    I’ll go out on a limb and say it emboldens anyone that thinks the swamp is rigging the entire system against him, making him some kind of martyr for the cause and rallying people to vote.

    For my part I think it may open the floodgates to other states to do the same thing. Would those other states have ever gone Red in the election? Up for debate, but if they do they’ll have to go red for another candidate.

      Do those people really need more emboldening to vote for Trump?

      Like, how many people can possibly be in the “I wasn’t sure, but now I’m gonna vote for Trump because he was taken off of some other state’s ballot” camp?

      Seems like the bad-faith actors that will vote for Trump no matter what want to push the narrative that banning him from ballots actually helps him.

      I think it’s up to us to rise above their stupidity and manipulation, even if others have not.
