"Trump Insists on Total Presidential Immunity Despite Legal Ruling Awaited"

TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump is awaiting a ruling from a federal appeals court on his claim of presidential immunity, asserting that a U.S. president "must have complete and total presidential immunity." The court is expected to issue a ruling in the case brought by Trump to dismiss the federal election interference case against him, with the possibility of the case eventually reaching the Supreme Court. Trump's argument is that his efforts to overturn the 2020 election fell within his official duties as president, but the judges appeared skeptical of his position during oral arguments.
