Republicans Team Up to Remove Biden From State Ballots: 'Unfair, Abuse of Power'                                             Sarah Arnold / Townhall Tipsheet 

Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL.) mulled the idea of taking President Joe Biden off of his state's 2024 primary ballot after the Colorado Supreme Court kicked former President Trump from its 2024 GOP primary ballot.

"There was no trial on any of this,” DeSantis said. “They basically just said, what, you can’t be on the ballot? I mean, how does that work?”

DeSantis said the ruling has no “limiting principle” and that other states could remove Biden for "constitutional violations" if Colorado could do it.

“Could we just say that Biden can’t be on the ballot because he let in 8 million illegals into the country and violated the constitution, which he has?” DeSantis continued. “Can we just say, oh, well, they have money coming to Hunter [Biden]?”

The governor called it unfair and accused the Colorado Supreme Court of abusing its power. 

"They’re doing all this stuff to basically solidify support in the primary for [Trump], get him into the general, and the whole general election is going to be all this legal stuff," he said, adding, "I think they have a playbook that unfortunately will work. It will give Biden, or the Democrat or whoever, the ability to skate through this thing. That’s their plan. That’s what they want.” Read more, see Xs and video here.
