The Democratic Party is the exact kind of stupid to have it ruled that a President can assassinate political rivals, refuse to use the power, lose the election, and then act surprised when they all get executed.
The problem is the SCOTUS said "maybe, see what the lower courts say" which is the only winning move for fascists on the question of presidential immunity. We all know what they really want to say is "Trump is immune, Biden is not" and kicking the can down the road until after the election accomplishes that, if Trump wins.
Yes. They'll know what the "Constitutional Originalism" says about this one sometime in November.
If Biden wins no immunity, if Trump wins... Yes immunity
This is exactly what will happen. If there is a ruling that the president can do whatever the fuck, this democracy is done. You'd hope to see Biden go down with the ship shooting from the bow. Unfortunately he wouldn't. Dems will be trying to handshake across the aisle until they are executed the afternoon of Jan. 20th.
"I'd never murder. I value democracy. I will do what I can to help the people and preserve the government. Oh wait sorry, murder is politically convenient? It'd be stupid not to!"
