Analysis of Supreme Court's Decision on Trump's Eligibility

The Supreme Court's decision on Trump's eligibility was complicated and unanimous. The ruling stated that states and Congress have the authority to bar candidates from running for office. In Trump's case, the Court ruled that applying the 14th amendment to disqualify him from running for office is Congress's responsibility, not the states'. This decision makes it challenging to enforce Section 3, the prohibition on insurrection as holding office, as it is unclear if Congress can only disqualify federal officeholders through legislation. This uncertainty may result in making it harder to disqualify federal officeholders, potentially requiring a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate for enforcement.
