BREAKING: Vivek Ramaswamy pledges to withdraw from Colorado GOP primary unless Trump is allowed on ballot, DEMANDS DeSantis, Christie, Haley do the same

 Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy spoke out after the Colorado Supreme Court ruled that Donald Trump could be removed from the Colorado 2024 ballot for the crime of insurection, for which Trump has neither been charged nor convicted.

 

“This is what an actual attack on democracy looks like," Ramaswamy said, "in an un-American, unconstitutional, and unprecedented decision, a cabal of Democrat judges are barring Trump from the ballot in Colorado. 

Having tried every trick in the book to eliminate President Trump from running in this election, the bipartisan Establishment is now deploying a new tactic to bar him from ever holding office again: the 14th Amendment," he said.

"I pledge to withdraw from the Colorado GOP primary unless Trump is also allowed to be on the state’s ballot, and I demand that Ron DeSantis, Chris Christie, and Nikki Haley to do the same immediately—or else they are tacitly endorsing this illegal maneuver which will have disastrous consequences for our country," Ramaswamy continued

“Today’s decision is the latest election interference tactic to silence political opponents and swing the election for whatever puppet the Democrats put up this time by depriving Americans of the right to vote for their candidate of choice.
 
“The 14th Amendment was part of the ‘Reconstruction Amendments’ that were ratified following the Civil War. It was passed to prohibit former Confederate military and political leaders from holding high federal or state office. These men had clearly taken part in a rebellion against the United States: the Civil War. That makes it all the more absurd that a left-wing group in Colorado is asking a federal court to disqualify the 45th President on the same grounds, equating his speech to rebellion against the United States.

“And there’s another legal problem: Trump is not a former’ officer of the United States,’ as that term is used in the Constitution, meaning Section 3 does not apply. As the Supreme Court explained in Free Enterprise Fund v. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (2010), an ‘officer of the United States’ is someone appointed by the President to aid him in his duties under Article II, Section 2. The term does not apply to elected officials, and certainly not to the President himself," Ramaswamy continued.
 
“The Framers of the 14th Amendment would be appalled to see this narrow provision—intended to bar former U.S. officials who switched to the Confederacy from seeking public office—being weaponized by a sitting President and his political allies to prevent a former President from seeking reelection. Our country is becoming unrecognizable to our Founding Fathers," he concluded.

The suit was brought by an activist not-for-profit from DC on behalf of citizens from Colorado demanding that Trump not be permitted to run for president in the state. A lower court found in his favor, however that ruling was appealed by both the activist group and the Trump campaign as the ruling stated that Trump would not be removed, but that he had committed insurection by allegedly incicting the January 6, 2021 riot at the US Capitol. The campaign alleged that Trump had not committed an insurection.

Ramaswamy has been an advcate and supporter of Trump, saying that he is the best president of the 21st century and of his lifetime.
