One way or another he always scurries away. If the SC gives Trump total immunity as POTUS, Biden knows what to do. Because if Trump is the next POTUS with a SC resolution saying that he is immune, he can do whatever he wants without repercussions.
Oh dear lord
I am speechless!
Gird your loins, then hit up twitter to have a look at all the maga accounts giving him attaboy's for how great of an argument it is.
I have seen a lot of dumb takes in my life, but I would never have pinned that on a supreme court justice of any self-respecting country ever.
Clarence, bitch, are you for real?
No amount of stupidity is beyond Clarence Thomas who is one of the worst SC justices of all time. I'd say the worst but Dred Scott and that era were also atrocious.

I was about to say that this is why you need a mandatory retirement age for supreme court justices, but then I saw that he's "only" 75 years old. Then again, that's 5 years older than the mandatory retirement age for supreme court justices here in Norway.

"I don't care about some socialist little European country smaller than a city, this is America" - many countrymen when needing an excuse to be "different".
I can see that kind of talk.
The elephant in the room is that nobody has mentioned SC justices. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that they know they'd be in the firing line and will craft an opinion that would insulate them from such shenanigans.
I agree. Also for politicians.I can see that kind of talk.
Interestingly, Japan, which is considered in a number of ways as a more conservative society than America, also has age 70 as the mandatory retirement age for their own supreme court justices. Even though Canada has the mandatory retirement age at age 75, I honestly believe that 70 is about perfect for a mandatory retirement age for any form of public service and should be a norm in a near future in the US.
Now I understand all his lawyers quit despite being paid fortunes; it‘s not worth it.Back to the matters related to the trial though.

I wonder if someone can order one of those plexiglass boxes for defendants from Russia. Please let him smell his own gas alone rather than making others suffer in that courtroom.
Hamburgers and Diet Coke every day, they say.
I don't get this debating of what is the law. Shouldn't the supreme court know?
When the law is not specfic and is too ambiguous, is open to interpretation...also corrupt interpretation by judges posted by Trump. It is impossible to create laws for every single specific case that had happened or we think can happen. That is why sometimes semantics and open interpretation can bring problems like that

That's what the DA asked for, right?
To the best of my knowledge, the DA wouldn't have any say in it. The judge is constrained with fines or confinement and the fines are apparently capped at 1k per incident. So in the absence of sending him to jail, he can only fine him. There is apparently another option of home confinement with an ankle bracelet, so he may look at that if Trump keeps it up.
The unfortunate part of that (for him) is his base is pretty tapped out financially.
I doubt ACB would vote like the latter 2, but none of them actually want to make a decision, they'll punt it back to the lower courts which will just delay it, if Trump gets reelected then nothing would happen for at least 4 years, if ever, if Biden wins then it'll be back there again
