Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) lauds the Supreme Court’s decision to uphold presidential immunity, calling it a significant win against the Democrats.
What Happened: Greene, in a post on X, on Monday, expressed her support for the Supreme Court’s decision in favor of presidential immunity. She hailed the ruling as a major blow to the Democrats’ politicized government.
She stated that the Democrats have been relentless in weaponizing the government against Joe Biden’s political opponents and their supporters. Greene emphasized the importance of the legal protections provided by the Supreme Court’s decision, regardless of the president’s party.
“If a president cannot work without the fear of being endlessly prosecuted for every action he takes after leaving office, he will never be able to exercise sound judgment and lead our nation,” said Greene.
She credited the ruling for putting an end to the “insane” 2020 election case against Trump, asserting that it is a victory for the American people.

Why It Matters: The Supreme Court’s ruling on presidential immunity has sparked widespread reactions. The ruling, which grants immunity for acts within the Constitutional authority while in office but not unofficial acts, could significantly impact Trump’s pending court cases ahead of the 2024 election.
Biden has expressed his disapproval of the ruling, stating that it fundamentally changes the nation’s founding principles. The decision has also sparked discussions about the implications of presidential immunity on the U.S. legal and political landscape.
Greene’s endorsement of the ruling aligns with the sentiments of many Republicans. The ruling has been praised by Trump himself, who called it a proud moment for America. However, critics argue that the ruling places Trump above the law, contradicting the vision of the nation’s founders.
Greene’s support for the ruling further highlights the deep political divide surrounding the issue of presidential immunity.
