Supreme Court to Decide Trump's Eligibility for 2024 Presidential Ballot

The U.S. Supreme Court is set to rule on whether Donald Trump can be barred from the 2024 presidential ballot under the 14th Amendment's insurrection provision.

  • The Supreme Court will hear arguments on whether Donald Trump is disqualified from the 2024 presidential ballot due to his role in the Jan. 6 Capitol attack.
  • The case centers on the 14th Amendment's insurrection provision, which bars individuals who engaged in insurrection against the U.S. from holding office.
  • Colorado's Supreme Court ruled Trump ineligible, a decision that could have nationwide implications if upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court.
  • Trump faces multiple criminal charges, including efforts to overturn the 2020 election, but has not been charged with insurrection.
  • Legal experts and historians are divided on the definition of insurrection and its application to Trump's actions on Jan. 6, 2021.
