MSNBC frequent guest and NYT editorial board member Mara Gay just blasted anyone criticizing the Colorado Supreme Court ruling barring Trump from the ballot in that state as “standing with confederates who betrayed this country.”

If you look at everything that has happened and is happening in this country since Biden took office it’s pretty clear who is actually betraying this country.

BRZEZINSKI: “Wow. Donald Trump’s 2024 Republican rivals are backing him against the Colorado court decision. Posting on social media Florida Governor Ron DeSantis called the ruling tantamount to abusing judicial power, and wrote SCOTUS should reverse. Here’s former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley and former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie.”

[Clip starts]

Haley: “We don’t need to have judges making these decisions. We need voters to make these decisions. So I want to see this in the hands of the voters. We’re going to win this the right way. We’re going to do what we need to do. The last thing we want is judges telling us who can and can’t be on a ballot.”

Christie: “I do not believe Donald Trump should be prevented from being president of the United States by any court. I think he should be prevented from being president of the United States by the voters of this country.”

SCARBOROUGH: “The only candidate for president who didn’t immediately condemn the ruling was former Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson. So Mara, what — what — what do you —“

BRZEZINSKI: “I think his statement’s actually very interesting. He says —

SCARBOROUGH: “The Colorado Supreme Court — OK, go — go ahead put his — put put his statement —“ [crosstalk]

BRZEZINSKI: “Here is Asa Hutchinson statement. ‘The factual finding that he supported insurrection will haunt his candidacy.”

SCARBOROUGH: “So, Mara Gay, what do you — what do you say to the — to the Republican candidates argument that this should be — the voters should have the say and not the courts?”

GAY: “Why are you standing with confederates who betrayed this country? And this is what they’re standing with, is the spirit of those confederates rather than the Americans who came together after a long and brutal civil war that was fought to keep the union together and saw clearly saw a threat in ex-confederates running for office, so much so that they amended the Constitution to prevent those traitors from running for office. That should send a message that our election system, our electoral system, can be used for nefarious purposes against the democracy itself. It’s clear — it’s clear as day.”
