When the Colorado Supreme Court issued its order to disqualify former President Donald Trump from its primary ballot in 2024, the GOP frontrunner was giving a speech at a rally in Waterloo, Iowa.

Notably missing from the remarks was any response to the unusual Colorado ruling, passed by a narrow vote with three out of seven judges dissenting. It made Colorado the first in the nation to bar President Trump from the ballot.
