“Trump v. United States is one of the most, if not the most, authoritarian court opinions I have ever read in U.S. law. It has a theory that in order for presidents to be able to exercise their responsibilities, they must have absolute power within this certain sphere that can’t be held to criminal account — that’s an unprecedented conclusion.”
~ Blake Emerson
