TL;DR Summary

The Colorado Supreme Court heard arguments regarding Trump's eligibility to appear on the state's Republican primary ballot under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which disqualifies individuals who have engaged in "insurrection or rebellion" against the U.S. A Denver District Court previously ruled that Trump should be on the ballot despite finding that he incited insurrection during the attack on the U.S. Capitol. Both Trump's legal team and the watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) appealed the ruling. The outcome of this case could potentially be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
