Big drama in the United States 11 months before the elections: the Supreme Court last night (Tuesday) disqualified the former President of the United States Donald Trump from running for the presidency. The court's reasoning for disqualification was sedition, claiming that he incited the riots in the Capitol after the previous elections, on January 6, 2021.

The court wrote in reasoning: "We do not reach these conclusions lightly," the majority opinion states. "We are aware of the size and weight of the questions facing us now. We are also aware of our solemn duty to implement the law, without fear or favor, and without being influenced by the public's reaction to the decisions that the law requires us to reach."

As a reminder, after the 2020 election in which Trump lost to Joe Biden, Trump claimed that the election results were rigged and demanded that they be held again. On January 6, 2021, during Biden's inauguration, a demonstration of protest and support for the outgoing president turned into a violent riot during which some of the protesters broke into the Capitol building. The protesters vandalized the building, injured dozens of police officers and caused the death of one of them from a stroke. Four protesters were killed as a result of the riots.

Following the events, the House of Representatives put Trump on trial for impeachment before the Senate, but the necessary majority for conviction of two-thirds of the members of the Senate was not reached.
