As Trump grasps unprecedented power, the Supreme Court’s decision on presidential immunity looms large | CNN Politics

Summary

74% Informative

The Supreme Court ruled in July that President Trump enjoys “absolute immunity’ from prosecution.

But just how far that immunity extends is murky and lower courts have not yet wrestled with it.

It's not likely that Trump or anyone else will have a firm sense by January of what constitutes “official actions” that are entitled to immunity.

The former president has vowed to “go after” Biden and “the entire Biden crime family” The Supreme Court granted former presidents wide immunity, but the ruling made no such promises to aides in the White House or Justice Department .

That could create a line of defense against a president pushing to the edge of the law.
