Did the SC just rule that Trump has sweeping immunity against prosecution for what he supposedly did during his reign?

Anyone have details or an understanding?

He has full immunity for anything done in an obvious official capacity as President. He has immunity for things done that are related to his official capacity, but things that are quasi-official or outside the official scope of his duties, could be challenged and ruled not immune.

He has no immunity for things done privately and outside the scope of his duties.

As I read it, it's a pretty big win for him.

Does this affect, in any way, the things they've already convicted him of?

It’s would be the upcoming electors case.

The BS convictions had to do with the hush money to that porn thing.
