On Monday, the US Supreme Court sent the case of Trump v. United States back to a lower court in Washington, which per AP has the effect of "dimming prospect of a pre-election trial". The majority opinion, authored by Chief Justice Roberts, found that:
Under our constitutional structure of separated powers, the nature of Presidential power entitles a former President to absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority. And he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts. There is no immunity for unofficial acts.
