i think we should see the Trump v. United States ruling as a group of Republican apparatchiks taking their opportunity to vindicate Nixon and write the unitary executive into the Constitution. www.nytimes.com/2024/07/02/o...

Yes, but the key is that their belief is that the “unitary executive” is for Republicans only — Democrats can and should be thwarted at every step. This decision perfectly threads that needle, by leaving in the hands of this Court the ability to decide whether and to whom immunity applies.
