If this goes to the Supreme Court I would not be shocked if Trump loses.

After reading more on this, now I am betting the SCOTUS will reverse this very easily. Michigan ruled that since primary elections are a private affair conducted by the duopoly, the secretary of state has no legal grounds to interfere. I had forgotten that primaries are not state sanctioned elections, so Trump will get a reversal on this. The risk is that if they uphold this, another fifteen states or so will follow suit leading to serious civil consequences.
On the other hand, I do wish a lot of other states follow suit before SCOTUS makes their ruling.
Perhaps the Colorado's justices have accomplished what they set out to accomplish, determining that Trump is an Insurrectionist and a Traitor.
