Donald Trump engaged in insurrection but can still run for president, a Colorado court ruled Friday.
But the clause doesn't disqualify people from the presidency, judge Sarah B. Wallace found.
AdvertisementDonald Trump is still eligible to run for president even though he engaged in an insurrection by inciting the January 6 Capitol riots, a Colorado judge ruled Friday.
Wallace found that Trump "engaged in an insurrection on January 6, 2021, through incitement" – but also ruled that the clause didn't apply to people running for President.
Last week, Minnesota's Supreme Court ruled that Trump was still eligible to appear on primary ballots, turning away a lawsuit from Free Speech for People.
