Joe Biden says Donald Trump Supreme Court ruling undermines rule of law

In a recent Supreme Court ruling, former President Donald Trump was granted partial immunity from criminal prosecution, a decision that has sparked debate and criticism from current US President Joe Biden. Biden has condemned the ruling, stating that it sets a “dangerous precedent” and undermines the “rule of law”, calling it a “terrible disservice” to Americans.

The Supreme Court justices found that a president has immunity for “official acts” but not for “unofficial acts”, ultimately delaying the criminal case against Trump for allegedly attempting to subvert the 2020 election results. Trump, on the other hand, celebrated the decision as a “big win” for democracy.

This controversial ruling has reignited discussions about presidential immunity and the limits of executive power. It will be interesting to see how this case unfolds and the implications it may have for future legal proceedings involving former presidents. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
