Good news for Donald Trump: The Michigan Supreme Court has ruled that the former president can run in the state's Republican primary. In the background is a reversed decision by the Colorado Supreme Court, which ruled a few days ago that Trump is barred from running because of sedition.
The question of Trump's constitutional eligibility to run for president has recently become a hot topic, after lawsuits against his participation in the race were filed in more than 30 states. Many of them have already been rejected, the one in Colorado was actually accepted, and it is now expected that the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington itself will give its opinion on the issue.
Prosecutors argue that Trump should not be allowed to run under Article 3 of the 14th Amendment. It disqualifies anyone who was "involved in an insurrection or insurrection" against the Constitution from federal office after vowing to support and uphold it.
