Read the Supreme Court’s Ruling on Immunity
The court rules that former presidents have absolute immunity for core constitutional powers, and are also entitled to at least a presumption of immunity for official acts.www.nytimes.com
As with most of the Trump legal issues, the World Wide Web and sites like USMB have comments and narratives that stray from what is fact, what is truthful. It's human nature to do what people have been doing with these contentious issues. Mr. Trump must love the attention. He will certainly get more than a few paragraphs in future history books.
But let some of us here read the actual ruling, and use that for discussion, conversation, arguments.

OK Dante, should Citizen Biden be tried for manslaughter for the deaths of the 13 Marines killed during the Afghanistan withdrawal? Why or Why not?
"legitimate?"They have said Trump going to the Justice Department and asking them to look into replacing the electors is legitimate.

really?
Where?
(2)(i) page 5
The link to the decisions has no pay wall.
"They have said Trump going to the Justice Department and asking them to look into replacing the electors is legitimate." your wording
"(i) The indictment alleges that as part of their conspiracy to overturn the legitimate results of the 2020 presidential election, Trump and his co -conspirators attempted to leverage the Justice Department's power and authority to convince certain States to replace their legitimate electors with Trump's fraudulent slates of electors."
"Because the President cannot be prosecuted for conduct within his exclusive constitutional authority, Trump is absolutely immune from prosecution for the alleged conduct involving his discussions with Justice Department officials." - the exact wording
I guess I'm thinking it's much more nuanced than your portrayal. The Justice Dept was not asked to replace electors. They were asked (reads the indictment) to try and convince certain states to do Trump's bidding. Justice had no power to actually interfere. They were consulted, and that is protected. The President could ask advice about shooting somebody on 5th Ave in NYC.
Well the dissents may get you a free cup of coffee somewhere, but that's about all they're good for.I am interested in the dissents, because I have long been for a strong Executive branch more than a strong Legislative branch.
I don't see it that way. I'm a bit disappointed in the alarmist rhetoric coming straight out of the gate regarding the decision. But I get it.What's happened is they're looking into whether Trump can be prosecuted under the guise of "official" and "unofficial" business. Because they've said "official" presidential business means he cannot be prosecuted ever.
He can decide which cases appear or don't appear in court. That is a part of the president's job. He can talk to the Justice Department, they don't have to do what he says, but he can replace those who don't do what he says.
Which means he can put in someone who says they'll do what they're told too.
So, I'm assuming that we kind of agree with what the Supreme Court has said.
I see what I call alarmist screeches in the same way I see the imbecilic joy and delight of those who believe things favor Trump and are unaware of how this affects causes they believe they support. I favor a strong executive. But this is a momentous decision that requires time to digest, reflection...What's happened is they're looking into whether Trump can be prosecuted under the guise of "official" and "unofficial" business.

The SCOTUS punted that. This corrupt court loves saying "it's up to the lower courts", then accepting challenges to their rulings.Because like the ruling says, it's about "official" and "unofficial duties".
How do you separate them? When is something official, and when isn't it?
