The Supreme Court ruled that former President Donald Trump has "absolute immunity" from prosecution for official acts during his presidency. This decision vacates an earlier ruling and allows lower courts to determine the scope of this immunity. The ruling could delay the trial schedule in the 2020 election case against Trump. Chief Justice Roberts emphasized that presidential actions in carrying out constitutional duties cannot be criminalized, applying this protection to all presidents. Trump's legal team argued that his actions were official acts, but the extent of immunity remains to be clarified by lower courts. #SupremeCourt #TrumpImmunity #PresidentialImmunity #SCOTUS #LegalUpdate #2020Election #PoliticalNews #JusticeSystem #USPolitics #RatedRed
