The Colorado court argued that Trump's actions during the Capitol attack on January 6, 2021, disqualify him under the 14th Amendment.
Trump claims that the Colorado Supreme Court's decision is unconstitutional and unjustly excludes him from the primary. He urges the Supreme Court to overturn the ruling and allow him to participate in the primary.
