SCOTUS to Hand Trump More Power, Shocking Absolutely No One
The prospect of a Supreme Court—three of whose justices were appointed by the very president in question—expanding executive immunity isn't a forecast, it's a procedural formality. This legal maneuvering isn't about discerning constitutional truth; it's about solidifying pathways for future authoritarianism, regardless of who occupies the Oval Office. Remember when we learned about 'checks and
balances' in civics class? Apparently, the checks are in the mail, perpetually delayed. One might wonder if the concern for presidential overreach extends equally when it's a Democrat in power, or if the court's 'interpretations' simply align with a pre-determined political agenda. The U.S. has a long history of presidents pushing executive boundaries; this court just seems keen on drafting the
official rules enabling it. How convenient for those who decried 'out-of-control' government during past administrations to now champion absolute immunity.
