'Did you figure that out on your own': Internet divided as Sean Hannity claims Trump's immunity case will have 'lasting ramifications'

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: In a highly anticipated development, today marked a pivotal moment at the US Supreme Court as oral arguments delved into the contentious issue of presidential immunity.

In the same light, Sean Hannity, a prominent voice in conservative media, wasted no time dissecting the significance of these proceedings, saying that former president Donald Trump's immunity case will have lasting ramifications. 

Sean Hannity examines Presidential immunity debate

"Important – very important – oral arguments today at the US Supreme Court on presidential immunity," Hannity remarked, setting the stage for a discussion on an issue that could reshape the legal landscape surrounding presidential accountability.

"A decision here will not only have an immediate impact on the weaponized DOJ quest to prosecute Trump from now until Election Day in 193 days," Hannity pointed out and continued, "But it will have lasting ramifications or as Neil Gorsuch, as the justice put it: "We're writing a rule for the ages," he added. 

The central question under scrutiny was whether a US President could be prosecuted for actions taken while in office, probing the boundaries of presidential immunity.

Hannity delved into hypothetical scenarios, questioning, "Can Obama be charged, for example, for killing Americans in a drone strike which happened overseas? Can George W Bush be charged with allegedly lying to Congress about Iraq, if a far left prosecutor decides to cook up charges? And could Joe Biden be charged for killing a family in Afghanistan during his deadly withdrawal?"

"Ultimately, the constitutional judges on the court seem to favor limited immunity over absolute immunity," Hannity observed, hinting at a potential shift in legal doctrine.

"But in other words, that would be a huge win for Donald Trump. Official acts carried out by a president would be immune from prosecution," he added.

"However, a president could still be charged for personal acts like taking bribes, oh, maybe from, like, the former first lady of Moscow," he quipped, alluding to controversial associations involving Joe Biden.

"That's right, the Russian oligarch that Joe had dinner with at Cafe Milano," Hannity concluded.
