I saw this on Twitter/X as well.
Speculation there was also about the Trump Immunity case.
I’m surprised the ruling didn’t leak weeks ago like the Dobbs case did.
The outcome of the Alvin Bragg case likely changed some minds on the court. The real threat to democracy is a president who has to fear malicious prosecutions in state courts or from a politicized DoJ not a presidential extrajudicial execution which we have already seen during the Obama administration which the DoJ said is A OK.
My guess is the court will say a president cannot be indicted and tried until he has first been impeached. That was in my opinion clearly the intent of the framers. That would neatly kill all this lawfare. Anything that tries to distinguish between official and personal actions is hopelessly complicated because all too often a presidents personal interests and official duties are hopelessly intertwined. For instance if a president believes fraud influenced an election he has both a duty to try and do something about it and a personal stake in the outcome if he was the candidate impacted. How do you separate the two motivations and why should it matter?
