In a pivotal decision that could shape the political future of former President Donald Trump, the United States Supreme Court has agreed to review whether he can be disqualified from running for office again. This momentous case marks the most significant election-related matter the court will hear since the infamous Bush v Gore ruling.
The court's decision to grant a review follows a petition from Trump's legal team questioning the Colorado Supreme Court's ruling that removed him from the ballot. The Colorado court based its decision on section three of the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution, known as the insurrectionist ban. This particular section bars individuals involved in an insurrection from holding future office.
