      That sounds too much like mob rule. I'd rather require that anyone who is inaugurated wins both the electoral & popular vote. If nobody wins then we repeat the process until someone does so each POTUS represents a real majority. Also, the SCOTUS is never to proclaim one candidate wins over another: that is literally legislating from the bench, by determining who leads the legislature.

      The MAGA--orientated SCOTUS know that sending this back to the lower courts so they have to debate which acts were private and which were official will save Trump if not forever (if he wins election) then at least for a few years. That will inspire their rich sponsors to give them more hand-outs, free holidays etc. SCOTUS know that the constitution insists that every official is liable for prosecution for illegal acts that are carried whilst holding office but the Trump followers wanted to pretend they had to seriously think about this and allow debate to occur around it before stating the bleeding obvious.

No one is coming to save US. That is what a democracy is. We have the power with our vote(s). Whether we appreciate that power or not. The American people continue to vote, or not vote, for the evangelical republican cult, that has been subverting our democracy since Reagan was overwhelmingly elected by a majority of American in 1980. Even with his clearly telling us that the evangelical republican plan was Trickle Down Economics, where the born rich wealthiest few get tax cuts and then their increased wealth will trickle down to the working class masses (which is just plane stupid on its face) and that the evangelical republican party would end Roe vs Wade. Reagan and republicans promised that in 1980. And the American people cheered it on and voted for it. And have been voting for it ever since, every single time they elect the evangelical republican party into power.

How can the SCOTUS GOP judges NOT consider the facts of the Trump crimes at the hearing, but make a ruling on the hypothetical basis when the facts and laws are right in their faces? The SCOTUS decision should be a unanimous NO, a president does NOT have absolute immunity. The GOP appointed SCOTUS justices are an 'imminent' threat to the constitution and democracy.

    I agree with Justice ⚖️ Jackson 💯 percent I respect her for pointing out the truth no one should be above the law specially Presidents.

    Why does the DOJ have a prohibition on indicting a sitting president if they are immune?

    Supreme Court has failed completely. We need justices to have term limits and solid rules for Justice behavior with strict oversight. Chief Justice has been a big part of this failure.

    Sen. Whitehouse, no matter what, America MUST get politics out of the Supreme Court. It is a shambles.
