I am not a legal Eagle so can someone brake this down for me?

In the scheme of things, this is a victory, but not a HUGE one.

Smith wanted to move his case along, so he asked the court to give an expedited ruling on Trump's immunity issue. The Court refuse to do so.

But they didn't rule in favor of the immunity issue, that is still being litigated.

It would be HUGE, BOMBSHELL, blah blah if the court ruled on the immunity issue - and ruled in Trump's favor.

But that did not happen.

Indeed. She's great at it.

From my understanding...
Jack wanted something done now. Court said no. It will be done later as scheduled.
Jack didn’t get what he wanted. Now.

>>Not even a vote count<<

A very prudent move which mitigates any partisan nature of the decision. Let's hope there is more months delay and frustration to the Leftists as they try their shenanigans.

Bingo!! Absolutely correct. Was this a hollow victory? Perhaps …the ruling isn’t going to stop the witch hunt anytime soon. Nope… it will only get dirtier and demonic! The satanic worshippers know as Lawfare have something evil up their sleeves! This was kabuki theater for them. Evil never rest. They are up to something keep your eyes and ears opened.

If it stops Smith from getting a bogus conviction BEFORE the election then it's big.

I believe that's what this ruling does.

Yep. Certainly less fodder for he left wing media to be sure however, I imagine they’ll figure out a way to spin it as a negative for Trump......after all, it is what they do.

Is this GOOD?
Is this BAD?
Is this NEITHER?

Seems to me that Smith was just asking for a quick reason to exit...............

“Seems to me that Smith was just asking for a quick reason to exit...............”

He wanted to skip over the appeals court. He’ll have to make his arguments. It’s called DUE PROCESS, that is, through the process that has been established.

I don’t want to hear explanations. The state of Alabama has its procedure. And that procedure at this point in time is to have an arraignment. Are we clear on this?”

They did not rule for Trump. They ruled that Smith jumped the appellate court.

People thinking this is some kind of “win” don’t comprehend what happened.

This will still go to trial. Then they will decide if Trump is immune.

Earlier today, Fox News’ Jonathon Turley suggested that this SC move is a slap in Jack Smith’s face and a death blow to his case
And maybe even his job.

Jack Smith comes across like a cringy perpetual student.

As I recall, he’s lost cases in front of SCOTUS before.

I bet SCOTUS members feel a little sorry for him; he just seems beyond stupid...
