Absolutely there was. As a Colorado resident, this trial has been in the news for weeks or months. Trump got every bit of due process - motions, briefings, rulings, and a trial. It looked like it was done very carefully, at least by the courts (district court ruled first), the Republican and independent plaintiffs, and 3rd parties like the CO Republican party. The reason the CO supreme Court ruled was because of appeals by both Trump and the plaintiffs. Hard to imagine more due process was possible.
Chief Justice Brian D. Boatright, in his dissent, wrote that the "absence of an insurrection-related conviction" against Trump should have called for the case to be dismissed.
You're grasping at straws. This was a civil case. I don't know why you're demanding a conviction. CO Secretary of State Jena Griswold was the respondent, I believe.
Beyond that, are you objecting because the vote wasn't unanimous? Lots of very controversial SCOTUS votes have been 5-4. We all live with them. Wait, are you a CO voter? If not, then you don't have to live with this decision. As it happens, I am a CO voter, so I am glad there was due process and it was decided correctly.

Stuff of kangaroo court.

Often times dissenting juror's opinion makes for an excellent point.
