Democrats Lost a BIG One as Supreme Court Rules Trump Has Immunity for ‘Official Acts’ in Office

On Tuesday, the U.S. Supreme Court dealt the law-hating Democrat Party a body blow in their efforts to use illicit means to destroy Donald Trump and ruled that presidents absolutely do have limited immunity for the things they do while in office.

In its decision, the 6-3 majority wrote:

Under our constitutional structure of separated powers, the nature of Presidential power entitles a former President to absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority. And he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts. There is no immunity for unofficial acts.

But that is not all. The court also destroyed the Democrat plan to jail Trump with fake show trials ahead of the election. They ruled that not only does a president have a right to appeal each charge separately, he also has a right to appeal any denial to the Supreme Court before a trial even begins.

This means the lawfare against Trump has been neutered ahead of the election that that Biden won’t get his politically motivated “convictions” ahead of the election in November.

Per Chief Justice John Roberts:

This case poses a question of lasting significance: When may a former President be prosecuted for official acts taken during his Presidency? Our Nation has never before needed an answer. But in addressing that question today, unlike the political branches and the public at large, we cannot afford to fixate exclusively, or even primarily, on present exigencies. In a case like this one, focusing on “transient results” may have profound consequences for the separation of powers and for the future of our Republic.

The President enjoys no immunity for his unofficial acts, and not everything the President does is official. The President is not above the law. But Congress may not criminalize the President’s conduct in carrying out the responsibilities of the Executive Branch under the Constitution. And the system of separated powers designed by the Framers has always demanded an energetic, independent Executive. The

President therefore may not be prosecuted for exercising his core constitutional powers, and he is entitled, at a minimum, to a presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts. That immunity applies equally to all occupants of the Oval Office, regardless of politics, policy, or party.

Justice Thomas even piled onto the assertion that Special Counsel Jack Smith has been illegitimately appointed to the case and that the case against Trump is fraught with political motivations and not lawful.

This ruling should result in most or all of the charges against Trump dropped that have been brought by Smith over Trump’s action on Jan 6, 2021.

The ruling totally undermines Joe Biden’s attempt to abuse, warp, and rewrite the law to destroy Trump.

And right on cue, the unhinged, bloodthirsty left is already urging Joe Biden to use this “immunity” concept to cover his assassination of Donald Trump.

Take a look:

There is nothing a Democrat won’t do to win. No matter how immoral it is. The ends justify the means.

Of course, the court was right. We can’t have a president hamstrung before he even takes the oath of office by placing him under threat of being arrested by the opposition, tried, and jailed for legal actions taken as president.

That is what third world nations do. Not what the U.S.A. does.
