All eyes are on the U.S. Supreme Court as they are set to potentially determine whether former President Donald Trump is eligible for Colorado's presidential ballot and other states that have raised similar concerns. The issue at hand revolves around the 14th Amendment of the Constitution, which states that individuals who engage in insurrection are disqualified from holding future public office.
The Colorado State Supreme Court has already ruled that this disqualification applies to Trump due to his alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election, which culminated in the January 6th attack on the Capitol. However, the Constitution does not provide clear guidelines on how to enforce this ban or define what constitutes insurrection, leaving these gaps to be addressed by the U.S. Supreme Court.
