NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Fox News host Laura Ingraham shared her thoughts on Donald Trump’s recent removal from the Colorado ballot and said that any decision preventing voters from deciding ex-POTUS’ fate would “immediately discredit” the 2024 election.

Ingraham made these comments after the former President’s disqualification from the Colorado ballot as the Supreme Court cited a violation of the 14th Amendment “insurrectionist ban."

Following this news, Ingraham shared her take with her followers.

However, she was brutally slammed by the internet as several people called her out for backing Trump.



 

Laura Ingraham backs Donald Trump

Fox News host Laura Ingraham took to Facebook and wrote, “Laura: Biden's blatant attack on democracy will destroy his credibility.”

In her monologue titled 'How to Save Democracy', she said, "How to save democracy. That's the focus of tonight's Angle. The most dangerous people in the United States tonight, they're not Donald Trump supporters.”

She continued, “The most dangerous people in the United States tonight are those who are suggesting that somehow a court can just vaporize the candidacy of the leading presidential contender and not do long-term damage to the country and its institutions.”

“Now, these people are delusional. They actually think that if a court successfully bars the frontrunner from the 2024 race, that the election is just going to go on as normal, that all is going to be well, that life is going to go on as usual. They're kidding themselves. Now, let's be clear,” she said.

“Any decision that prevents the voters from deciding Donald Trump's fate would immediately discredit the next year's election, both at home and abroad. Period. Whoever ultimately is declared the winner of such an election would never be accepted as a legitimate president by at least half of the country and most of the world, frankly,” she added.

Ingraham further said, “Now, Biden's student loan forgiveness sham –  remember where the Supreme Court slaps down that unconstitutional move and we all go on, you know, that's what we need to happen here. Where the court comes in and says, no. That would actually be the best case scenario for the Democrats, believe it or not.”

“That they just look like a bunch of desperate nuts, right? Who tried to do something that was blatantly illegal. The results, if they block Trump, though, well, much, much worse,” she stated.

The Fox News host continued, “Now, yesterday, I suggested that the White House act for the good of the country by insisting that courts not interfere with the ability of the Republican Party to pick its own nominee, and for that matter, he should really call off the dogs in the DOJ, in New York, Georgia-- use all his influence to do that.”

Ingraham also said, "It all has to stop. But of course, Joe Biden never focuses on what's good for the country. He cares only about enriching himself and his family, and he thinks the best way to do that is to placate the extreme left.”

She concluded, “So today, the great defender of democracy decided to support the torpedoing of democracy.”



 

Internet calls Laura Ingraham a ‘disgrace’

After Laura Ingraham shared her opinion on Donald Trump’s removal from the Colorado ballot, many X users slammed the host.

One person wrote, “Your a disgrace @IngrahamAngle,” and another added, “Does Fox host a course on how to lie with a straight face?”



 



 

An X user simply slammed Ingraham, “What nonsense you spew,” and another said, “Sorry, but she works for the enemy!”



 



 

One more person said, “Here’s the truth — when Laura Ingraham says “here’s the truth” whatever comes next is definitely a lie.”



 

Another called out Ingraham, “Sadly you are a mess and a train wreck of refuse.”
