A big setback for Donald Trump’s political opponents on Monday at the U.S. Supreme Court.  In a historic ruling the justices said for the first time former presidents can be shielded from prosecution for at least some of what they do in the Oval Office. Democrats have accused Trump of plotting to overturn the 2020 election results . He has denied any wrongdoing and has repeatedly described the charges against him as “election interference.” In extending the delay, the High Court left it to lower courts to decde how their ruling applies to the case against Trump, and all but ends Democrats’ hopes of putting the former president on trial before the November election.
