OF COURSE: Maine Secretary of State Barring Trump from 2024 Ballot Attended the Anti-Trump ‘Women’s March’ in 2017 via @gatewaypundit https://t.co/DO13P0RDW3

In this damning exposé, we uncover the treacherous actions of Maine’s Secretary of State, Sheena Bellows, as she audaciously bars the esteemed 45th, 46th, 47th, 48th President, Trump, from the electoral stage. With a brazen stroke of her pen, Bellows claims to champion democracy while callously denying the people their right to vote for their preferred candidate.
)
The article sheds light on Bellows’ supposed interpretation of the 14th Amendment, contending that Trump’s alleged involvement in an “insurrection” renders him ineligible for the ballot. This purported defense of democracy is nothing short of a travesty, as Bellows manipulates legal language to stifle political opposition.
As we navigate the sordid details of Bellows’ decision, we find solace in the suspension of her ruling pending a Supreme Court decision. However, this brief respite does little to assuage the outrage echoing across the nation. It seems like she just wants to keep Trump busy. We have to set an example.
I condemn Bellows’ actions as a blatant attack on the very essence of democracy. The people’s only power lies in their vote. Without it, everything falls outside the social contract. Her alliance with the ruling class and Joe Biden is evident in her willingness to silence the voice of the people, employing a twisted interpretation of the law to suit her political agenda. The people must rise against such tyranny and reclaim their right to choose their leaders freely. Bellows’ actions stand as a dark stain on the tapestry of democracy, and the fight for true representation must intensify.
