Personally, I doubt Trump gives two hoots and is enjoying stringing them along.

Catch Trump haters Napolitano and Stirreald basking in glee thathis decision hurts the President. This decision will not dampen Trump supporters.

His taxes will invariably end up with the Slimes by the end of the summer.

Question for all you legal eagles- the case goes back to the lower courts. After arguments the lower court sides with Vance/NY and rules against the President. Is team Trump then allowed to appeal to the Supreme Court- again??

CORRECT!

This was about ABSOLUTE IMMUNITY. The SCOTUS was NEVER going to agree the office of President was “Above the Law”.

This is all about DELAY and TRUMP tying things up in the courts.

“ His taxes will invariably end up with the Slimes by the end of the summer.”

No question if, but when. I bet Trump can delay this in lower courts until after Nov.

I was watching Fox Business which wasn’t asking a rabid anti-Trumper for interpretation.

Start the war in earnest

The left started it a long, long time ago. We're just too chickensh*t to do anything about it. See tagline.

This will be returned to lower courts where Trump can advance further arguments.

Ruling; Trump can also refile in federal courts

Most of the right is clueless. They don’t want to acknowledge the ugly realities and dangers that we are facing. They have this “goodness” will prevail attitude.

I’m not sure what it will take to wake them up.


They never will. Not even after Florida and Texas are solid blue states due to policies supported by the GOP.

No legal eagle but Trump can always appeal. As to whether the Court would take it up would depend on whether there's a new legal controversy SCOTUS hasn't considered.

Judicial Watch - doing the work of our U.S. Congress.

So in essence this is a slight win for prosecutors but not for Congress. However like any legal battle a prosecutor can’t just up and ask for anyone’s records for no reason (Gee...I just want to see); if there’s no legitimate criminal investigation the Trump lawyers can argue in the courts for months and years against such release

-- The SCOTUS was NEVER going to agree the office of President was "Above the Law". --

I was a 1L when Clinton v. Jones was running, and one of the class assignments was to brief the case. I got a pretty deep dive into the general subject back then, and you are right, no way is absolute anything going to fly.

Nice to see Team Trump using the system to advantage.

Press coverage is and will always be the usual misleading garbage.
