    "This video explains the US Supreme Court's decision on presidential
    immunity in Trump v United States and gives an outsider's perspective -
    that of an Australian constitutional lawyer - on it. The case concerned whether the then former President was immune from prosecution upon an indictment alleging he was engaged in a conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election and obstruct the official certification proceedings on January
    6, 2021.

    The video explains the different types of immunity (absolute and
    presumptive) and the scope of the different categories of executive
    power that give rise to the immunity. It considers the factors applied
    or excluded by the Supreme Court in determining the scope of
    presidential power, such as 'improper purpose' and a breach of a
    generally applicable criminal law.

    It discusses the reasons why the majority of the Supreme Court chose to
    reach its conclusions and how there might be better ways to achieve
    outcomes consistent with the rule of law and the requirements of the US Constitution."
