Donald Trump ‘galvanised’ politically by Colorado ballot ban

The Colorado Supreme Court banning Donald Trump from the 2024 ballot will help him politically but will be “very challenging” electorally, says former White House principal deputy chief of staff Emma Doyle. “If he’s not able to be on the primary ballot, he’d have to be written in,” Ms Doyle said. “Politically, I think it galvanises him.” The former president’s disqualification is related to the January 6 Capitol Hill riots. The ruling ended 4-3 and the decision has stayed until January 4, with appeals over the decision expected from Trump’s team.
