Supreme Court Leans Towards Rejecting Trump's Immunity Claim, Ponders Delay in Trial

The Supreme Court appears likely to deny Donald Trump's broad immunity claim, but debates on the need for further proceedings could delay his trial, possibly affecting the upcoming election.

• The Supreme Court heard extensive arguments on whether former President Trump can claim immunity for actions taken during his presidency, particularly concerning his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results.
• Justices expressed skepticism about granting broad immunity, with discussions on the distinction between official and private acts central to the proceedings.
• The possibility of remanding the case for additional analysis by lower courts could delay Trump's trial, potentially beyond the November election.
• Legal experts and justices debated hypothetical scenarios, including whether a president could order illegal acts like coups or assassinations under the guise of official acts.
• The decision, expected by late June, will have significant implications for the presidency and the legal accountability of future presidents.
