Trump Appeals to Supreme Court Over Colorado Ballot Exclusion

Former President Donald Trump's legal team has appealed to the US Supreme Court to overturn a Colorado Supreme Court ruling that disqualifies him from the state's 2024 Republican primary ballot, citing his alleged involvement in an insurrection. The Colorado court's decision is based on the 14th Amendment's Insurrection Clause, but Trump's attorneys argue that the question of eligibility should be reserved for Congress and that the state court overstepped its authority. The Colorado Supreme Court has stayed its ruling pending the appeal, and the case has implications for Trump's eligibility in other states as well.
