The unanimous (sort of) decision by the Supreme Court to overturn Colorado’s removal of Trump from the state ballot puts into question the (already dubious) integrity of the state’s rights doctrine and constitutional originalism. If states don’t have enforcement powers to prevent insurrectionists from running for public office, but the federal government can’t secure the voting rights of citizens either (see the gutting of the Voting Rights Act), and if it’s up to the highly partisan Congress to decide, then the 14th amendment is seriously compromised.
