1. Primaries are state by state

Your question makes no sense.

What can happen is that if Trump is barred from Colorado and other states he would be unable to achieve enough electoral votes to win.

4. Not necessarily

Depend on whether he wins back States won by Biden in 2020.

2. I assume he can run no matter what

Call himself the GOP and their candidate the fake GOP and probably take a huge percentage of the voters with him.

3. Answer: yes, easily.

And he'll still end up on the ballot.

5. didn't need it to win in 2016

6. I think a lot of people aren't reading your question.

We're talking about the primary, not the general.

The answers to that is

Yes, he can win the GOP nomination without any delegates from Colorado.

However, if the COSC decision holds, then you can expect other states will follow suit and also bar him from their ballots based on SCOTUS making that decision. So the better question is can Trump win the nomination without whatever states would bar him.

I think it would be pretty tough to win the primary if CA, IL, NY, MA, and a few other high population blue states followed suit, maybe not impossible but if another candidate can stand out from the pack it would get interesting.

7. Yes! I want to stop him from being nominated.

There's no way we should let him get to the GE again. It's just not worth the risk!

8. Probably...

The biggest threat to Trump from the Colorado case, is "precedent"----
(for the sake of the General Election)

but it is all up to the US Supreme Court--- presuming that they accept the case.....



I was never a big fan of 'being able to keep Trump off of election ballots because he is an insurrectionist'--
although he IS-----)



But if the Supreme Court refuses to review the Colorado case,
it could be another matter.....
