WASHINGTON — Lawsuits seeking to hold Donald Trump personally accountable for his role in the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol can move forward after the former president chose not to take his broad immunity claim to the Supreme Court.
Trump had a Thursday deadline to file a petition at the Supreme Court contesting an appeals court decision from December that rejected his immunity arguments, but he did not do so.
The appeals court made it clear that Trump could still claim immunity later in the proceedings in three cases brought by Capitol Police officers and members of Congress.
He wants to do it later to strategically delay the trial.
He wants to delay it till the Supreme Court is under the thumb of Emperor Trump
That isn’t now?
They’re gonna have to sink to even lower levels to handle the bullshit Trump has in store for them.
This could be true
but the Paula Jones rulings are pretty clear that he doesn’t have immunity
