DENVER (AP) — The Colorado judge overseeing the first significant lawsuit to bar former President Donald Trump from the state’s 2024 presidential ballot on Friday issued a protective order prohibiting threats and intimidation in the case, saying the safety of those involved — including herself and her staff — was necessary as the groundbreaking litigation moves forward.
“I 100% understand everybody’s concerns for the parties, the lawyers, and frankly myself and my staff based on what we’ve seen in other cases,” District Judge Sarah B. Wallace said as she agreed to the protective order.
The order prohibits parties in the case from making threatening or intimidating statements. Scott Gessler, a former Colorado secretary of state representing Trump in the case, opposed it. He said a protective order was unnecessary because threats and intimidation already are prohibited by law.
Trumps violent group of degenerates certainly will do anything to protect Trump from justice.
In their world, Trump won, their party did things to secure elections, now that surely Trump will win, the Democrats are creating "trumped up" charges to prevent him from even running and trying to throw him in jail.
... I can understand why someone who sees the world that way would be very very angry about this. It's not factually accurate, but I understand the perspective.
I refuse to indulge the perspective.
Don't normalize this weaponized idiocy. They're violent assclowns and mindless, frothing cultists with nothing higher on their list of priorities than feeding their greed. No tolerance necessary.
Duhamizing people, even those that are incorrect, is corrosive to a functional society.
Tell that to your Ukrainian neighbor, see how far that gets you.
I certainly do not care about what people who ignore facts, truth and laws “believe” I dismiss their absurd falsehoods as do the courts.
Love to see the attempt. Thin out the GOP voters rolls a bit.
