It will likely deprive the American people of the trial and verdict that they deserve prior to going to the polls in November. It undermines the principle that no one is above the law and allows former President Trump to avoid prosecution on charges that he conspired to overturn the 2020 election until after the current election.\r\n\r\nToday\u2019s decision means that presidents and former presidents are absolutely immune from criminal prosecution for actions related to their core constitutional powers, and presumptively immune from prosecution for \u201cofficial acts.\u201d \u00a0In practice, this makes it nearly impossible for a president to be prosecuted for actions they took in office \u2013 even if those acts were criminal. This is not how a democracy that works for all should function, nor what the framers intended\r\n\r\nNotably, however, the District Court will now take up the questions left by the Supreme Court around whether the former president\u2019s specific conduct was an official or unofficial act, and to what extent the presumption of immunity stands. This means we still have the opportunity to hold former President Trump accountable for his actions in attempting to overturn the will of the people in 2020.\r\n\r\nThe timing of the Court\u2019s action today stands in stark contrast to an earlier expedited ruling from the Court to restore the former president to the ballot in Colorado after the state had ruled him ineligible to hold federal office for inciting an insurrection to overturn the 2020 election. The inconsistency in the Court\u2019s actions in these two cases leave the American people to question to why both were decided on timetables beneficial to the candidacy of former-President Trump.\r\n\r\nRegardless of whether you believe that the Court made the right decision, violence, threats, and harassment are unacceptable in our democracy. We call on elected leaders, candidates, and other thought leaders to use their platforms responsibly to turn down the national temperature.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nTo read Common Cause\u2019s amicus brief in\u00a0<em>Trump gegen die Vereinigten Staaten\u00a0<\/em>dr\u00e4ngen auf eine beschleunigte Entscheidung,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/2024-0408-Trump-v-US-Immunity-Amicus-Brief.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">klicken Sie hier<\/a>."}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_add_component","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_add_component":null},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_work","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_work":{"heading":"Work","manually_curate":false,"work":null}}]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.6 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Delayed &amp; Dangerous SCOTUS Ruling Allows Trump to Avoid January 6th Trial Until After the Election - Common Cause<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Today, in a ruling that likely comes too late to hold a trial prior to the election, the U.S. Supreme Court in Trump v.
