'Engaged in Insurrection': Trump, SCOTUS, and the 14th Amendment, Explained


Several states, as well as the Trump campaign, have petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to rule on the matter. Here, Snopes covers the central elements of the debate and its potential future before the Supreme Court. Colorado and Maine both cite what is known as the Disqualification Clause (Section Three of the 14th Amendment) as their basis for removing Trump from their state's primary ballots. In response to the Colorado ruling, the Colorado Republican Party asked the U.S. Supreme Court to rule on three questions regarding the disqualification clause. That case has yet to be decided, but is expected to be reviewed by that state's Supreme Court.
