"Supreme Court's Decision on Trump's Ballot Eligibility Looms"

Donald Trump is arguing for the Supreme Court to keep his name on the presidential ballot in Colorado and claims immunity from criminal prosecution. While he has shown up at recent civil trials, it's unlikely he will attend the Supreme Court arguments, as the court strictly limits who can present arguments. The high court's decorum and rules make it less likely for Trump to be the star of a courthouse drama, unlike in lower courts where he faced rebukes for making disparaging comments and violating gag orders. Trump has expressed optimism in the court, having appointed three of the nine members, and hopes for an easy decision in another case expected to reach the high court about his immunity from criminal prosecution.
