An Illinois state judge on Wednesday barred Donald Trump from appearing on the Illinois’ Republican presidential primary ballot because of his role in the attack at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, but she delayed her ruling from taking effect in light of an expected appeal by the former U.S president.

    Correct me if I’m wrong but being removed from the primary ballot has no real standing for general election. It doesn’t matter that he can’t be on the primary when the GOP has chosen him already. It’s just posturing. He hasn’t lost any electoral votes.

            I just said I didn’t understand your comment. That was your chance to explain to me what you meant or what I was missing. Instead you turned to insults. So I’ll just assume not only was your comment wrong and you couldn’t explain yourself, you took it personally. That’s all the clarification I needed. Cheers!
