I dunno. This is pretty wild stuff. If he's left off the ballot anywhere there's going to be a lot of mad crazy people with guns.

Um, those people exist with or without this ruling or Trump. This is America!
Interestingly, this decision was brought about by a suit from Republican and independent voters.

Six Republican and independent voters from Colorado invoked the provision in a lawsuit this fall meant to keep Trump off the ballot.

Seems like there are plenty of those on the right that either believe Trump to be an existential threat to the country, or are just so tired of losing elections with him running the party that they want to get rid of him once and for all. either way, I'm good with it.
Also from the article, we get a win/win!!!

Vivek Ramaswamy, who is running against Trump for the Republican nomination, said in a statement to The Washington Post: “I pledge to withdraw from the Colorado GOP primary ballot until Trump is also allowed to be on the ballot, and I demand that Ron DeSantis, Chris Christie, and Nikki Haley to do the same immediately — or else they are tacitly endorsing this illegal maneuver which will have disastrous consequences for our country.”
