Judge Rules Trump Incited Insurrection

Colorado Judge Sarah Wallace has ruled that former President Donald Trump "engaged in insurrection" during the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Despite this finding, however, the Judge rejected an attempt to disqualify Trump from Colorado's 2024 primary ballot under the Constitution's 14th Amendment.

The judge ruled that, although Trump IS an insurrectionist, he was President at the time, and thus exempt from the law.

The ruling was in response to a lawsuit brought by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, who want to bar Trump from running in Colorado.

Judge Wallace's decision lets Trump stay in the upcoming Colorado election cycle, even though, as she writes in her ruling, he WAS involved in an insurrection.

Is Trump an insurrectionist? Should he be allowed to run for President if he is?
