column is that love it or hate it he would come in as one of the most powerful

figures and he would he would stress test it immediately to have very

specific plans this is not the haphazard Trump that we covered in 2017. This is a much more organized

operation at least the people in the institutions around him. So it was

gobsmacking when the Supreme Court took it up but I remember talking to you that

day and in my glass- empty kind of way I thought well the worst

Even under the worst case scenario it's not like they're going to decide that he's immune

It's just outrageous that they've taken it up because this

will allow for months of delay and will effectively give him temporary

immunity before the election and once the election happens if he wins he makes all the

prosecutions go away anyway. I really did not expect that they would do this and

they you know Donald Trump and his counsel asked for this 100% absolute immunity thing

which was insane I would say they got 105% of what they were asking for. They got immunity from this court,

despite some of the language in Justice Roberts's ruling saying that there was

some measure of humility or some measure of restraint, the practical

impact of what they have done is to give Trump immunity that even he and his

counsel did not ask for. And given that the hypotheticals over the course of these arguments as you

rightly pointed out included things like can the president assassinate

arrival I think we have to look at the Supreme Court's affirmative answer to that. Yes, you can.

With as much seriousness as it deserves. I mean, this is a death squad ruling.

This is a ruling that says that as long as you can

construe it as an official or quasi-official act you can do absolutely anything, absolutely anything and never be held accountable not only while you are president
