Trump Barred: Colorado Court Ruling Sparks Legal Clash
Listen now
Description
The Colorado Supreme Court has disqualified Donald Trump from the state's Republican presidential primary, marking the first use of the rarely invoked insurrection clause in Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. The clause prohibits individuals engaged in insurrection from holding office, a provision legal scholars argue applies to Trump's actions in attempting to overturn the 2020 election. Initiated by Colorado voters, the case focused on Trump's role in the January 6 Capitol attack. The ruling, impacting only the state's Republican primary on March 5, may extend to the general election and influence similar cases in other states. Trump's legal team plans to appeal, asserting the 14th Amendment doesn't apply to the presidency, and courts lack authority to remove him from the ballot. #newwaveglobal #donaldtrump #usa
