Why the Supreme Court may take a while still with its Trump immunity decision

By Jordan Rubin

The Supreme Court's next opinion day is Thursday. But for multiple unsatisfying reasons, we shouldn't expect Donald Trump's immunity ruling just yet.

Making the ruling's absence more frustrating is the observation by Norman Eisen and Michael Podhorzer for MSNBC Daily that the court decided to keep Trump on the presidential ballot 25 days after the oral arguments in that case, while more time than that has elapsed since the April 25 hearing in the immunity appeal.

The reasons for this difference in treatment aren't good, but there are apparent reasons that I'll explain.

This is a preview of Jordan Rubin's latest article. Read the full column here.
