Colorado Supreme Court Disqualifies Trump from 2024 Ballot

The Colorado Supreme Court has ruled in a 4-3 decision that former President Donald Trump cannot appear on the state's 2024 presidential election ballot due to his role in the January 6 Capitol riot. The court cited the 14th Amendment, which bars those who engaged in insurrection from holding office. While the decision is stayed until early January and may be overturned by the US Supreme Court, it sets a precedent for other states to potentially follow suit. Trump has vowed to appeal the ruling, and some Republicans are considering retaliatory action against President Joe Biden.
