@NoahBookbinder Assuming it stands, which it well may not, still this only keeps Trump off the ballot for the primary, and he doesn't need Colorado to win that. So I would say this is toothless virtue signalling. But beyond that, it sets a dangerous precedent for states attempting to interfere

AR-15: Invented in 1958 (65 years ago). 9mm autopistols: Cartridge designed in 1901, first chambered in a semiautomatic pistol in 1902 (121 years ago). Hollowpoints: First introduced in the mid-1880s as rifle "express bullets" (140-ish years ago). Idiot.
