Of course Democrats are distorting the ruling. The ruling says the president, and only the president, has immunity from prosecution for official acts. It leaves the decision on what is an official act to the courts, but bars them from considering motive when it looks at the acts. It also says the courts have to follow due process to determine if the president's act was an official act of the executive branch or something else. Remember, Judge Tanya Chutkan made an arbitrary decision against Trump claiming he was not immune because his acts were not in his official capacity. But she held no hears, gathered no evidence not did she accept arguments from both sides. The SCOTUS did not say Trump is immune, it only said she needs to determine if he is immune by first determining if he is acts could be his executive responsibility. Now Judge Chutkan will have to hold hearings where both sides will present arguments. It's called due process.
The fact is we all know the president has certain powers no one else has. The power to pardon, for example. He has executive privilege. He can classify or declassify any information for any reason. Immunity is nothing new and it has been exercised by the government in the past. Clinton lying under oath for example. Obama droning American citizens. Nixon bombing Hanoi. There are probably tons of other examples. In the past, both parties exercised restraint and deference when it came to p residents. Blame the Democrats for using lawfare to attack Trump. That is what brought this ruling about.
And by the way, those Democrats calling for Biden to kill Trump should ask themselves this question. Even before this ruling, if Biden had used Seal Team 6 to kill Trump would his DOJ even try to prosecute him? Of course they wouldn't. But if they did, they would have to go to court and prove Biden was not acting in an official capacity when he ordered the murder.
