What I do not understand is how the Supreme Court ruling on immunity on "official" acts while in office changes the dynamic of the conviction of falsifying business records. How can this be, in any way, an "official action"?

It isn’t, but Trump’s legal team will use it as another delaying tactic anyway. The longer they can delay sentencing the better for them. They don’t want Trump in an orange prison uniform, or even under house arrest with an ankle tag, during the main part of the election campaign. If they can delay sentencing until after the election by any means, they will.

Of course the admissibility of evidence in the course of his official duties is being questioned following the Supreme Court judgement - so it’s far from a mere stalling tactic if some of the evidence used to convict doesn’t meet the appropriate threshold since he is inevitably going to appeal.

Has the guy ever actually managed to send a nice happy message on any holiday or special day without making it all about him?

Has donny been shot? Conflicting reports

Looked like there was blood above his right ear, and it certainly sounded like some sort of gunshots.

If he wins will he still be pro 2nd ammendment?

Defo blood as he got up and gestured with his fist to the crowd and said "fight".

The picture I've seen shows Trump with a small section of ear missing.

Update:
Attacker fired shots from the roof of a van.

Attacker is dead, shot by a Secret Service agent.

He basically missed (despite multiple shots) but killed an audience member.

They're saying Trump got hit by glass fragments, not a bullet. One audience member dead. Shooter also dead.

I can’t stand Trump but this is not the way to deal with him or his type. To be honest this is likely to only have galvanised his supporters’ love for him.

Violence in politics (as per anywhere) is completely wrong. Take him down intellectually, not with a stupid bullet.

Thankfully he seems to be only slightly injured.

Well the shooter has certainly helped Trump in his campaign, and given him some fantastic photos and future PR, and talking points.

You only need to look at what happened to Reagan’s ratings after he was shot.

Should Biden be charged with inciting violence?

If it was the other way around you know Trump would’ve been.
