So here's a scenario ... The #MAGA majority ruled today that #Trump is immune for any "official acts" while in office, and that his "motives" may not be questioned.
If he's re-elected, what's to keep him from issuing an executive order requiring all travelling federal employees to stay at Trump hotels? The executive order is an official act, and his corrupt motive may not be questioned. (1/2)

Even worse ... #Trump has said he intends to be a dictator on Day One. Think of what he can do now, since his motives cannot be questioned.
Not only can he order DOJ to drop all federal charges against him, but he can order DOJ to arrest the state prosecutors in NY and GA.
Congress can question his motives through impeachment, but good luck with that.
The ban on questioning motives is just as bad, if not worse, than just the immunity ruling, in my opinion. (2/2)
