How this is even up for debate is mind-blowing. 😡

How come the previous 44 POTUS's and the 46th didn't need criminal immunity to do the job? I have to suspect we need to elect presidents who won't break the law.

Does anyone of the court have any integrity? WTF is wrong with these people? Are they even human?

I can’t believe this is even up for debate

Cool, so that also means the current sitting president has absolute immunity.

Charge Clarence's wife for being the switch board of an insurrection. See if that makes Clarence recuse himself from a case.

A person can draw a direct line from pardoning Nixon to this case. It was a mistake then ans now its blown up our country

lol no immunity period absolutely insane

Do these courts do anything in a timely manner??? How long is it going take the judge on the Trump case to rule on the gag order violations?

If they give presidents total immunity i will have lost the last shred of respect i had for SCOTUS. It was already pretty low but will be non existent if they get stupid.

Ignoring everybody around you telling you that you lost an election is not an "official act".

If Trump is not held to account for his crimes, America is lost.

interrupting the transfer of power is not "official capacity"

Accountability not immunity. Simpels!

Replace the lot. They're grifters.

Total immunity is a very slippery slope.

When did the ghost of Stanley Kubrick start writing the script for US society, based on his film “A Clockwork Orange?”

This country has gone insane. Unbelievable what is happening.

No one should have absolute immunity, including past, present and future presidents and any candidate running for any government office. The entire house top to bottom needs to be fully investigated publicly with complete transparency and cleaned and that includes everyone. Out with old, in with new.

Seriously how can the US say they are the leading democracy in the world and have politics influence the rule of law. All the signs of a banana republic to me and not a democracy.

Even Kings dont have total immunity....😂

SCOTUS is not deciding anything about Trump. It is deciding a hypothesis about a hypothetical situation predicting hypothetical actions, in a hypothetical country with a complicit Court.

Ridiculous that its even being considered. Its a delay tactic and we all know this.

This is why you don't elect a crook.

To even consider this is beyond reason.

This should be a no brainer

It is the most rediculouse argument .

Literally upside world.

I can’t watch or listen. Just the thought that we can’t rely on the Supreme Court to honour and interpret the Constitution fairly, literally makes me nauseous. If it weren’t for this particular master of legal manipulation, these questions would never enter anyone’s mind.

Do the right thing judges

😂😂😂😂 here the people rule yeah please you probably mean the corporation rules

Hush money ,is hush American money.

If immunity is granted the judges involved better pray they stay on the good side of Trump because he flips on a dime..

Justice Jackson the only one that makes a lick of sense

They should change it to SCROTUS

Gorsuch and the rest are not there to write the rules they are suppose to go by the Constitution . We have the Congress to make the rules .

Our highest court is a joke , do your damn jobs

*Chief justice Roberts chided the government attorney over the Appeals Court's ridiculous argument. Roberts said the lower court appeared to be saying that “a former president can be prosecuted because he’s being prosecuted.”*

ELECT PRESIDENTS HONEST ENOUGH TO NOT NEED or ASK FOR IMMUNITY.

It also means that SCOTUS is trembling because they know if they rule against the Orange Cheeto, their "gifts" will no more! Thomas wants more cruises and nice things!

It is a novel concept. Just don’t break the law. Works for the rest of us.

What more can one say about the Trumpell Stiltskin quest for infallibility?

Total Immunity means there’s one men above the law.

Roberts, your legacy is very much on the line in this case, and something it's been reported you are very concerned about, sooooo......

At this point they are just asking us to rebel.

Traitors!

🇺🇸The FTC just banned non-compete agreements. Airlines now have to refund in a timely fashion and in the same way you paid. Thanks Constitutional Democratic Republic... you are still America the Beautiful. 🇺🇸🗽

The republicans on the court are doing what they can for their candidate. Delay delay delay.

if Roe v Wade is any indication.. no SC ruling is a rule for the ages.. only a constitutional amendment may have some staying power

Maybe that would be a good question to ask all of the past presidents that are still living. I mean we do still have a few from both parties still living that could give a first hand testimony.

I must hesitate to use the title "Supreme Court Justice" before the name Alito. Instead, I think, Supreme Knucklehead Alito is more fitting. Is he is not the slightest concerned about displaying ignorance, contradiction or a contempt for reason? Alito stated that a president could conceivably, as an official act or duty, order the military to assassinate a *domestic* rival while in office. But (perhaps in an attempt to blunt the tyrant within) Alito's arguement added the assassin would (or should?) be under no obligation to break the law. What?! So let me get this straight: The president is allowed to order (or personally carry out himself) whatever illegal act he wants. And, according to Alito, the subordinate is the responsible party? *That* is madness! And who would want to work for a criminal president except other criminals? It's the dumbest thing that has ever come out of the mouth of a Court Justice. You just can't square it with reality. So let me get this straight, again: In Alito's mind, any US president can conceivably do whatever he wants, with impunity, and rightfully blame others for letting him to do it? That's crazy! What could it be? Has Alito transformed into an idiot? Is he suffering from dementia? No! It's clearly evident there's a person sitting on the highest court in the land who truly likes the idea that our country should be run by a corrupt and fascist dictator. And let's not kid ourselves: The majority on the Supreme Court, to one degree or another, agree with Alito. And when we, as a nation, must finally, *officially* accept that our President, our leader, our representative, our example is *officially* above the law, that he is not responsible for anything, then how long will it be before America breaks down into lawless chaos? Like the old saying goes, "absolute power corrupts absolutely". The majority on the Supreme Court want Donald Trump to be president again. But if the Conservative Supreme Court majority decides the Constitution allows him to do whatever he wants including amoral, seditious and criminal acts while in office, then they will have unleashed a monster upon the land. If Trump makes it into office again, and especially without firm guardrails to keep us all safe, the countdown to a complete breakdown in America will have officially begun.

Supreme court keep playing going along with trump gaming, it should not sitting , lining up n listening with this crap

That is your opinion. The man wasn't even at the Capital that day.. I never knew that til of late.. and thought, " then what is actually all of this about?"

Is gorsuch going to write it in his own image ?

President Nixon resigned to avoid impeachment and not criminal prosecution.

Trump will absolutely never do what is best for the country only what is best for himself

We should all give up on the documents case. Not because I'm in favor of presidential immunity, I think it's quite clear that presidential immunity isnt a thing. what's happening here is another delay tatic thay may get thia case thrown out.

how can you even say that Trump wants immunity over a charge that was never levied

Doesn't everyone remember that Harris Ford movie "Clear and Present Danger"? That's where the POTUS conducts an illegal operation in another country and then it ends with Jack Ryan confronting him and saying "Mr. President... I don't dance!" The whole premise of that film was that the President could be prosecuted and that was 30 years ago..

What is there to consider? Chump was on tape committing crimes in his own annoying voice. Wtf?

SOMEHOW! Dump voters are ok with this....

Joe B. can do a lot by November if he's got absolute immunity!

America considering Supreme Court's absolute authority claim.

Nixon was scapegoat

The Billionaires arw paying them more!

I'm all for the Supreme Court giving Presidents total immunity in 2024 so President Biden can remove and disband the Supreme Court the very moment they dare rule total immunity.

So this maga court would agree with trumpy, if he installed landmines and self-firing killing systems on the boarder! Reminds me of Russia and the DDR.

If the Supreme Court gives him immunity, it leaves Trump open for other judgments from other realms, for the World; let’s hope they make the right call…..otherwise the Supreme Court! looking to see the damage to be fulfilled…..A+.

More people need to read The Prince by Machiavelli. Clearly the conservatives aren't thinking. They are like sheep being led to the slaughter.

Make me President for a day, grant me Absolute Immunity, and I will take care of the issue pronto then resign.

This should be another 9-0 ruling in Trumps favor. If it actually went against Trump one could expect numerous immediate lawsuits against every Democratic President still alive and every future President.

can Biden have trump bumped off 😮 no charges, trump have Biden and a few more no charges 🤔 😳

Not to worry we will win we have 22 million illegals in USA willing to vote then we can continue to pack SC with people we like and once reelected bring in another 22 million so we can never lose.

Its obvious YES TRUMP SHOULD BE GIVEN IMMUNITY.. If he acted to stop others influencing vote counting in their favor, that would be acting for democracy and the constitution.. TRUMP WAS ACTING TO INFLUENCE THE COUNT IN HIS FAVOR, this is quite the opposite, he was not acting as a president on behalf of the constitution and democracy, quite the opposite.. Immunity be damned.

🤠 🤠🤠 DON'T PANIC !!!!..

Biden will get the immunity to say ‘no more Trump ever. I don’t care what the election results say’. I’ll settle for that.

Even considering absolute immunity for trump is opening a pandoras box. And free reign for Biden.

If they give Trump Immunity, the Court should be disbanded for being useless in protecting the rule of Law!

Trump❤

That's not Trumps argument, that's the law. Name 1 president that went to jail for a crime......go ahead, tell me.

This attorney is dishonest and these commentary is trash.

Save America 🇺🇸 vote Trump

GOD BLESS TRUMP❤

Trump2024🎉

Republican bought and paid for court

And that's what Trump believes that he is above the law.

Face it, you’re coming apart…nobody wants four more years of Joe.

Trump 2024

Just the fact that SCOTUS is entertaining the possibility that a man should be above the law makes them vomit faces. Didn't this come from the same crooks who lied on their job interview? Isn't that a prisonable offense?

Supreme Court better give immunity. Or such a President will arise for other ex Presidents. Want to play games? Check mate is at hand. Supreme Court pass immunity. Period!

Trash media

supreme LEADER court
