court. yesterday the state supreme court ruled that the former president should be barred from holding office under the constitution s so-called insurrection clause. however state justices have agreed to pause their decision until january 4, meaning donald trump has time to appeal, which he said that he will do at the u.s. supreme court, quote, swiftly. so how much of a shot does he have of reversing it? the use of this little known civil war era provision is unprecedented, and yesterday s decision was also not unanimous. so we ll dig into the dissenting opinions and how they could play out. but also prominent supporters and opponents of the former president are expressing their opinion. most significant, president biden who just said there is, quote, no question trump assumed an insurrection. the ruling does not apply outside of colorado. lawsuits challenging donald trump s candidacy have been filed in more than 25 states. this ahead of 2024. and have so far failed in ....
