Colorado’s highest court has ruled that Donald Trump is disqualified for the presidency and should be removed from 2024 ballots, an unprecedented order finding him constitutionally ineligible from holding office over his role in engaging in the January 6 attack on the US Capitol.
A historic ruling from the Colorado Supreme Court on Tuesday was the first among any state supreme court to consider the question of his or any other candidate’s eligibility, following a wave of lawsuits challenging his presidential candidacy under the US Constitution’s “insurrection” clause.
