Where's the MAGA Kryptonite?

On Feb. 6, 2024, a D.C. Circuit Court's three-judge panel ruled unanimously that Trump does not have a blank check for immunity. Maybe those three judges still agree with those of us who believe that nobody has ever had such an anti-rule-of-law thing in the USA. Of course, since he lost (again), Trump appealed (again).

However, on Feb. 28, 2024, instead of stating the obvious -- that the appellate court panel's ruling was spot on, so there's no need to hear the case again -- the Supreme Court announced the date it had selected to begin to hear pro-and-con oral arguments on Trump's immunity claim issue.

Coast-to-coast, wishful thinking Democrats and anti-Trumplicans of every stripe groaned. Looking back on that sad day, it seems too many of us had jumped to the conclusion that the D.C. appellate court's ruling was tantamount to MAGA Kryptonite.

Phooey!

Thus, on April 22, the Supremes will have to sit and listen to Trump's legal team explain why the hell the Insurrectionist in Chief should never have to face the music spawned by 91 felonies. At least why he should definitely not have his free speech stifled by having to take time away from his political circus road show, to endure trials for having done stuff that is only alleged to be criminal by non-believers.

Ha! That's it. Trump's last resort defense will be that if He, the Second Coming does it, in this Christian nation it simply cannot be criminal.

Where's that damn MAGA Kryptonite?
