December 19, 2023, proved to be a disastrous day for the American Republic as the Colorado Supreme Court arbitrarily ruled that former President Donald Trump is barred from assuming the presidency as outlined by the Constitutionâs âinsurrection clause.â As a result of the decision, the Court instructed Secretary of State Jena Griswold to take Trumpâs name off Coloradoâs Republican presidential primary ballot.

Itâs the first time a court determined that Trump is disqualified from holding public office based on his alleged misconduct during the January 6, 2021, storming of the United States Capitol. Prior to this decision, no court ruled that a presidential candidate is barred from holding office under the clause, Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.
