House Republican Conference Chair Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., released a statement Tuesday night, blasting the ruling of the Colorado Supreme Court to disqualify Donald Trump from the state’s primary as “unprecedented, constant and illegal election interference.”
House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., called the decision “reckless.”
The condemnation from conservatives poured in quickly.
“This is insane. In the US, we don’t allow political hacks to kick their ‘enemies’ off the ballot because they disagree with them. If this is the path that radical Dems choose to weaponize the courts against conservatives, we are no better than the socialist regimes in VZ & Cuba,” Florida Republican Sen. Rick Scott said in a post.
“The ‘pro-democracy’ party at work. How ridiculous,” said House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, in a post.
