Oh, and he'd need 5 SCOTUS justices to delay his criminal trial.
An appeals court already ruled against Trump’s claim of presidential immunity, writing in a 57-page decision, “For the purpose of this criminal case, former President Trump has become citizen Trump, with all of the defenses of any other criminal defendant.”
The three-judge panel for the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals continued in its unanimous opinion: “We cannot accept that the office of the Presidency places its former occupants above the law for all time thereafter. Careful evaluation of these concerns leads us to conclude that there is no functional justification for immunizing former Presidents from federal prosecution in general or for immunizing former President Trump from the specific charges in the Indictment.”

Only four justices must vote to take up Trump’s eventual appeal. But the former president’s emergency request to pause his trial proceedings will require five votes.

@ElwoodBlues I bet that the conservative judges on the SCOTUS are sweating bullets wondering how Quad Indicted thrust this conundrum on them as the facts, the law, the history, and COMMON SENSE all point to his guilt.
