So if the Supreme Court decides presidential immunity exists...

[MiHale]

President Biden should then immediately dissolve the Supreme Court and install his own picks same day no need to go to Congress because he already declared the Republican Party an illegal terrorist organization and banished them from any office…nationwide.
Any participant that was an elected official and even tangentially involved in the Insurrection of January Sixth immediately sent to a maximum security prison.

Or are the Supremes saying that the Democrats are to nice do what republicans would do, so nothing to be afraid of?



Of course this would never happen. Just venting.

1. The ruling will apply only to Trump

"Our consideration is limited to the present circumstances...."

just like in Bush v. Gore

2. To be clear - absolute immunity DOES exist

That isn’t what they’re ruling on - and it wouldn’t give Biden license to do that even if they rule for TFG (which few expect)

3. No, because SCOTUS could Bush v Gore their decision

They could grant Trump immunity based only on the specific acts of his case and declare their decision will not be precedent for immunity in the future. Yes, I am that cynical to think they will do that.

4. Immunity is only for the GOP traitors.

Not for law abiding Dems.

[Johonny]

5. They will only grant immunity if Trump wins

If he loses they will make sure no such immunity exists. If the coup works in November they will usher in the dictatorship. The Supreme Court is as evil as all GOP organizations and no ruling of late goes against this idea.

6. It would never happen because it can't

There's a distinction between doing something that's criminal and doing something you have no ability to do. The President can't dissolve the Supreme Court any more than it can dissolve Congress. Who would actually enforce this ruling:?
