President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Arguments on the absolutely laughable trump claims of immunity on April 22. And who knows on when the ruling will happen?

Seems highly likely this could get pushed past November. What a fucking farce.

 

And that's why Gaza is a gift for Republicans. The "yay for Palestine" voting bloc would probably like for the United States to force Israel to stop rampaging through the region and killing thousands of Muslims as, at minimum, collateral damage. The problem is there's no nice way for them to do that without giving Hamas, which constitutes a clear and present danger and an existential threat to a Jewish state, time to regroup. But neither side is interested in catering to the other's problem.

 

A bigger farce would be SCOTUS ruling the POTUS does have immunity from being held accountable for interfering in our election process.

 

Ruling has to be in by last week of June at the latest. Judge in case has said both sides get three weeks for prep, then jury selection.

 

The stays remain in place until the ruling, and there will be more inevitable delays. Highly skeptical it happens before the election.

 

Not many of them are smart but the Turtle is/was.

 

You could well be right, but there are no scheduled delays,, so any delays that happen aren't inevitable.

 

The Hill is saying a decision would come in June.

 

Every lever will be used to make sure Trump doesn’t face a conviction before Election Day. He will never face a real consequence in his life. Maybe the real estate portfolio has to be sold once he dies and the final strands come unraveled. But that doesn’t hurt anyone but his kids, and he no more gives a shit about them than the rest of us.

Evil wins.
