Trump’s lawyer claimed absolute immunity comes from the Vestiture Clause, which vests executive power in the President. By attempting to block the certification, he was preventing power from vesting in the newly-elected President, i.e., making the Constitution itself inoperational.

Finding that immunity exists under these facts would allow the presidency to be a constitutional poison pill

Any sane person knows the SCOTUS should never even have considered the argument.

Now we’re left with the Kangaroo Court’s decision.
