How the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity decision could change everything

Donald Trump is currently embroiled in four different criminal cases, one of which involves the question of presidential immunity.

On Wednesday this week, the Supreme Court agreed to hear Trump’s case regarding whether or not he has presidential immunity when it comes to his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

“I think this is good news,” says Glenn Beck. “Can Donald Trump be held now in a criminal case for his acts as president? The answer has always been no.”

“That should have been stopped by Congress or the Supreme Court … as an official act,” he explains.

According to Glenn, if the justices rule that a president can do “an official act and then be held in criminal court,” it will allow opponents “to prosecute any president that's running a second term.”

Further, such a ruling would “completely gut our president.”

The sitting president has full immunity as the chief executive, but in order to be imprisoned, “he would need to be impeached first and then removed from office,” explains Stu Burguiere, adding that this isn’t in the Constitution but has long been the “guideline.”

The SCOTUS hearing is set to take place in April, which at least would “slow down the Jack Smith trial on Donald Trump.”

“I think Donald Trump is in the best position he’s been in since all this started,” says Stu.
