During a recent historic Supreme Court session, Chief Justice John Roberts remained mostly silent but conveyed key points. The court seems unlikely to uphold a lower court ruling denying Donald Trump absolute immunity. Roberts emphasized that the court cannot rely solely on prosecutors' good faith and that the election subversion allegations against Trump are not the primary focus of the case.
Roberts strategically withheld his stance on the case's merits, allowing for more flexibility in the decision-making process. It appears that a majority of justices may reject Trump's broad proposition and hold former presidents accountable for criminal acts committed while in office.
