Trump was entitled to absolute immunity, rap music started blaring outside the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lyrics, laced with expletives, denounced Mr. Trump, and several dozen demonstrators began chanting, \u201cTrump is not above the law!\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The justices heard arguments in the immunity case at a special session, the day after what had been the last scheduled argument of its term. Arguments heard in late April almost always yield decisions near the end of the court\u2019s term, in late June or early July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But a ruling in early summer, even if it categorically rejected Mr. Trump\u2019s position, would make it hard to complete his trial before the election. Should Mr. Trump win at the polls, there is every reason to think he would scuttle the prosecution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The oral argument lasted nearly three hours, as the justices tangled with a lawyer for the former president and a Justice Department lawyer. A majority of the justices appeared skeptical of the idea of sweeping presidential immunity. However, several of them suggested an interest in drawing out what actions may be immune and what may not \u2014 a move that could delay the former president\u2019s trial if the Supreme Court asks a lower court to revisit the issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of the justices seemed to be considering the idea that presidents should enjoy some form of protection against criminal prosecution. The devil, however, will be in the details: How should that protection extend?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And that question will have profound relevance not only for future presidents, but much more immediately for Donald Trump. The court could decide to draw those rules itself in a broad way for history. Or it could send this case back to a lower court to set the rules of what form immunity could take. If the case is sent back for further proceedings, it could have a dramatic effect on the timing of Trump\u2019s trial, pushing it well past the election in November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shahennews.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14171\" style=\"width:840px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shahennews.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.shahennews.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.shahennews.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-768x512.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shahennews.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14172\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shahennews.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.shahennews.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-1-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.shahennews.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-1-768x512.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>shahennews Such a ruling in the case, on whether the former president is immune from prosecution, would probably send it back to a lower court and could delay any trial until after the November election.
