His lawyers argue that the records, signed during his presidency in 2017, should be considered official actions, now protected by the Supreme Court’s ruling on presidential immunity. Previously, a judge ruled that Trump failed to prove his actions were official presidential duties. The Supreme Court decision grants immunity for…
