This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

I see this as a calculated decision by airborneirish
There is a non negligible chance that Trump regains the Presidency. If he does, he might blather on about his supposed immunity because "the supreme court, that supreme law of the land, holds our nation together folks. Very good justices. I appointed three of them you know... they didn't rule. That court in the Swamp... they ruled.. unjustly I might add... you know my wife..."
By granting cert and ruling they will take that risk off the table. Then the buffoon will go to trial and he will likely abscond. Fin.
