U.S. SUPREME COURT SEEMS SKEPTICAL OF TRUMP’S CLAIM OF ABSOLUTE IMMUNITY

In April, the Supreme Court likely rejected former President Donald Trump’s claim of absolute immunity from prosecution over election interference.
However, several justices signaled reservations about the charges, which could cause a lengthy delay, possibly extending beyond November’s election. A majority of the justices did not appear to support the claim of absolute immunity that would stop special counsel Jack Smith’s prosecution of Trump on charges of conspiring to overturn his 2020 election loss to Democrat Joe Biden.
The timing of the Supreme Court’s decision is not constitutional, but it could have significant implications for the 2024 election.
