Donald Trump, a profoundly corrupt individual, twice impeached, demanded that the Supreme Court provide him immunity protection for his misdeeds. Despite the obvious threat posed by a man favored to retake the Presidency while attacking democratic processes and promising retribution to his political opponents, the Republican majority granted his demand.
