We're gonna hang Jeff Davis from a sour apple tree

That was sung by Union soldiers during the Civil War.  Jefferson Davis, as you probably know, was the president of the Confederacy, the group of states that fought against the government of the United States.  You may also remember that the Confederacy lost that war.


Now we have another gentleman who fought against the government of the United States, sending a mob to prevent the Congress from certifying the President of the United States who was elected in a fair and free election.


That man should no more be allowed to run for President of this country than Jefferson Davis would have been.  Today the Colorado Supreme Court agreed and said he could not legally be on the ballot.  The Court didn’t go as far as saying he should hang from a sour apple tree, however.
