Leah Litman, professor at the University of Michigan Law School and co-host of the "Strict Scrutiny" podcast, talks with Alex Wagner about notable differences in how the court deals with cases involving Donald Trump.

Trump has been a strong leader and proven he doesn’t allow his opposition to get to him. Anyone one else would have bowed out, but Trump has sacrificed all of his wealth and freedom.

@@ToxicSkeptic No, the SC may decide that anything the POTUS does is an Official Act, including bumping off anyone. Impeachment can be avoided by 1: Pardoning oneself, therefore no crime 2: If it's an Official Act it can't be a High Crime or Misdemeanor 3: two thirds majority needed in Senate ,Republicans have shown they won't do this to Trump after an insurrection , imagine if a death squad was on standby as well.

If a president has absolute immunity, then there would be no reason they couldn't throw justices off the Supreme Court simply because they didn't like the way they ruled on an issue. Their justification would merely have to be because I said so.

Trump is a classic narcissist using the classic narc playbook. For example, he drops these hints of actions he’ll take as if it’s a joke, planting the idea and gauging the reaction/response. By doing this, he’s weakening boundaries and laying the ground work for pushing back goalposts. And it works. Rather than be incensed or horrified by statements such as, “I’ll be dictator for a day,” or making claims he’ll make retribution, etc., his base laughs at it as though it’s hyperbole. But then it sinks in and as they get comfortable with it they begin saying stupid things like, “Well, maybe we need a dictator to clean house for a bit.” They imagine what it would be like to shut down all their imagined enemies, maybe not considering what that actually means. But the idea settles in and now we’re seeing “Trump: Dictator for Life” crap. God help us all because this path is how America dies.

So what would be a good term limit. Certainly not a lifetime appointment but certainly nothing short either so that laws aren't constantly being flipped back and forth as soon as the new ones are appointed. It really is tricky but I would rather remove the supreme Court entirely and leave these cases to the people, when one is brought up people would get a month to vote and the opinion that receives the most votes would be the winner.

I think it’s time to have the public step in. 1.) make the Supreme Court and any other political position to have a term limit. No longer than 4 years. 2.) Since it’s a PUBLIC position that they also carry the same insurance that public servants receive. Having worked with insurance they receive the highest level of healthcare and we the public purchase these plans for them. Very very comfortable benefits for free. 3.) if something is on the table for determination that they complete this NON STOP until a resolution is established. Pushing time lines, leaving office for 6 months, yada, yada, yada, has to stop. TODAY! Do the job you’re elected BY THE PEOPLE to do. It’s time the USA makes major changes in leadership in ALL areas. In the case of Trump- why has it taken years? If it were a normal citizen we wouldn’t receive that kind of treatment. We would be held in jail until a verdict was determined. It seems that laws and things are cherry picked to fit the case of high profile persons of power. Look at Thomas and the gifts that were not reported. That’s dishonest and untrustworthy for one of the highest ranking judges to rule over America. Immediate discharge should’ve taken place including loss of every benefit the job came with. Still don’t understand why we have them in office FOR LIFE.

But that’s why SCOTUS wants to delay its decision until after the election. They don’t want Biden to be given the blanket immunity from prosecution prior to the election that they are willing to grant Trump if he is re-elected. They want to keep their powder dry. If they gave it before the election then Biden would have carte blanch to bar Trump from the election arguing, with good reason, that he was acting in the service of protecting the constitution from sliding into a dictatorship. That would be within his presidential remit and he would be assured immunity from prosecution.
