WATCH: Biden Responds To Colorado Supreme Court's Decision To Kick Trump Off Ballot

On Wednesday, President Joe Biden responded to the news that the Colorado Supreme Court, in a 4-3 decision, ruled that leading Republican presidential candidate and 45th President Donald Trump could not appear on the primary ballot in the state given that they determined that he attempted an "insurrection" against the United States via the comments he made prior to the January 6 Capitol Riot.

"Is Trump an insurrectionist, sir?" a reporter asked President Biden, to which he replied, "Well, I think it certainly is self-evident. We saw it all. Now, whether the 14th Amendment applies, we'll let the Court make that decision. But he certainly supported an insurrection. There's no question about it. None. Zero. And he seems to be doubling down on it."

The Colorado Supreme Court made its decision by invoking Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which states the following:

"No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may, by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability."

While the Democrat-appointed, Ivy League-educated judges ruled that Trump falls under this section, a number of more conservative legal scholars disagree with that assessment and argue that such a clause does not apply to the president of the United States, not to mention that many regard Trump's actions as not fulfilling the requirements of an insurrection. Despite these arguments, the Colorado Supreme Court proceeded by ordering Trump's removal from the ballot by January 4. However, Trump's legal team is expected to appeal the decision to the Supreme Court.

"President Trump did not merely incite the insurrection," the state supreme court's opinion reads. "Even when the siege on the Capitol was fully underway, he continued to support it by repeatedly demanding that Vice President (Mike) Pence refuse to perform his constitutional duty and by calling Senators to persuade them to stop the counting of electoral votes. These actions constituted overt, voluntary, and direct participation in the insurrection."

"We conclude that the foregoing evidence, the great bulk of which was undisputed at trial, established that President Trump engaged in insurrection," the opinion continued. "President Trump's direct and express efforts, over several months, exhorting his supporters to march to the Capitol to prevent what he falsely characterized as an alleged fraud on the people of this country were indisputably overt and voluntary."

In response to the decision, Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said in a statement, "Unsurprisingly, the all-Democrat appointed Colorado Supreme Court has ruled against President Trump... Democrat Party leaders are in a state of paranoia over the growing, dominant lead President Trump has amassed in the polls. They have lost faith in the failed Biden presidency and are now doing everything they can to stop the American voters from throwing them out of office next November," Chueng said. "The Colorado Supreme Court issued a completely flawed decision tonight, and we will swiftly file an appeal to the United States Supreme Court and a concurrent request for a stay of this deeply undemocratic decision. We have full confidence that the U.S. Supreme Court will quickly rule in our favor and finally put an end to these un-American lawsuits."
