Trump Gets Good News Following Supreme Court ‘Immunity’ Hearing

One political analyst believes that Donald Trump’s legal team has reason to be happy after arguing the issue of presidential immunity before the U.S. Supreme Court.

Writing in The Atlantic, senior editor Ronald Brownstein’s piece “Trump Is Getting What He Wants” concluded that the former president will likely not be tried in federal courts before the November election.

Brownstein discussed his conclusions in an interview with CNN.

“Political analyst Ron Brownstein’s new piece out in The Atlantic is about the Supreme Court‘s impact on Trump‘s future and the future of the presidency…let‘s start there. Ron, because after yesterday‘s Supreme Court arguments, you concluded that Trump is getting what he wants and more how and why,” asked host Kate Bolduan

“Well, look in practical, your attorney in the near term, what he‘s getting is we‘re kind of getting numb to this, but that at that hearing yesterday, five of the Republican-appointed justices, really all of them except Amy Coney Barrett, gave very clear signals that they are going to protect the Republican presidential nominee from a trial before the November election on the charges that this poll and other polls show are the most serious is to the American people,” Brownstein claimed.

“I mean, in practical terms, at almost any of the rulings that seemed possible out of that hearing are going to make it extremely difficult, if not impossible, for there to be a trial on whether Trump tried to subvert the last election before he faces voters in the next election,” he continued.

“The implications for what happens if he is re-elected may be even more profound. I mean, you saw that hearing how virtually unlimited is their view of presidential power,” he went on. “His lawyers argued that unless he was first impeached and convicted, which is impossible in this current partisan environment, he could sell nuclear secrets, assassinate a political rival, or even stage a coup without facing criminal trials and the legal experts that I spoke with pointed out that when you‘re starting with someone who has that level of view of what he can do as president, trying to draw a very fine line between what can and can‘t be prosecuted after he leaves office is kind of a doomed effort.

He concluded: “He is going to take almost any kind of immunity as a license to truly push at the boundaries and read just a portion of because of that, you wrote this: those who went into the hearing wishing to preserve a pre-election trial against Trump emerge from the proceedings reduced to hoping that the court doesn‘t eviscerate the possibility of criminal consequences for any president who breaks the law.”

Trump is warning Americans that they won’t “have a country anymore” if they don’t vote for him in the November presidential election.

During an interview on “One Nation,” Trump, the presumptive GOP presidential nominee, weighed in on a variety of topics — including his anticipated rematch with Democratic opponent President Joe Biden on November 5.

“The most important day in the history of our country is going to be November 5,” Trump said. “Our country is going bad. And it’s going to be changed on November 5, and if it’s not changed, we’re not going to have a country anymore.”

During the segment, Trump discussed his social media site, Truth Social. Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) and Digital World Acquisition Corp. (DWAC) shareholders agreed to merge, allowing the former president’s business to go public.

The new organization is currently running Truth Social, a social media platform created two years ago to compete with Facebook and Twitter. Early Wall Street estimates say that TMTG is worth around $9 billion.
