Judge allows Trump on Michigan primary ballot as critics try to bar him

32. Not at all.

The court is irresponsible on its' face by making a ruling that in effect says "Anybody (possibly anything) can be on a primary ballot as a candidate regardless of not meeting the legal constraints called for." So in the mind of the judges imposters, non US citizens, juveniles, dead people and potted plants are all fine to appear on a primary ballot and run as candidates because, in the judges view, the ballot for the general election is where any defect can be corrected. The judges know very well how people game the deadlines, for instance with referendum questions/wording, in order to run out the clock for any correction to be made. They do so many times successfully and that is why it's used as a tactic. The states all have laws about not doing false things to confuse voters for example. The states are well within their rights, as are judges, to insure that only candidates who meet qualifications are on both primary and general election ballots.

Do you really think that the GQP would not count on running out the clock on any eligibility challenge to their candidate come November 2024? When you are disqualified by the Constitution you are from the beginning of any process for you to be a candidate and not just at the very end. The plaintiffs are appealing. Meanwhile the judges appear to be headed to candidate forums between Russians and rubber plants.
