It seems like when you write a decision giving the President king-like powers, you shouldn't be indignant when he acts like a king.

John Roberts helped strip a 50 year long held right from us and is attempting to make Donald Trump a goddamn, motherfucking king, so I do not give a single, solitary fuck if he’s “shaken” by our response to him.

President Biden is endorsing three reforms to the Supreme Court:
1. No Immunity for Crimes a Former President Committed in Office
2. Term Limits for Supreme Court Justices
3. Binding Code of Conduct for the Supreme Court
This is who the Supreme Court is giving absolute power to. pic.twitter.com/cVV6wjUaQr

After the decision yesterday, there’s an argument from necessity for Biden seizing Trump and trying him by military tribunal, given the sudden unavailability of Article III courts. Itʼs just the sort of thing they’ve authorized an active and energetic chief executive to do.

My favorite part will be when the Republicans loving the SCOTUS immunity decision cross Trump in some minor way and suddenly Find Out.

This nation was founded on the principle that there are no kings in America.

Each of us is equal before the law. No one is above it.
Not even the President of the United States.
With today’s Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity, that fundamentally changed.
Lot of polling out of immunity, but perhaps the most interesting finding... Republicans think Trump should be immune for his official acts.

But with a generic president (i.e. no named attached), Republicans don't think the president should be immune from prosecution. pic.twitter.com/9FvzOHq1sb
Today, the Supreme Court placed former President Trump above the law, granting him immunity for much of what he did in using his official power to resist the results of a free and fair election that he plainly lost.

This decision sets a dangerous precedent.
Hi, the Supreme Court isn’t an actual court. It’s six paid operatives pretending to consider arguments while overturning laws for money.

Hope that helps clear up what happened today.
Judge Luttig on #DeadlineWH says there is no reason for #SCOTUS to take the Trump immunity claim, " Look, this is a momentous decision, just to hear this case. There was no reason in this world for the Supreme Court to take this case." pic.twitter.com/daOG14pxxG

Keep in mind that Trump is simultaneously telling courts that he can’t be disqualified from ballots unless he’s been found guilty AND that he can’t be prosecuted for anything he did when he was president. #mepolitics
