Colorado Supreme Court Decision: Disqualifying Trump Under the 14th Amendment
The Colorado Supreme Court recently made a historic decision to disqualify Donald Trump under the 14th Amendment. They concluded that he engaged in insurrection, which falls under the language of the Amendment, and therefore is disqualified from being on the Colorado primary ballot. The court rejected the argument that the presidency is exempt from the Amendment, stating that it would be odd to exclude the most powerful position in the government. The court also found that Trump's actions during the January 6th Capitol insurrection support the finding of insurrection. While the decision was not unanimous, the dissents did not strongly challenge the majority's reasoning. The case has potential implications beyond Colorado, as other states may consider similar actions to disqualify Trump from their primary ballots.
