  • Resumen

  • Last week, the United States Supreme Court ruled that former presidents are entitled to immunity from prosecution for “official actions” they undertook while occupying the highest office.

    The impact of this historic decision could shred crucial parts of the court cases against Donald Trump, as he vies for presidential election in November.

    Will the court decision mean he is now above the law, or, is there a good reason to protect both former and sitting presidents from prosecution?

    And with conservative judges behind this ruling, did ideology play a part?

    Today, North American correspondent Farrah Tomazin explains what was behind the decision, and the impact it could have on Trump’s upcoming trials, and even, more broadly, on American democracy.
