What may follow from Colorado Supreme Court’s decision that Trump is not eligible for primary ballot

 

The Colorado Supreme Court, having agreed that Trump engaged in insurrection, ruled in a 4-3 decision that Trump is disqualified from the presidency. Therefore, he is not eligible to be on the 2024 primary ballot in Colorado. Trump’s lawyers have already stated they plan to appeal the decision. Former federal prosecutor, Harry Litman, outlines the various ways in which the U.S. Supreme Court may rule if it takes up the case.
