In a recent development, the Colorado Supreme Court's decision to ban former President Donald Trump from running has faced strong criticism from Republicans. Leading the charge against this decision is Chris Christie, notably not a fan of Trump himself. He expressed his belief that the court should not have the power to prevent Trump from running, stating that it should be up to the voters of the country to make that decision.
Responding to this ruling, the Colorado GOP took to Twitter, declaring, 'We will never surrender. Please help us keep Trump on the ballot and fight this election interference.' The Chairman of the Colorado Republican Party, Dave Williams, weighed in on this declaration, expressing his party's adamant opposition to the court's decision.
Williams stated that he believes the ruling is absurd and the party will do everything in its power to protect the rights of voters in Colorado and nationwide. The party intends to appeal the decision to the United States Supreme Court and refuses to back down from the fight. Williams even mentioned the possibility of withdrawing from the primary and adopting a caucus process to ensure their voters have the opportunity to choose Trump if they wish to do so.

He further criticized the decision, labeling it as un-American and election interference. Williams emphasized the importance of letting the people decide through their votes, echoing the sentiments of influential figures like Chris Christie and Vivek Ramaswamy.
With the Colorado Republican primary scheduled for March 5th, there is a pressing urgency for the Supreme Court to reach a speedy decision on the matter. The GOP in Colorado is counting on the Court granting a writ of certiorari promptly, allowing for a resolution before the primary. They fear that if this issue is drawn out, other cases across the country could arise, seeking to remove Donald Trump from the ballot.
Despite the ruling suggesting Trump's involvement in an insurrection, Williams dismissed this claim. He pointed out that the majority of justices in the Colorado Supreme Court have been appointed by radical Democrats, indicating a potential bias. Williams highlighted that Trump has not been charged or convicted of insurrection and argued that due process should be followed before limiting people's right to vote.
When asked about other Republican candidates potentially withdrawing from the Colorado primary, Williams responded that if the court's decision remains, the party itself will withdraw from the primary altogether. They refuse to allow their voters to be disenfranchised by what they view as radical justices making decisions that impact the candidate choices available to the American public.
In conclusion, the Colorado GOP is vehemently opposing the Colorado Supreme Court's decision to ban Donald Trump from running for president again. They plan to appeal the ruling to the Supreme Court and are prepared to withdraw from the primary if necessary in order to protect the rights of their voters. The party views the decision as an unjust limitation on the democratic process and stands firm in their belief that the voters should be the ultimate decision-makers.
