Trump Appeals to Supreme Court Over Colorado Ballot Exclusion
TL;DR
Former President Donald Trump has petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to reverse a decision by Colorado's highest court that disqualified him from the state's 2024 presidential primary ballot. This action follows his alleged involvement in the January 6 Capitol riot. Trump's legal team argues that the event does not meet the definition of insurrection, challenging the application of the 14th Amendment's Section 3, which prohibits individuals who have participated in insurrection from holding office.
