An Illinois state judge on Wednesday barred Donald Trump from appearing on the Illinois’ Republican presidential primary ballot because of his role in the attack at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, but she delayed her ruling from taking effect in light of an expected appeal by the former U.S president.
The election is won in court because GOP chose to support an insurrectionist. They could’ve chosen someone who shouldn’t be barred from holding office.
There’s nothing to be mixed about, unless you believe insurrectionists should be able to hold office.
