Maybe off the track a bit but there are an awful lot of fund raising opportunities now that Trump is a "felon". One of the best I saw is, "I'm voting for the candidate declared mentally competent to stand trial." Brilliant!!

The Supreme Court is already considering presidential immunity in the DC federal case. As famed attorney Robert Barnes notes, it is now under considerable pressure to expand the ruling to influence the flawed verdict in this case. Counterintuitively, the leftists on the high court can undo the political damage to themselves (and the country) by extending immunity to include the phony hush money case and say that impeachment should have preceded the indictment (or at least the court should have considered the issue in a separate hearing with interlocutory appeals available).

1. They can give their own side a talking point of Trump escaping only because of the supreme court the leftists have been trying to smear for decades and take the discussion off of the awful actions of this horrible judge.

2. They give Biden a path that involves not having to pardon himself if they rule impeachment is a prerequisite before indictment. If Trump holds the lead through November, Biden will have to have a pretty long pardon list, including his family. Pardoning himself will effectively be an admission that he was indeed bribed by Red China, Ukraine, and others. Protection via an impeachment conviction barrier would mean he only need 40 Dems in the senate to put party over country.

Trump should also be discussing the congressional hush money payments and the Hillary misreporting over the Steele dossier. Both were actually crimes, and none of the involved got prosecuted.
