MODERATORS
I'm not saying that he should be doing it or that it makes sense. But no, it is very clear from the decision that he would be immune. He has absolute immunity for core powers and presumed immunity for all official acts, which the court left very vague, but didn't deny would include assassinating political opponents. The dissenting opinion made it very clear that this was the case.
With that said, in some way you are right. If Biden did it, it would be appealed and the SC would rule that in this specific case he isn't immune, whereas if Trump did the same, it would be appealed and they would rule that he is immune. Because the SC is corrupt and doesn't care about precedent.
The decision they made wasn't a precedent, they allowed it as a case-by-case basis. So Biden wouldn't be able to point to Trump and say "he did it! So it's legal!".
Just to add some more fun quotes:
