  18. These idiots just can’t see to get it right. Any attrition that Trumps campaign may have experienced will be strengthened by stupid stuff like this.

  19. This is the end of democracy!

  20. They're afraid of him because that guy knows how to lead.

  21. The Dems are scared. They will do anything to stop Trump succeeding. Using these kind of tactics they shouldn't even be in power in this state. It's disgraceful.

  22. Iam curious how all this is a democratic process. It almost seems that states are abusing powers to prevent this man from winning 2024

  23. Trump hate people who follow the Constitution, what is the constitution the law of the land, why the man who want to be president don't want to uphold the constitution,the last time he takes that oat he later trample the constitution and refuse to follow it some country that,s treason.

  24. Watch how many people just don't vote lol. Goofys

  25. She needs to reread the constitution because Trump hasn't been convicted of anything

  26. What happened to "We, the people…"? Are the communist appointing the US president from now on?

  27. You need to just accept the fact that people don't want you around anymore because you're a bully. That's why Maine kicked you off the ballot!!

  28. They don’t have the power to do that and they know it. They will lose to challenges and they know it. Which is why they should be tried for election interference themselves.

  29. Why does this need programme fail to explain WHY he's been taken off the ballot?

  30. """""Maine Democrat who barred Trump from ballot met with Biden twice, called Electoral College 'white supremacy""""""

    So in today's news, strange qanon type conspiracies cause blowback on Trump campaign that may be part of a white supremacy group that have taken over the electoral college system.

  31. Look at those kids behind him,not wearing a mask!
    It take guts to take all that stinky aroma to take it all in!

  32. Well that communist action..
    Will promptly be thrown out by U.S. Supreme Court

  33. THANK YOU Ms. Bellows for DOING YOUR JOB; upholding your country’s constitution, as you swore to do……WITHOUT FEAR OR FAVOR! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

    Allllll you bible toting, Word quoting Christian’s, thank you for your thoughts and prayers being lifted towards your sister! Remember the Word of your lawwwwwwd in Isaiah 54:17!

    SELAH! 🙌🏻🙏🏻

  34. This is the BEST NEWS TO FINISH '23. Supreme court knows he's a POS! They will decline and he will go down in history as a LOSER, YOU'RE FIRED!
