Trump Has Complete Mental Breakdown After Being Booted From Colorado Ballot

Donald Trump took the news that he'd been booted off the ballot in the state of Colorado about as well as you'd expect, and he spent the next day ranting like a lunatic on Truth Social. Trump began by reposting clips of some of his favorite Fox News anchors being outraged at the news, and Trump added his own commentary to each clip, usually calling it "election interference." But the election interference came from him, and that's why he's in this mess to begin with. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what happened.

Believe it or not, Donald Trump is actually taking the news that he has been kicked off the ballot in the state of Colorado a little bit better than I thought he would. Now, having said that, he still totally lost his mind when the decision came down on Tuesday evening, and he spent the next, well, he spent that evening and the next day just absolutely going berserk on truth social, but not in the way that I kind of thought he would. You know, typically when Donald Trump gets angry at any kind of court decision, he'll go on there, he'll attack the judge, he'll attack, you know, the, the court room people. He will attack the plaintiffs, he'll attack the plaintiff's lawyers. But he didn't really do that this time. Instead, what Donald Trump did was just became an echo chamber for Fox News when he decided to just repost their clips with his own commentary, or sometimes just pulling a direct quote outta the interview and posting that.

But there's a lot of 'em. Meteorite did a nice little compilation of what Trump did. So let's start at the beginning. The first one was he quoted, uh, Laura Ingram, who said, quote, tonight, America's seeing the ultimate inter election interference. Then he posted another Fox News clip where Trump wrote It is not good for our country at all. He then pulled another Fox clip and quoted, uh, saying quote, they don't want the voters to decide this. There is obviously this deep fear of Donald Trump potentially winning the White House back. He then quoted Greg Jarret as saying quote, this is election rigging. This is an effort to make no mistake to deprive American voters of their right to make the decision as to who should be president. It is anti-democratic. It is the equivalent of rigging the ballot box. He then quoted Charlie Hurt saying, quote, Democrats in Colorado are so afraid of allowing American voters to vote and pick the next president.

They're willing to do extra judicial, extra judicial things in order to thwart put the people's choice from being on the ballot. To them preserving democracy requires destroying democracy. He then posted a clip from Jesse Waters where he just said election interference. And then he posted a clip, a clip, uh, uh, a quote, excuse me, from Jonathan Turley, where he said, quote, this country is a powder keg, and this court is just throwing matches at it for people that say they're trying to protect democracy. This is hands down, the most anti-democratic opinion I've seen in my lifetime. Cool. All of these are wrong. The Colorado State Supreme Court used the insurrection clause of the 14th Amendment of the United States Constitution. If you have a problem with that, then you have a problem with the Constitution of the United States. Now that, that to me actually seems very anti-democratic. It seems anti-American, to be honest. 'cause you're out there saying the constitution's. And if that's your opinion, then I'm sorry. That's about

As un-American as you can get, because that is our document. That is what guides the laws, the rules, the people of this country. And if you're saying it's crap, then everything else has to be crap too. So you wanna talk about being anti-democratic, anti-American. It's these people and moaning about the constitution literally being upheld by a court. You want to talk about election interference? Well, that's what got you in this whole mess to begin with, isn't it, Donald?
