Taylor Sheridan, leading television producer and co-creator of hit shows yellowstonecondemned the Colorado Supreme Court's ruling last week that Donald Trump should be removed from the state's 2024 election ballot.
Appeared in joe rogan experience On January 4, Sheridan called the partisan court's move “dangerous.”
Specifically, what Mr. Sheridan said about removing Mr. Trump from the ballot was, “That's dangerous as hell.”
“People can think what they want to think about Donald Trump. It doesn't really matter who that person is,” Sheridan explained.
“The courts in Colorado are essentially going to make a decision based on a trial that hasn't happened yet. They're basically saying he's guilty of something that hasn't been tried. , they are excluding him from the ballot,” the TV producer pointed out.
Mr. Sheridan went on to say that the court had set a very dangerous precedent.
“Perhaps now Democrats are so afraid of what Donald Trump will do if he becomes president again that they feel justified in their actions, but they don't know what to expect in 20, 30 years. Are you thinking about it happening? Has it been established yet?'' he asked.
Sheridan then remembered the 2000 election.
“People forgot that Al Gore and the Democrats — and I didn't vote for George W. Bush — contested that election at the time. They said it was rigged. . They took it to the Supreme Court. In fact, we haven't had a president for almost two months,” he said.
