Senate Judiciary panel to hold hearing on SCOTUS presidential immunity ruling

It's possible that Donald Trump shouldn't start his victory celebration just yet.

Sure, on July 1, the Supreme Court may have decided that "presidents have presidential immunity for some 'official acts,' but not unofficial ones. However, the high court has not specified what constitutes official versus unofficial acts."

The Senate Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing this September "on the impact of the Supreme Court's presidential immunity ruling, and whether new legislation will be necessary to limit its effect."

You read that right.

Congressmen are getting together to decide if America should abide by the Supreme Court's recent ruling on Donald Trump's immunity.

Dick Durbin, the Senate Majority Whip who leads the committee, said that the hearing might examine possible legal and policy ramifications of the Supreme Court's recent ruling.

"During this upcoming hearing, we will examine the breadth of future misconduct that may be immunized from prosecution, consider the unprecedented nature of this immunity in American history, and discuss legislative solutions to the dangers of this decision," Durbin said, adding:

This dangerous decision immunizes presidents who commit crimes, no matter how serious, as long as they claim their offenses were 'official acts.'

This is the last thing that Trump wanted to hear.

If there is a silver lining for Trump, it's that "no official date has been set for the hearing so far."

Each day and minute that this thing drags on is beneficial to Donald Trump. It's possible that Trump's path to victory might not to be fighting these charges in a courtroom.

Instead, the more Trump the man can delay his trials, the more likely it is that he, America's next president, could make many of his legal problems go away.

Liberals are working hard to put Trump behind bars, but they'd better get some dates on the calendar quickly or none of this is going to matter.

Do you think Trump will win the election this November despite all these distractions?
