DENVER (AP) — A divided Colorado Supreme Court on Tuesday declared former President Donald Trump ineligible for the White House under the U.S. Constitution’s insurrection clause and removed him from the state’s presidential primary ballot, setting up a likely showdown in the nation’s highest court to decide whether the front-runner for the GOP nomination can remain in the race.

Colorado Supreme Court declares Donald Trump is ineligible for the White House

The Colorado Supreme Court is removing former President Donald Trump from the 2024 primary ballot under the Constitution's insurrection clause.

The decision from a court whose justices were all appointed by Democratic governors marks the first time in history that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment has been used to disqualify a presidential candidate.

“A majority of the court holds that Trump is disqualified from holding the office of president under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment,” the court wrote in its 4-3 decision.

Colorado’s highest court overturned a ruling from a district court judge who found that Trump incited an insurrection for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, but said he could not be barred from the ballot because it was unclear that the provision was intended to cover the presidency.

Nothing in the 14th references President other than an elector of President.

Section 3

No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State ...​

The President is not an officer, as he commissions all officers.

Another Reason Why Trump Is NOT Subject to the 14th Amendment Section 3

There are myriad reasons, neither President nor Vice President is mentioned, while other offices are. And the Amendment applies solely to those who fought for or were part of the government of the CSA. And this is another reason. The President is not an officer, he is the head of state...

Yeap. That's going nowhere.

The US Supreme Court will slap this down.

I'd be surprised if that ruling lasts overnight.

It will not.

I have a severe case of TDS, but this is straight up a cowardly move. And shows just how weak and worthless Democrats are.

 

[toobfreak]

Yup. The Court just disenfranchised almost half its citizens, based on an unproven charge against the Republican they want for president.

All of the red states should enact legislation tomorrow excluding anyone over the age of 80 from running for office and see how the Left likes it!

In other words, your whole world revolves around it.

Nope, just your TDS.

I got plenty of other interests.

It is debatable to argue states rights.

tRumplings only approve of states rights when they think it benefits them.

Oh my all the goldfish are hopping with joy at their Party interfering with the election process!

True. The fuck up everything they touch.
