    Got damn. Mr. Smith is on this. Betting the Court defers to the lower court’s ruling denying presidential immunity. Bet if they do hear it, they still call him liable.

    Remember, not all their rulings have been conservative, and they owe Trump nothing for their seat. I honestly think Trump assumed he was buying Justices and they would always rule for him. LOL no.

      I seriously doubt Trump actually picked his SC nominees. Some aid probably presented him with a list of three names and he picked the coolest sounding ones. They are Federalist Society judges, not MAGA republicans. They don’t give a shit about protecting Trump (except maybe the one with a huge conflict of interest)

      It was super clever of Mr. Smith. He’s addressing the delay tactics immediately to prevent them from running out the clock in 2024. It’s really encouraging that he understood this and acted to stop it
