Supreme Court rules ex-presidents have broad immunity, dimming chance of a pre-election Trump trial
SUMMARY: The Supreme Court ruled that former presidents have some immunity from prosecution, affecting Donald Trump's trial for allegedly trying to overturn the 2020 election. The 6-3 decision by the conservative majority, including three Trump appointees, delays Trump's trial likely until after the 2024 election. Chief Justice Roberts stated that former presidents have immunity for official acts, not unofficial ones. The ruling underscores the Court's significant influence on the upcoming election, with liberal justices dissenting. This decision and its implications point to potential delays and political maneuvers if Trump were to win the presidency. Further analysis by Judge Tanya Chutkan is required.
