In a surprising turn of events, the Colorado Supreme Court made a ruling last night regarding former President Trump's eligibility to be on Colorado's ballot. Citing the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution, which prohibits insurrectionists from holding office, the court concluded that Trump is not eligible to appear on the state's ballot. However, this decision is far from final, as it is now up to the US Supreme Court to determine the validity of the ruling.
The crux of the matter lies in whether Trump's alleged role in the January 6 insurrection at the Capitol would disqualify him from running for office. Supporters of the ruling argue that the insurrection clearly violates the 14th Amendment, and therefore, Trump should not be allowed to hold a spot on the ballot. However, critics argue that this decision is nothing but a political stunt and an attempt by his opponents to undermine his candidacy.
