In a groundbreaking ruling, the Colorado Supreme Court has determined that former President Donald Trump engaged in insurrection, a disqualifying act according to the state's Constitution, and therefore cannot run for president in Colorado. This decision sets a precedent and raises significant legal and procedural questions.
The court's decision is the result of a trial that was allowed to proceed, unlike previous cases in Michigan and Minnesota, where the lawsuits were thrown out early on procedural grounds. The judge in this case acknowledged the weighty and unprecedented nature of the issues at hand and decided to hear the evidence and question witnesses from both sides.
