Trump's Troubles Unite Experts and Spark Withdrawal in Colorado GOP Primary
Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy has pledged to withdraw from the Colorado GOP primary ballot in solidarity with former President Donald Trump, who has been ruled ineligible to run in the state due to his involvement in the January 6 insurrection. Ramaswamy called on his fellow 2024 GOP primary opponents to do the same. The Colorado Supreme Court disqualified Trump from running, citing his violation of the 14th Amendment. Ramaswamy criticized the court's decision and stated that he believes every remaining Republican candidate will withdraw from the ballot. The Colorado Republican Party responded, noting that they would shift to a party-run caucus if the ruling stands, potentially triggering a rule change from the Republican National Committee.
