- For Presidential Immunity; putting the President above the law.
- Supreme Court rulings have a tremendous effect on the citizens of this country.
- PLUS: The Senate works with the House to pass budgets, legislation, and declare War (which the current Republicans never did; they just allow Trump to do what he wants.)
