George Conway disputes Jake Tapper’s assertion that the Supreme Court decision gave Trump a “huge win.”

George Conway, a conservative lawyer, disputed CNN’s Jake Tapper’s assertion that former President Trump’s decision on Friday to have his criminal immunity case rejected by the US Supreme Court was a “huge win.”

According to Tapper, who was quoted by Mediaite, “the U.S. Supreme Court is giving Donald Trump something of a win today by rejecting the special counsel’s request to decide the issue of presidential immunity urgently.”

Conway, who described himself as “not particularly a fan of Trump,” said he wished to “issue a correction” to Tapper’s claim that the outcome was favorable. Conway agreed with Tapper when he remarked that it is more of a disagreement.

The only person who has written a Supreme Court brief that has won presidential immunity is Conway, who added, “I think it’s not a big deal because I don’t think it’s going to affect the schedule that much and I think it actually shows the likely, I think it shows the weakness of Donald Trump’s immunity claim.”

On Friday, the Supreme Court declined to hear a lawsuit deciding whether Trump might face legal consequences for his attempts to rig the 2020 election. According to Trump, he ought to be exempt from criminal prosecution while acting in his official capacity as president.

In an attempt to keep the trial on schedule, special counsel Jack Smith bypassed the appeals court and brought the matter directly before the Supreme Court.

Although the judges agreed to expedite the decision, they eventually agreed with the former president, who contended that the District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals ought to hear the issue first on January 9.

Conway stated that he would not be shocked “if we saw a decision from them in a matter of days” because the D.C. court has “acted really, really, really fast.”

“I don’t think there’s anything there to the claims that Trump has been making,” Conway stated, “so if I were on that panel and the presiding judge, I’d be writing the opinion now.” Conway projected that teams might begin trial preparations as early as March, and that the D.C. court would lift the stay by the third week of January. Conway stated that if the case went back to the Supreme Court, a ruling might be made by June.
