According to Jena Griswold, the erstwhile CO Secretary of State, SCOTUS should absolutely rule that Trump is an insurrectionist. If they don’t, they are no friends of democracy.

Griswold told CNN anchor John Berman she knows that the Supreme Court has “not been friendly” to democracy the day after the body heard oral arguments in the Trump v. Anderson case on Thursday.

The state official stressed the importance of the case and noted she found it surprising that the justices did not seem to discuss whether Trump committed an “insurrection” on Jan. 6, 2021.

 This is truly laughable. Yet many of us here in CO aren’t laughing about this mess that Jena Griswold and Norma Anderson among others have dragged our state into. This case before the Supreme Court is about determining whether a state has the RIGHT to keep a NATIONAL candidate off the ballot. It is not and never has been about deciding whether Trump is or was an insurrectionist. That is an entirely different case under different statues. 

That said, I swear, Jena is going to persist until the day she dies on this hill.
