MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell details how the arguments by the Supreme Court on Trump's immunity claim reveals the two different kinds of justices on the court, "justices who are trying to protect the #¹Constitution and the law" and justices who are trying to protect "specifically a former president named Trump."

It's been their intention all along! To help Trump delay, delay!
CNN:
Justices appear ready to reject Trump’s sweeping claims of immunity but in a way that will delay the Jan. 6 trial
The upshot is that the Supreme Court appeared likely to leave much of that work to lower courts, proceedings that could take months and further delay a trial...
On Thursday, the #scotus will be hearing arguments where lawyers for the criminal defendant are arguing that all former presidents are forever immune from criminal prosecution for any official acts done in office.
Failure to respect the election of a new President, is the ultimate crime against the people, who are the basis of government. The President, by constitutional design, should have no role- official or unofficial-in the determination of the people's
vote. Immunity for the crimes here alleged would be most abhorrent to the Framers, because immunity would upset the constitutional scheme and aid a President in overriding the people's power over him.
The Framers would also have been appalled that Trump, despite having left office, seeks permanent immunity. As a Federalist wrote for the Maryland ratifying convention:
It seems, however, that the president may possibly be continued for life. He may so, provided he deserve it.
Trump's lawyer is banging the drum that presidents can't be held accountable for official acts.
Justice Kagan asks if a coup is an official act. Lawyer says it could be.
Justice Sotomayor: If a president says a rival is corrupt and orders their assassination, "is that within his official acts for which he can get immunity?"
Trump lawyer D. John Sauer: "It would depend on the hypothetical, but we can see that could well be an official act.
This is so dark. Criminal Conduct Rubbed In The Face Of Americans.
In the crimal defendant's appeal to #scotus on his #January6th criminal fraud to block the certification of our election case, aka immunity delay case, vile fascist Samuel Alito and accused sexual abuser Brett Kavanaugh declined to acknowledge certain facts of the case during the oral arguments. Their stance has drawn attention and raised questions about the case's proceedings.
Corrupt Clarence implies presidents are always committing crimes- a blatent lie, giving cover to the biggest criminal in American history.
Their overtly unethical conduct laid bare in front of Americans, and it was disgraceful. It calls into question their certification and qualifications to work in the legal profession, in any capacity.
Republican partisans are and were during the hearing, a total disgrace to the American legal system.
