"Trump Appeals to Supreme Court Over Colorado Ballot Exclusion"
Former President Donald Trump has petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn a Colorado Supreme Court decision that disqualified him from the state's 2024 ballot, citing the 14th Amendment's insurrectionist clause. Trump's legal team argues that the question of presidential eligibility should be determined by Congress, not state courts, and that the insurrectionist ban does not apply to the presidency. The case's outcome could have national implications, as it may set a precedent for Trump's eligibility in other states. The Supreme Court's decision is pending, with primary elections approaching.
