Let Trump Talk - Let Him Walk

As the Supreme Court continues to delay releasing its opinion in Trump vs. United States, pundits, journalists, and politicians are increasingly apprehensive about what the future may hold as the summer campaign season escalates. The rarity of Supreme Court sessions extending into July makes the delay in this high-stakes immunity case increasingly perplexing.

For former President Trump, the delay, in this case, might offer short-term fundraising benefits—his mug shot alone generated millions, and incarceration following his sentencing on July 11th could potentially yield even more. However, the maxim "justice delayed is justice denied" remains profoundly relevant as political eyes remained focused on the high court.

This case should be a simple one to decide. Legal intricacies aside, at its core, this case is about the fundamental right to free speech guaranteed by the First Amendment. Former President Trump, like any citizen, deserves the right to express his beliefs without fear of retribution or censorship. In our democratic society, the right to free speech is the bedrock to our freedom. Just as every American is free to express their thoughts and opinions, so too should a sitting or former president.

Yet, lawyers continue to confuse and complicate the basic and fundamental issues the way only lawyers can. Instead of trying to find simple solutions, they overcomplicate things to accommodate a political bias and end up arguing to the point where it is absurd – and ordinary Americans are disgusted.

Despite what many in the media and power want us to believe, it is essential to understand that this case is about much more than revenge against former President Trump. This case is about the preservation of core freedoms that belong to everyone regardless of political affiliation. The Biden Administration and liberal prosecutors are attempting to criminalize dissenting thoughts and abusing the legal system to gain political power. It is a dangerous precedent to set, one that undermines the very foundation of our republic.
