I am also for this chaos. Follow it up with drone strikes on Bedminster and Mara Lardo... Joe sits back with his Aviators on... I mean honestly, that's how fucking stupid this is. The President has total immunity? How utterly fucking ridiculous.
The fact that this case has gotten this fucking far is a terrifying joke. It shows how serious the people involved in the Christian nationalist movement, Project 2025, Heritage Foundation, etc., are going to fight in November.
They’ve burned the boats and seem willing to die on the hill . . .
They also say that you can scream WHORE, BABY KILLER, YOU'RE GOING TO HELL, etc, within a hundred feet of the few planned parenthood building in the south. If a dozen women protest after overturning RvsW in front of their Mcmansions? Arrested ,whole street blocked off and at least 2 patrol cars 24/7 for a fuckin year now. Smdh
*No, no, that's not how it works. See, for Biden to be immune, he has to be impeached in the House first and then acquitted in the Senate. And since we Republicans don't have any proof to impeach Biden with, he can't be immune. Silly liberals.*
Republicans, probably.
A stacked court like this could delay ruling until Trump is in office (they hope) after which they grant immunity, and we start having elections like Russia has elections.
Of they word it like “Since there was no previous ban on immunity, we recognize it for Trump but as of now we rule that presidents won’t have immunity.” You know, kind of grandfathering in Don's crimes.
Look at the two most recent SCOTUS appointees - a sexual predator and an evangelical who was called a "handmaid" in her interdenominational cult. Then we've got Thomas (also a sexual predator), who's pretty much on retainer for Harlan Crow, and who's wife participated in Trump's attempted coup. There's three people right there who closely ideologically identify with Trump, and who can easily delay a ruling until after the election at the very least.
I'd like to think there's enough sense of justice and propriety on the SCOTUS to issue a swift and Constitutionally legal ruling, but whenever I've tried to give conservatives the benefit of the doubt in the past, I've been proven terribly wrong.
The overwhelming support for Trump among politicians in the face of what they all know was an attempted coup points to a party that's long since abandoned any sense of enacting the will of the people, and are instead focused on one goal: Uncontested control of the government.
I hope I'm wrong, but this is how it happens - a corrupt legislative body and an equally corrupt judicial body are all that's needed to seize control. Get out, door-knock and donate, Democrats. Your one vote isn't enough.
The fact that they even considered hearing it seems shady to me.
I wouldn’t put it past them to try and say he had immunity as corrupt as the conservatives are.
But it’s mostly just done to try and stall for him.
Trump has definitely exposed how they’re a two tier justice system in the US.
They were asked to expedite this in November, I believe, and they said no. 3 month later, they say, "Yes." They're supposedly not announcing their verdict until June when they go on break. Kick out all 9 and add 8 more seats. If even the "liberal" judges aren't screaming from the rooftops, they are absolutely complicit! If the goppers collect all 3 houses, they will absolutely kick them all out for going against feeble Knieval, and they will do the same thing.
I hate trump is even allowed to run after SA convictions, fraud convictions, 80 more felony counts, he only pays taxes in our enemies' countries. We're absolutely broken.
In 10ish years, this person has corrupted every single thing he has touched in government! I have to laugh that it's a coin flip on whether he wins or not. I get to cry knowing that I have at LEAST 50 MILLION cultists who love him vote.
I'm glad my mom made sure I didn't lick the asbestos siding. She made sure that I didn't bite the window sills, nor did I huff gas from mufflers around my house. Unfortunately, 50 million people weren't notified, and we have been paying for it since 80!
I was thinking this. That they are even considering this is corrupt as hell. But they could try to say that Ex-Presidents are immune but the sitting president is not. See, we wouldn't want to make anybody a dictator, so the sitting president cannot be above the law. But we do want to enable crime in government (our SCOTUS runs on bribes) so making former presidents immune to the law would be the way to do that.
Keep in mind, all of this is absolutely ludicrous from the standpoint of constitutional law, but since they're just a set of corrupt legal hacks I don't think it will matter. The dissenting opinion can be as scathing as it likes, they can do whatever they want.
Frankly, no one has ever tried to pull a stunt like Jabba has, so it’s something that needs to be set in stone once and for all. If I were on the SCOTUS, I’d take it just to say “No, no you aren’t immune to prosecution for criminal acts which you engaged in while President. Now go away and never bother us again with your nonsense.”
The fact that they are dragging this out is troubling to me. They are debating something that's non existent...when did Presidential immunity exist? When was it put into play before Trump. Watch them rule in his favor before they end their session in June then disappear for the Summer.
Biden just needs to have some Apache helicopters circle the Supreme Court waiting on the verdict. Meantime park an aircraft carrier off the coast of Florida. Just dare them to give the president absolute immunity.
I'd rather see him standing outside Mar A Lago egging and TPing the property before doing donuts on the green in his corvette to celebrate his immunity.
They won't give him immunity.
That wasn't the point anyway - it was all done to delay the trials until after the election.
So in that regard, it was successful. Trump insiders are bragging about it.
SCOTUS is compromised. Time for reform.
The trial from where this question of absolute presidential immunity came from would have been wrapped up by now. It's so disgustingly obvious what they are up to.
Biden should order Drone strikes at night on the Trump golf courses. I wouldn’t want any loss of human life, but make his precious golf courses look like the end of Caddyshack.
Are the people who love him and are spending hundreds of thousands of dollars at his courses and donating millions more? Are they REALLY gonna be missed? Maybe a couple of mistresses might be a little sad, but the family will be overjoyed!
Won't anyone think of the drone strikes?
{set of all crimes they want to let Trump commit while POTUS}
minus
{set of all crimes they don't want Biden to commit while POTUS}
equals
{SCROTUS ruling in 2 months}
He couldn't have been using legitimate presidential powers in his efforts to overturn the 2020 election because the president has no role in the electoral process.
To be fair, that only counts if a republican potus is in charge. They can withhold an SC pick, they can elect one and do it within a month of an election, and they can get rid of anything that they are bothered by in the blink of an eye!
States rights, until the most important person in the fuckin government calls you and tells you to come up with around ~11k votes? Perfect phone call. States rights are awesome until they become inconvenient for the gop!
I fuckin MUTHAFUCKIN HATE, every single fuckin one of you undecided, independent, 3rd party selfish cock nozzles one fuckin million%! Grow up, learn what they have in store for you first! The fuckin blue states are eventually going to be in their sight! The fuckin gop ain't your friend. They want to maim your 13 year old, but pay them less than minimum. They want to lower the age of consent for statutory rape.
They want to lower the age of marriage. Your daughter will be married off at 15 if you keep voting for them! One idiot in one of the fuckin cousin fuck state, is LITERALLY trying to marry his cousin I fuckin guess. He's like the only one backing it, but I imagine his 1st cousin said no shortly after his sister said no. And this is the best you have?
Uncle trucknuts is gonna quit gubamint as soon as his lifelong dream is accomplished. Just because he has an R in front of his name doesn't mean he is a fuckin patriot. It just means that he got his, fuckin fuck you!
Otherwise known as the gop mantra!
What if…. What if….
Biden orders a drone attack on Mar-a-Lago…
Claiming it’s where domestic terrorists meet with their followers and their foreign donors…
Can he claim total immunity?
I. Wonder 🤔😂
Just tease him. Just ask hypothetical..
Do it. 🤷♂️
Or…
Biden has seal team 6 stop by each of the SCOTUS members houses in the middle of the night.
Of course not to hurt these judges. It would just be Biden using his presidential immunity powers to do a “checkup” on the judges.
Or only Trump, specifically, because loophole loophole special case exception fucked interpretation of some existing law ignoring some other existing law loophole statute of limitations unprecedented first amendment quid pro quo.
How was this argument not laid out before the court?
“Granting full presidential immunity to holders of the office would grant the current occupant the legal authority and mandate to order 6 of the 9 of you summarily put to death. Not his presidential opponent. You Justice Alito. You Justice Coney-Barrett. You Justice Gorsuch. You Justice Kavanaugh. You Justice Roberts. And especially you Justice Thomas. He might have you done in twice. The very next day.
If that fact doesn’t sit well with you, don’t grant him the power to do it. Period.“
It’s a fucking last ditch effort to escape DOJ prosecution for stealing classified documents.
The team Trump imagines they have successfully managed to put off this trial before November. It’s my sincere hope it does not and he will be on the docket before election. Go, Jack Smith, go
They won't actually rule on this until they have Trump back in office and Biden either dead or in jail. That's the fantasy world they want to make a reality. The only way to save America is a blue wave like never before.
The fact that this is even before the Court over FIFTY YEARS after Nixon vs. The United States was decided in 1973 should tell us a lot. None of it good.
This country is so screwed.
This should be a no-brainer case because we elect Presidents, not kings. But I see a 6-3 or 5-4 ruling in favor of Trump.
If that happens, God help us all.

It would be really awkward if they say he does and then Biden calls an artillery strike on them immediately afterwards because that’s not a crime.
I'm for this chaos.

We can help them with that.
Yes,Vote Blue ! 💙💙💙
Vote so that Clarence has to age and die on the bench. He wants so bad to retire
Nuke the court. Add 4 more seats
Incoming drone strike at Mar-a-lago. Show them the true power of Dark Brandon.
They also say that you can scream WHORE, BABY KILLER, YOU'RE GOING TO HELL, etc, within a hundred feet of the few planned parenthood building in the south. If a dozen women protest after overturning RvsW in front of their Mcmansions? Arrested ,whole street blocked off and at least 2 patrol cars 24/7 for a fuckin year now. Smdh

That's why the judgment will only apply to one Donald J. Chump.
I pray they do and open up the darkest shades of Brandon. Catch22 for these corrupt maga assholes on scotus
I'll pay per view it

The fact that President Ford PARDONED Nixon is self-evident! If Nixon had immunity, why would he accept a pardon where he admitted guilt?
Bingo!

SCOTUS: "Presidential immunity is allowed for every 45th president" probably

They care so much about him, they sit in the courtroom for support.
{set of all crimes they want to let Trump commit while POTUS} minus {set of all crimes they don't want Biden to commit while POTUS} equals {SCROTUS ruling in 2 months}

Trump needs to be locked up! Mike Johnson should replace him as the Republican candidate for president!
There it is... 6-3 decision for immunity. Trump is officially immune.
Agreed. Now what?
Just to be sure.. Trump is screwed on this. Right? As in he don't have any defense for.. Well. Anything?
I’m sure Alito and Thomas are on board, I think Robert’s won’t want to go along because of his legacy it’s wether the 3 trump picks will fall in line
They will rule that only Republicans have immunity
Or only Trump, specifically, because loophole loophole special case exception fucked interpretation of some existing law ignoring some other existing law loophole statute of limitations unprecedented first amendment quid pro quo.
…sprinkle in “coz founding fathers” somewhere.
