Like his comments were shocking in his cynicism |
He also said that grand juries would indict a ham sandwich. Ridiculous! Why even have a legal system if the head of it thinks it’s crap?! |
If he thinks that is true, then why do only presidents get this immunity? Screw everyone else! |
Conservative men on the court were desperate to provide a carve-out for Trump and his "official duties" (broadly construed)
ACB was not pleased with Trump's lawyer's arguments. I think it goes 5-4, with CJ/ACB + the 3 Dem judges in the majority to lift the stay and let lower court proceedings move forward. |
I think it goes down to determine which actions were official actions and then comes back up again. That precludes a trial before the election without forcing the conservatives to actually rule on immunity. |
Just proving how hard they suck. |
Is CJ Roberts? The quotes I've heard from him suggest he was on the side of at least some immunity. |

Teflon Don will then win the election, erase all court proceedings against him, I guess…the whole country just lives with a president who committed 91 felonies and got away it. The country will get to learn that “life isn’t fair and sometimes bad people win.” Trump will exit Nato and then align America with other authoritarian countries. The liberal world then moves away from America because it will have shown itself to be be an untrustworthy alie and because none of them like Trump and his idiotic “America first” bullsht. |
Trump tried to steal the election with fake voters and basically wouldn’t leave. It’s insane. |

Biden needs to go out an announce that he will make full use of any immunity that SCOTUS decides he has. |
