MSNBC's anchors and expert guests analyze the Supreme Court's immunity ruling

I examined the Supreme Court hearing Trump's immunity appeal through comedy to begin March. It seems all the late-night talk show hosts are off this week for the 4th of July, so I can't filter yesterday's Supreme Court ruling granting U.S. Presidents immunity from prosecution for official acts through comedy. How bleak and disappointing! I was looking forward to hearing their audiences boo as loudly as they cheered when told about Trump's indictment. Maybe next week.

Instead, I'm sharing MSNBC's afternoon and evening anchors plus expert guests confront the decision with their hair on fire in Trump v. United States: Supreme Court rules on presidential immunity | MSNBC Highlights.

The Supreme Court's ruling in Donald Trump's presidential immunity claim could transform the power of the presidency and will likely delay Trump's federal election interference trial until after November's election. In a scathing dissent, Justice Sonia Sotomayor said the president "is now a king above the law." MSNBC’s Chris Hayes, Rachel Maddow and more are joined by legal experts to analyze what the court's immunity decision means for Trump's criminal cases and the future of democracy.
On the one hand, well-said, all of you, including President Biden. On the other, there's nothing funny about any of this other than to share some gallows humor from Animal Farm about the new legal status of the President.


Oink.
