SCOTUS unanimous: Trump is on ballot...

How do you think the court will rule on the "presidential immunity" case? I'm thinking they'll rule against the mango menace.

I predicted this in a different thread... but I don't mind reiterating. I think they will rule that there is a qualified immunity that applies to actions taken as part of the job but not actions taken as part of a campaign. They will then throw it back to the lower courts to have hearings on what is and isn't actions taken as part of the job. This will leave things open for things like Trump attorneys arguing that (guessing here) Trump truly believed that the electors were false and as his oath required he worked to "protect the constitution" and that the actions were taken as President...

Courts will rule, that will then be appealed and due to this kind of back and forth this trial will be pushed well past the election date, this will mean that the only way we'll actually have a trial on this is if Trump loses yet again to the basement dwelling dementia patient (or possibly the Democrats go sane suddenly and push someone with a working brain to run against Trump and he loses to whomever they've crowned as the new nominee).

It's far weaker to say Republicans brought the case...

They did bring the case. It's just like when the trump cult complains that the J6 committee was made up of "deep state libs". The people testifying to the committee and leading the committee were mostly Republicans.

Gaslighting: A trump cult tactic since 2015.

Answer: Because it's the best SCOTUS can do to help trump delay his trial and verdict until after the election. The conservative SCOTUS justices know trump will likely be convicted in DC and are doing their best to put their thumb on the scale. It's why Thomas isn't recusing himself even though his battleaxe nutjob of a wife was involved in the "stop the steal" bullshit!

So you are basically saying the SCOTUS will issue a muddle opinion allowing Trump to appeal the case thru infinity

I think they'll punt and let voters decide. If Trump wins pardons happen, if Trump loses the trial will happen. The goal would be to push it past the election and make lesser rulings on things. They don't want the court to decide the election. I really think that if the Democrats really thought this through that they would not want the courts to be mucking around in elections either. Lawfare is a stupid plan to "win" the next election, it only gives the other side a tool to beat you with when they eventually are elected as the majority.

You just can't help yourself with the insults. You're still not trash-talking trump despite saying you don't like him and won't vote for him.

Check those headlines, Damo. Everyday there's a new article on trump's brain deteriorating even though his mouth keeps running.

Yeah, that's a good prediction. The medieval majority in SCOTUS does owe the criminal mango maniac a debt for appointing them. The least they can do is make sure he doesn't go to trial before the election.

Don't let it get to you. Many fans of trump are too cowardly to admit it. It's hard to admit you're a supporter of a twice impeached, 4-time indicted criminal megalomaniac with not a care for anyone but himself.
 
look at all the moronic leftists who USED to claim that the courts are the final arbiter and what they say is sacrosanct...............now bitching about 'politics' simply because they hate that it didn't go their way.
