“Congressional Republicans, including nearly the entire Senate GOP Conference, signed onto a Supreme Court brief in January backing former President Donald Trump when Colorado state officials tried to prevent him from being on the ballot over his role in the Jan. 6 insurrection,” Punchbowl News reports.
“But that same level of support from Hill Republicans for Trump hasn’t materialized on a separate and equally high-profile argument to the high court — that Trump has absolute immunity from criminal prosecution related to any official actions as president.”
“In fact, the deadline for submitting a brief in support of Trump’s position in the immunity case has already passed.”
