Can former President Donald Trump run for his old job again after his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol? The answer may depend on the definition of insurrection. Liberal groups filed lawsuits in Colorado, Minnesota and other states to bar Trump from the ballot, citing a rarely used constitutional prohibition against holding office for those who swore an oath to uphold the Constitution but then "engaged in insurrection" against it. The two-sentence clause in the 14th Amendment has been used only a handful of times since the years after the Civil War. Because of that, there s almost no case law defining its terms, including what would constitute an "insurrection." While people have argued about whether to call the Jan. 6 riot an insurrection, debate in court this week has been different: whether those who ratified the amendment in 1868 would call it one.
