Mike Cernovich: SCOTUS most likely to rule against Trump while upholding presidential immunity generally. J6 will be outside of scope of immunity.

Deep State’s SCOTUS will decide whatever Deep State tells it to decide.

Isn’t enforcing election laws within the Presidential ambit?

So some pundit puts out an opinion, big deal, his guess is as good as anyone’s. When a POTUS can’t protest an election in the country, we have a big problem and a President’s power will be 0.

Attorney Robert Gouveia Esq. has been saying for a long time, that the president has a legitimate responsibility to see that at least federal elections are free, fair, and accurate. The fact that he was a candidate is irrelevant.

Jay Sekulow, who is a constitutional lawyer and was Trump’s legal counsel in his Impeachments, believes Trump will win at the SC and get immunity. There is no authority to determine which actions are within or outside a president’s duties.

I think that the Supreme Court will adopt some iteration of qualified sovereign immunity. Integral to this concept is whether the employee was acting within the normal course and scope of his job. If he was, he is immune. If he wasn’t, there is no immunity.

“Trump’s actions were in the normal course and scope of his position/employment .

To which specific actions of Trump are referring prior to noon on January 20, 2021 that would not fall under immunity?

If it is the speech on January 6, 2021 be specific.

I think that if SCOTUS was going to rule unfavorably they would have just not taken the case and let the lower court stand.

You are just dying for Trump to be found guilty and everyone in his family as well, of this KAFAKAESQUE crap; just admit it!

The truth is, Cernovich has less than NO idea what SCOTUS will or will NOT decide and the ONLY thing that such threads do, is stir up the pot.

“It would be prejudging the case that Trump was not acting within his official on J6.”

That’s exactly the point. If SCOTUS rules against they’ve convicted him.

If they rule in favor PDJT is aquitted - as he already was at impeachment.

Probably something in between.

He doesn’t know what SCOTUS will do anymore than we do.

Cernovich is wrong.

SCOTUS is about to define presidential immunity to include speech making.

Trump did not instigate an insurrection, nor was he convicted of such because such a charge is just is not supported by fact.

That could be the tipping point needed.

Excellent. I get it.

Whether anyone else does, I have doubts.

Not to mention the fact that there was NO “insurrection”, as an “insurrection” is defined!

He may be right. It should all get thrown out at the lower court level because on its face, it’s all lies, but there have to be allegations that are beyond privilege.

For instance, President Biden can’t just shoot every Republican he sees, and have that only be an Impeachment possibility.

First the court has to determine what the standard is before one can apply the facts to the standard. I am merely stating that the Court may adopt an iteration of the qualified sovereign immunity concept.

The key is qualified immunity versus full immunity which Trump's lawyers are allegedly championing.
