On July 1, the U.S. Supreme Court determined that Donald Trump retains partial immunity from prosecution as a former President, a decision expected to postpone his trial for allegedly conspiring to overturn the 2020 election. Chief Justice John Roberts, delivering the majority opinion, stated that a President enjoys "absolute immunity" from criminal prosecution for official actions taken during their tenure in office. He clarified that this immunity does not extend to unofficial actions, directing lower courts to discern which charges against the former president involve official or unofficial conduct. However, three liberal justices dissented, including Justice Sonia Sotomayor, who emphasized that no President in U.S. history has had grounds to believe they are immune from criminal prosecution for misusing their office for unlawful purposes. "With deep concern for our democracy, I dissent," she remarked. Mr. Trump's initial trial date in the election case was set for March 4, well ahead of his November rematch with President Joe Biden. However, the Supreme Court — with a majority of conservative justices, including those appointed by Mr. Trump during his presidency — agreed in February to review his claim for presidential immunity, pausing the case while they deliberated on the issue in April. Confronted with four criminal cases, Mr. Trump has been employing every available tactic to postpone the trials until after the election at the earliest.
