The conservative-dominated court, to which Trump appointed three stringent rightwingers, will pitch into the partisan fight
The Colorado ruling disqualifying Donald Trump from the ballot because he incited an insurrection on January 6 sets up another high-stakes, highly controversial political intervention by the US supreme court – a conservative-dominated panel to which Trump appointed three stringent rightwingers.
