Donald Trump's legal team as early as Tuesday could appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court the Colorado Supreme Court decision barring him from the GOP primary ballot.
they can absolutely stall on this and concede Colorado and Maine without either declaring the president to be above the law or giving other states the legal impetus to kick him off their ballots too. Right now he’s polling so far ahead that he can give up two states without endangering the nomination. If the court sees no choice except to either ignore the case or get him kicked off in every state, they’ll ignore it.
I was wrong originally about the scope of this though, and thank you for your correction there.
