Column: Why the Supreme Court will probably put Trump back on the ballot in Colorado and nationwide

LA Times  

Former President Trump’s appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court of the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision disqualifying him from the ballot. More than any U.S. Supreme Court case in decades, former President Trump’s appeal of the Colorado decision disqualifying him from the state’s primary ballot combines huge political moment with a scarcity of guiding law. To avoid such a patchwork, a majority of the justices is likely to reverse the Colorado Supreme Court’s ruling that Trump engaged in insurrection and is therefore ineligible for office under the 14th Amendment. Trump’s petition provides the justices with several means of doing so, from finding fault with the Colorado court’s definition of “insurrection” to determining that the president is not an “officer” of the United States.
