TL;DR Summary

During oral arguments over Colorado's attempt to remove Donald Trump from the Republican primary ballot, the Supreme Court justices avoided addressing whether the events of Jan. 6 constituted an insurrection. Instead, they focused on legal technicalities and the authority of states to enforce Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. The court appears likely to rule in favor of Trump on other grounds, allowing them to sidestep the contentious insurrection issue. The case raises concerns about potential chaos in future elections and the unease of the justices in reviewing state court rulings.
