In a groundbreaking decision, a 4-3 court ruling in Colorado disqualified Donald Trump from the primary election due to his involvement in the Capitol riot.
The Trump campaign plans to appeal, and the ruling, applicable from January 4, 2024, may impact the general election. Supporters criticize the decision, while Democrats see it as support for their insurrection argument.
The 14th Amendment's Section 3 was invoked, rarely used since the Civil War, potentially posing challenges for Trump's White House bid if other states follow suit. The ruling cited Trump's pre-riot messages as a call to action. Legal battles continue as Trump faces multiple criminal cases.
