"Supreme Court Showdown: Trump's Ballot Eligibility and the 14th Amendment"

TL;DR Summary
The Supreme Court is set to hear a case regarding former President Donald Trump's eligibility for the 2024 presidential race, based on the insurrection clause of the 14th Amendment. The case arose from a lawsuit filed by Colorado voters, arguing that Trump's conduct related to the Jan. 6 Capitol assault makes him ineligible for office. Trump's legal team contends that the provision does not apply to the presidency and that only Congress can enforce it. A decision against Trump could disrupt his bid for a second term, while a ruling in his favor would allow him to remain on the primary and general election ballots.
