The shocking decision by the Colorado Supreme Court Tuesday that aims to keep former President Donald Trump off the ballot for the GOP presidential primary in the state sent shockwaves across the world as angry critics continue to slam the opinion and argue that real democracies don’t work this way.

RedState’s Sister Toldjah brought you reactions earlier from Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, former New York congressman Lee Zeldin, New York Rep. Elise Stefanik, House Speaker Mike Johnson, and more:

Meanwhile, entrepreneur and presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy challenged his GOP rivals to effectively boycott the Colorado primary if the decision stands:

Even former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, also a presidential candidate and no fan of Donald Trump, slammed the opinion:

Now RFK Jr. weighed in Tuesday evening, pointing out that we call countries that play these kinds of political games undemocratic:

Speaking of foreign countries, El Salvador's president Nayib Bukele ripped us over our hypocrisy, posting to X, "The United States has lost its ability to lecture any other country about “democracy.”

The president of Judicial Watch, Tom Fitton, wrote a long post pointing out that we've stopped to the level of countries we used to excoriate; here's his conclusion:

The Democratic court majority, based solely on its partisan hatred of Trump, ruled to deprive countless Colorado voters who support Trump of the right to vote for the candidate of their choice for president. What an outrage!  

What has happened in Colorado would not be out of place in Russia, Iran, China or Venezuela: a summary kangaroo court proceeding to lawlessly bar a disfavored political opponent from office.  The US Supreme Court can't act soon enough to tamp down this act of judicial sedition. 

RedState's Nick Arama earlier brought you the story of the Trump campaign's angry written statement, but he also referenced all the Democat legal shenanigans at a Commit to Caucus even in Iowa Tuesday night:

Trump's former acting director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell also noted that banana republic stunts like this hurt our credibility across the globe. "The Pakistani high courts and the Colorado Supreme Court have both thrown the ruling party’s opponents off the ballots," he posted.

Of course, in our divided nation, you knew not all the reaction would be negative -- over at the Huffpost they're laughing and gloating about the opinion, seemingly not aware that they're gleeful about tearing down our constitutional system just because they hate Trump so much. As has become the standard, they themselves are actively doing what they accuse the other side of -- endangering democracy.

There will be plenty more opinions about this bombshell, awful decision in the coming days and weeks; you can be sure RedState will keep you up to date.
