This is the most important thing, in my opinion, that the fucked up Trump court has ruled on. Saying a president can’t be prosecuted for crimes that were performed as part of his job was wild but unlikely to actually occur. This is both wild and already occurring on a daily basis. This is so unbelievably asinine.
To sum up: if a judge rules a law or action is obviously unconstitutional, the only person it is unconstitutional for is the person who brought the case to that specific judge.
On the one hand this seems awfully terrible for individual citizens that we now all have to file our own lawsuit. But on the other hand it also seems crippling to the federal government having to defend all of those lawsuits.
