Back in August, when Donald Trump became the only former or sitting president to have a mug shot taken, the 45th president took to Truth Social with an ominous warning: “America is becoming a Banana Republic. That’s what happens when you Indict and Prosecute your Political Opponent. These are DARK DAYS in the life of America!” 

But the Left hasn’t stopped since then. In addition to facing 91 charges across four criminal cases, Trump has now been told by Colorado’s state Supreme Court he is disqualified from the primary ballot under the 14th Amendment over his role in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
