Colorado Supreme Court to Decide on Trump's Eligibility for Future Elections

The Colorado Supreme Court heard arguments on whether the US Constitution's ban on insurrectionists holding public office applies to former President Donald Trump due to the January 6 Capitol riot. The court appeared divided, with justices questioning whether the ban applies to presidents and pushing back on arguments from both Trump and the challengers. The decision is expected to be appealed to the US Supreme Court. Similar lawsuits enforcing the insurrectionist ban have failed in other states, allowing Trump to remain on the ballot. The Colorado justices are reviewing a ruling that concluded Trump engaged in an insurrection but argued that the disqualification clause doesn't apply to the presidency.
