("Supreme Court Agrees to Hear Trump's Immunity Claim, Setting Arguments for April")
"What they said."
That's all it would have taken. If the Supremes had merely recognized that the lower court's well constructed evisceration of Mr. Trump's ludicrous claim of immunity from prosecution did not warrant further explanation or clarification, the former President's trial could have timely moved forward.
Instead it appears that Justices' delay may well be justice denied. And the four or greater who voted to allow the circus to come to town have become nothing more than unindicted co-conspirators in the insurrection.
If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and talks like a quack then it must be the former President hard at work trying to dismantle our democracy.
Donald Trump took dead aim at eliminating the Constitution and the rule of law. His actions can no more be deemed within the scope of a President's proper powers then storming into a convenience store with a loaded gun and demanding all the cash can be considered a request for a loan.
We have watched in disbelief as Mr. Trump has huffed, puffed and strutted his way upon this stage for nearly a decade. We always hoped there would finally be a day of reckoning for the worst of his sins. A day we could say justice had once and for all arrived.
Now, with an able assist from the less than Supremes, that day may never come to pass. Like Elvis, it appears justice has left the building.
It is not if but when that is the crux of the problem
Let’s just hope that SCOTUS rules no immunity.
