The question is whether the USSC will give absolute immunity or limit it to official acts.
I can't imagine them granting absolute immunity. I think a lot of people are going to be disappointed by their opinion. It seems like they'll just say that official acts are immune and then try and set up a way for future courts/prosecutors to determine what is and isn't an official act.
Without any facts in Trump's case, I don't see how they'll rule specifically about him. They can't determine whether what he did was in his official capacity if they don't have anything other than allegations at this point.

Yup. Then they'll kick it back to the trial court for determinations. That was my prediction yesterday after having listened to none of the oral arguments.

They'd have to have a hearing on this issue to sort that out.
