TL;DR Summary

The Colorado Supreme Court has disqualified former President Donald Trump from appearing on the state's 2024 presidential primary ballot, citing the 14th Amendment's Disqualification Clause. This marks the first time a state's high court has applied the clause to both the presidency and the actions of a former president. The Trump campaign plans to appeal the ruling to the United States Supreme Court. If the case is still ongoing by the certification deadline, the court ordered Trump's name to be included on the primary ballot. Three justices dissented, arguing jurisdiction, due process, and lack of time for an expedited hearing.
