And the DCCA ruling isn't as bulletproof as the media is making us believe. This entire event has had horrid reporting.

Heck - the 3 opinions on the DCCA ruling differs to the point not a single justice put their name on it.

I don't think Trump will get immunity / but this will drag out until after the election.

I think SCOTUS will also highly consider the 1A argument - and perhaps the Meese amicus brief can of worms will be open

If scotus decides to take the Meese brief into consideration, they could use that as an off ramp to throw the whole trial out, and not have to rule on immunity one way or the other.
