'The only one that will pull America out of this march towards autocracy is if they rule that Donald Trump is not above the law,' Glenn Kirschner said.
The U.S. Supreme Court has three ways to resolve former President Donald Trump's presidential immunity claim, according to legal analyst Glenn Kirschner on Saturday.Trump, the presumed 2024 GOP presidential nominee, has sought to use the presidential immunity defense to shield himself from a plethora of criminal and civil challenges. Most notably, he has sought the defense in his federal election interference case surrounding the events that led to the U.S. Capitol riot on January 6, 2021.
The Constitution, of course, does not provide that a president is immune from prosecution, in fact it provides the exact opposite, expressly,' he said.He continued: 'The second possibility is the Supreme Court justices can be so interested and enamored of this nonsensical argument of outer perimeter official acts of a president, maybe some light criminal treason around the edges by Donald Trump.
