I n Colorado, a state already immersed in heated political debate, an unprecedented event occurred: Donald Trump has been barred from running again due to an alleged insurrection incident linked to events on Capitol Hill.
“Donald Trump engaged in insurrection and was disqualified under the Constitution from Colorado’s vote“Griswold said in a press release, the Daily Mail reported.
However, in a surprising twist, Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold said Trump could still appear on ballots in the upcoming election, unless the Federal Supreme Court decides otherwise. This announcement follows the controversial decision of the Colorado Supreme Court, which initially excluded Trump from the election.
The situation took an unexpected turn when Griswold leveled insurrection charges against Trump, calling his eligibility into question.. Now, attention shifts to the U.S. Supreme Court, where Griswold is calling for swift intervention ahead of the upcoming presidential primaries.
The crux of this matter is the interpretation of the 14th Amendment. The Colorado Supreme Court, in a 4-3 decision, ruled that Trump did not meet the requirements to participate in the primaries. This sparked a lively political debate, with the Colorado Republican Party requesting urgent intervention from the federal Supreme Court.
GOP lawyers argue that excluding Trump from the election could violate the First Amendment, which guarantees political parties the right to freely choose their candidates. Furthermore, they accuse the Colorado Supreme Court of attempting to interfere with citizens’ right to elect their representatives.
“By excluding President Trump from the ballot, the Colorado Supreme Court demonstrated unprecedented contempt for the First Amendment right of political parties to elect candidates of their choice and to usurp the right of the people to choose their own elected officials”state GOP lawyers said in their petition.
With Colorado ballots waiting to be printed by January 5, the atmosphere is tense and filled with expectation. The US Supreme Court’s decision will not only affect Trump’s political career, but could also mark a turning point for the American electoral system, with potential repercussions on the rules of democracy in the country.
The decision of the Supreme Court, where the majority of judges were appointed by Trump, will be crucial. Despite numerous controversies and scandals, including Russiagate and the insurrection charge, the most serious in terms of impact on his re-election, the Court will have to impartially evaluate Trump’s political fate.
Trump: “The Michigan Supreme Court has firmly and rightly denied the attempt by desperate Democrats to exclude the leading candidate in the 2024 presidential election, me, from the ballot in the Great State of Michigan. This pathetic move to rig elections has failed across the country, including states that have historically skewed heavily Democratic. Colorado is the only state to have fallen victim to the plan. That 4-3 decision by the Colorado Supreme Court, which they themselves upheld, thus keeping me on the ballot as we go to the United States Supreme Court, is being ridiculed and derided around the world. We must prevent the 2024 elections from being rigged and stolen like the 2020 elections were stolen: just look at the complete mess we have as a result with the dishonest Joe Biden violently destroying everything that is in his eyes, from our once great economy to our once just economy. Justice system. We must save our country from decline and the Radical Left. Make America great again!” (
