Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick (R) on Tuesday suggested taking President Biden off the ballot in Texas due to his handling of immigration, citing the Colorado Supreme Court’s ruling to kick former President Trump off the state’s ballot.
“Seeing what happened in Colorado tonight … makes me think — except we believe in democracy in Texas — maybe we should take Joe Biden off the ballot in Texas for allowing 8 million people to cross the border since he’s been president, disrupting our state far more than anything anyone else has done in recent history,” Patrick said in an interview with Fox News anchor Laura Ingraham.
The Colorado Supreme Court on Tuesday handed the Trump campaign a major blow, ruling the former president should be kicked off the state’s Republican primary ballot under the 14th Amendment, due to his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack.

I don't really care we just need a good president.
@9HQ8KYR5mos5MO
Why are they trying to remove Biden?
@9HQ8F7D5mos5MO
Unless Biden is or was involved in an insurrection there is no basis to remove him from the ballot. I don't agree with the 14th amendment, I think trump should have to be convicted first, but that's not what the amendment says, so the removal of trump is in fact constitutional.
@9HQD7V65mos5MO
The reasoning behind removing Biden from the ballot is baseless.

I don’t like Biden but banning him from the ballot is insanely un-democratic
@9HQ99395mos5MO
It is about the United States, not a different country.

I think the judicial "wheeling and dealing" to remove Trump from the ballot is asinine, and it's purely a personal attack against Donald Trump (he has yet to be convicted of any felonies or misdemeanors in a court of law, and there's no Constitutional and/or political party rule that prevents him from running, as much as I or anyone else may dislike him personally). It doesn't surprise me that the Republicans are playing just as childishly as the Democrats are, because it seems that neither party is particularly interested in public service over manipulation, power, & control over the populace at the cost of individual liberties.
@9HQCRDMIndependent5mos5MO
partisan weaponization if the judiciary further erodes trust in our government and undermines democracy.
@9HQHX5W4mos4MO
The topic I chose for today's new about Texas Lt. The government suggests removing Biden from the Ballot matters because there are people that rarely watch the news and must know why the President of the US is suggested to be removed from the Ballot.
It's ridiculous political theater
@9HQH7964mos4MO
Biden needs to be removed as fast as possible. He is makes our country look like a joke and is a terrible representative to the world of how great America is.
@9HQGGKD4mos4MO
Even though it is Biden. Everyone should have the right to vote.
@9HQBP7Y5mos5MO
I think it’s retaliation for Colorado. And stupid.
@9HQ8RP85mos5MO
Its right, Biden is an idiot, and has done nothing but diminish our country.
@9HQG8S94mos4MO
The Texas Lt. Gov is being petty and unreasonable because he is upset that his orange master got removed in a different state for valid reasons
