Supreme Court Unanimously Rules States Cannot Disqualify Trump from Ballots

The landmark decision raises questions about the enforcement of the 14th Amendment and the future of electoral integrity.

The Supreme Court unanimously ruled states cannot use Section 3 of the 14th Amendment to disqualify former President Donald Trump from state ballots over alleged insurrectionist actions.
The decision has sparked a debate over the Supreme Court's role and its interpretation of the Constitution, with critics arguing it could lead to legal and electoral chaos.
Observers note the ruling leaves open significant questions about the enforcement of the 14th Amendment and the potential for future insurrectionist candidates.
Some legal scholars suggest Congress could still act to enforce Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, though political gridlock makes this unlikely.
The ruling has been both praised and criticized, reflecting deep divisions over Trump's eligibility and the broader implications for American democracy.
