Trump entitled to absolute immunity for clearly official acts: US Supreme Court

The US Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that former President Trump has “absolute” immunity for official acts, raising concerns about an imperial presidency. The decision, split along conservative-liberal lines, sends Trump’s election interference case back to lower courts, likely delaying it until after the 2024 election. If Trump wins, he can quash the case; if Biden wins, he might gain similar powers. The ruling could reshape presidential immunity, with critics arguing it undermines the principle that no one is above the law.
