Roberts et al knew EXACTLY what they were doing - gutting and re-writing the Constitution.
The 6 are crooked but why would they go THAT far?
B/c they know Trump is guilty AF (they're partisan & corrupt not stupid).
They knew if trials proceeded Trump & enablers were finished. And GOP was too.
The way they wrote it, THEY HAVE CONTROL. Six UNQUALIFIED AND UNELECTED WANNA-BE KINGMAKERS.
The immunity only holds if SCROTUS approves of it... so Rump can't simply wipe out the whole court.
This ruling puts them and their obscenely rich masters in control.
