Lindsey Graham says Trump getting kicked off poll in Colorado is ‘political decision’

Sen. Lindsey Graham slammed the Colorado Supreme Court on Sunday for eradicating former President Donald Trump from the state’s major poll, accusing the justices of getting a “hatred” for the GOP front-runner and issuing a call not based mostly in legislation.

“This Colorado Supreme Court made a political decision. In my view, there is no constitutional basis for the decision they rendered,” Mr. Graham, South Carolina Republican, stated on ABC’s “This Week.” “I think it will be a slam dunk in the Supreme Court.”

The U.S. Supreme Court will virtually definitely be pressured to take up the case now, which is a authorized argument based mostly on the 14th Amendment that Mr. Trump engaged in revolt in the course of the U.S. Capitol riot and is subsequently now not eligible to run for president.



“This ruling in Colorado is chilling to me,” Mr. Graham stated. “It would set up a politicization of the presidential races. It would be bad for the country.”
