If the United States continues to be a democracy with free and fair elections, this SCOTUS immunity decision will eventually be removed like other bad SCOTUS decisions. It directly contradicts the constitution. But it would be decades in the future. And if would already serve it's purpose of freeing Trump from his immediate criminal liability. That is what it was written for. His cases right now.

Yeah I suppose that’s a really good point, since it’s only been in the constitution since the 1700’s
“I'm officially offering Joe the chance to redeem himself in front of the entire world. Let's do another debate this week so that Sleepy Joe Biden can prove to everyone all over the world that he has what it takes to be President!"
I'm all for it!
"Joe Biden doesn’t have time for Donald Trump’s weird antics – he’s busy leading America and defending the free world. Donald Trump is a liar, a convict, and a fraud only out for himself – par for the course."

"We’d challenge Donald Trump to create jobs, but he lost 3 million. We’d challenge Donald Trump to stand up to Putin, but he bent the knee to him. We’d challenge Donald Trump to follow the law, but he breaks it. We’d challenge Donald Trump to not destroy our country, but that’s all his Project 2025 aims to do.“
Liberals haven’t lied enough over the past eight years. They’ll cheat like never before. It impossible for them to win without cheating.
That is a good point. Ds' lies have been a tiny fraction of Rs' and it has been a disadvantage. If the Trump party can win with disinformation and chronic lying, then Ds may have to resort to the same to compete. One major hurdle though is that we don't have a media wing with a monopoly on the liberal voter like FOX has on you. That's been crushing us.
You’re a mental case. How is it that so many liberals are lunatics?

What are you even smoking? Which of DT's cases relate to alleged crimes he committed in an official capacity? Paying off hookers? Inflating the value of NYC real estate?
I am no fan of Trump, believe me, but I think you need to loosen the tin foil bandana.

You need to read the ruling and think deeper. Trump is already challenging all of them based on the SCOTUS ruling.
1. NY Hooker case. He is crying foul because Presidential tweets were brought in. And Scotus says the bully pulpit is part of Trump's job. Can't be brought into evidence.
2. Bathroom documents case. Trump is arguing that the case needs to be dismissed because the Special counsel is unconstitutional. Judge Thomas gave Judge Cannon a solid on that one.
3. Jan 6th case. All of Trump's corrupt dealing with Pence, Barr trying to conspire to claim the election was stolen can't be brought into cases. All his admissions that he knew he lost can't be brought in.
4. Atlanta Case- Trump will try again to say his calls to find 11,000 votes was part of the outside perimeter of his duties and can't be brought into evidence.
The SCOTUS made trying these cases (If they ever did reach trial) way harder and almost impossible.
If Lichtman is right, the best scenario for a Dem win is if Biden stays in the race. The second best scenario is if he resigns now so that Harris is already President on election day. Worst scenario is if he stays in until end of his term and then Harris is the candidate. Lichtman says though that the Dem. party is in the driver's seat here. I THINK he's right, but I do believe the door is open for Trump to win. Crazy that that's the case.
Lichtman is certainly what Dems are clinging to for hope. Obama, Silver, and Axelrod don’t seem to be buying Biden and they are the engine that keeps the Democrats going.
I don't think there's any clinging to hope with Lichtman. He has a method that has proven to be very predictive. Obama is not an expert on elections. Silver isn't either as he is a polls compiler.
In any normal election cycle with NORMAL candidates (not one who is a convicted felon and not one who is showing serious age-related decline), I think Lichtman's prediction would be right on the money, and I would have a LOT of faith in it. The problem here is that we are in serious unprecedented waters with both of these candidates.

That is a really bad idea for Trump. If I were him, no way would I do another debate. While dementia (still not determined if that is Biden's issue...lots of things other than dementia can cause some of the issues he's having) is progressive, people DO report moments of lucidity, and if Biden were to happen to have one of those moments in another debate, that would erase the bad one. Biden could say, "I told you I was sick for the last one," etc.
What Trump SHOULD say is, "Look, it was clear that Biden wasn't all there in the last debate. Now, he doesn't want to schedule anything after 8 p.m....that's why we call him "Sleepy Joe." The presidency is not a part-time job. I'm going to do the kind thing and not debate him again. He needs to resign."
The above is what Trump SHOULD do. Allows him to dodge a potential better debate performance by Biden (certainly not guaranteed, but it COULD happen, and Trump should not give him the chance), and it makes him looks sympathetic (which he NEVER does).

Lol
I would love to watch a Trump vs Biden golf match. Not because it would matter who is a better president. I would like to watch Trump play an entire round of golf with the camera on him preventing him from cheating.
Everyone that has ever played with him confirms his golf honesty is right up there with North Koreas former dictator who shot in the 50.s with multiple holes in one.

2 club championships this year Ricky. And that’s saying something in Florida, ground central for golf. Biden couldn’t walk one hole
Immigration surge (I thought that was a conspiracy theory?) bolsters economy.
In other news -- Boston Globe notes that Harvard not searching for a new president as the "interim" president (Alan Garber) is such a stabilizing force and will be kept on.

Lmao! You probably believe Trump won the election in a landslide too.
Trump is such a prolific golfer that he can win the “club” championships when he is out of state on the day they play. Who would question him writing in his score he got a week later playing by himself??
Weird that such a braggadocio golfer forbids anyone from video taping his golf rounds isn’t it? The only footage from his par excellence is from people taking pics off property.
One sports writer confirmed he took 7 mulligans and asked for chip in gimme’s that he missed. Chip in Gimme’s?

The 14th Key doomed Sleepy Joe:
Key 14: Senile Dementia - the incumbent or challenger does not exhibit obvious signs of cognitive decline.
An answer of "FALSE" for Key 14 overrides all the other keys and the incumbent or challenger will lose the election.

yes, the US stock market hit yet another all-time high today. Again. +29% over the past year.
Joe-nomics continues to kick tushie.
you SURE you want to go back to the wall street crashes of Bush2 and Trump? You really think betting your 401k on a con man who bankrupts casinos is a good plan when your portfolio is going to the moon with Biden?
