The U.S. Supreme Court is currently deliberating on whether former President Donald Trump should be granted immunity from criminal prosecution for actions taken during his presidency, particularly in relation to his attempts to overturn the 2020 election results. The case has seen arguments from Trump's legal team advocating for broad presidential immunity, while various justices have shown skepticism towards this claim. The decision, which could potentially delay Trump's trial until after the 2024 election, is expected to significantly influence the scope of presidential powers and the legal accountability of U.S. presidents.
