Galen Druk: 科罗拉多州最高法院裁定特朗普因参与1月6日事件而被取消参选资格,理由是违反了宪法第十四修正案第三条关于叛乱的规定。这一裁决在法律和政治上都引发了广泛关注,并可能上诉至美国最高法院。 Kimberly Wehle: 科罗拉多州最高法院的裁决认定特朗普参与了1月6日的“叛乱”,并认为总统属于宪法第十四修正案第三条中所指的“官员”范畴。该裁决基于事实认定,而非刑事定罪。异议主要集中在程序正义和选民选择权上,但作者认为这些异议站不住脚,因为竞选总统并非宪法赋予的权利,宪法本身已对候选人资格设定了限制。最高法院对科罗拉多州最高法院裁决的最终裁定可能取决于首席大法官罗伯茨以及其他几位大法官的立场。他们可能选择维持原判,也可能以联邦主义为由不予干涉,或者直接裁定总统不属于“官员”范畴。 Geoffrey Skelley: 共和党主要候选人对科罗拉多州最高法院的裁决表示反对,但他们的论据有所不同,有些候选人认为选民应该决定,而不是法官。科罗拉多州共和党也可能通过党内会议来绕过初选结果。民调显示,公众对科罗拉多州最高法院裁决的观点存在严重分歧,共和党选民对特朗普的支持率仍然很高,但对宪法第十四修正案的普遍支持率也较高。科罗拉多州的裁决并非孤例,其他州也存在类似诉讼,但结果各异,这取决于各州的法律和诉讼策略。最高法院可能采取多种方式来裁决此案,包括维持原判、以联邦主义为由不予干涉,或直接裁定总统不属于“官员”范畴。
