Trump Off The Ballot in Colorado, Helps Increase His Poll Numbers

With no trial, jury, or presentation of offense or defensive stance on whether President Donald Trump's speech and words led to a level of insurrection under the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, the Colorado Supreme Court removed Trump from the ballot.  Discussing the implications of this decision, Hector and Mike point out an unexpected twist. What would typically spell the end for most campaigns has become a boon for Trump. Republicans who previously withheld their endorsement are now rallying behind him in opposition to the CO Supreme Court's decision. Even Trump's fiercest critic, California Governor Gavin Newsom (a staunch Democrat), has criticized the CO Supreme Court's overreach. In an ironic turn of events, Trump's opponents now defend him.  This decision by the CO Supreme Court is making the case that Democrats in power are persecuting Trump, as the Democratic preferred candidate's poll numbers are cratering. This seems like election interference is what the Trump team is saying and it is working to solidify the base.  There's a looming threat that could spell trouble for the Biden team. If the U.S. Supreme Court decides to step in and overturn the CO Supreme Court's decision, the political landscape could shift dramatically.  Trump the Martyr.
