The legal drama around Donald Trump’s 2024 run just took a wild turn: Colorado’s Supreme Court kicked him off the state’s ballot, citing a rarely used clause against insurrection. This unprecedented move is sure to shake up the political landscape, but will it boost Trump’s base or be the nail in his coffin?
Trump’s supporters are fired up. They see this as another example of a system rigged against their guy, and it’s likely to fuel his fundraising and energize his base. Expect Trump rallies to be even more amped up, with chants of “witch hunt” reaching new decibels.
But don’t write off the Democrats just yet. This ruling could help them win over crucial independent voters who believe Trump incited the January 6th Capitol attack. Polls show many independents find that accusation “believable,” and Democrats will be hammering that point home.
What about the Republican nomination? Trump remains the frontrunner, and losing Colorado doesn’t change that. But this could help some challengers like Nikki Haley pick up steam. Some Republicans see this as the push they need to finally ditch Trump and embrace a new face.

And then there’s Biden. He’s been going after Trump harder lately, and this ruling gives him more ammo. But he needs to be careful not to get sucked into the Trump drama vortex. Voters care about the economy, bipartisanship, and steady leadership, so Biden needs to stay focused on those strengths.
The bottom line? This is a game-changer, but it’s too early to call the winner. Trump’s base is energized, Democrats have a new attack line, and Republican challengers see an opening. Buckle up, folks, it’s gonna be a bumpy ride to 2024.

Bonus: Fun facts and side notes:
- Trump is appealing the ruling to the Supreme Court, where his three appointees give him a better chance than usual.
- The first Republican nominating contest is in Iowa next month, so this decision throws the spotlight back on Trump just as Haley was gaining momentum.
- Even if multiple states bar Trump from the ballot, it wouldn’t guarantee a Biden victory. Some polls show DeSantis and Haley running competitively against the incumbent president.
This is just a glimpse into the complex web of reactions and potential outcomes triggered by this ruling. Stay tuned for the next episode of this political thriller!
