Trump won...narrowly...

This will be tough decision for the Supreme Court. Except for the liberals. I think they see what is happening to President Trump with the lawfare being used against him, and they want to protect him and others from this type of harassment, but they do not want to give the President full immunity. It will be interesting to see what they come up with. At least two libs on the court could care less as long as they get Trump. This quote from Justice Roberts of all people may set the tone.

Conservative Chief Justice John Roberts signaled concern about relying merely on the "good faith" of the prosecutors to prevent abusive prosecutions against presidents if the Supreme Court rejects presidential immunity.

"Now you know," Roberts told Dreeben, "how easy it is in many cases for a prosecutor to get a grand jury to bring an indictment. And reliance on the good faith of the prosecutor may not be enough in some cases"
