In December, the Colorado Supreme Court issued a bombshell ruling
that said Donald Trump was ineligible to be on the state’s ballot
for the Republican presidential primary, saying he was
disqualified under the 14th Amendment of the Constitution because
he had engaged in insurrection on Jan. 6.

The Supreme Court has taken on the case and on Thursday, the
justices heard arguments for and against keeping Trump on the
ballot.

Adam Liptak, who covers the Supreme Court for The Times, analyzes
the arguments, the justices’ responses, and what they can tell us
about the likely ruling in a case that could alter the course of
this year’s race for president.

Guest: Adam Liptak, who covers the Supreme Court for The New York
Times and writes Sidebar, a column on legal developments.
