Trump's lawyers all but admitted they only care about delaying, and the supreme Court is gonna give him that delay by forcing the lower courts to determine what is or isn't official conduct.
That'll push the date for the trial out after the election. the fix is in and everyone has decided to let the election decide Trump's fate. And if you think for one second that they're going to be fair about those elections, you haven't been paying attention to the last 8 years.
The time to riot was yesterday
Supreme court hears arguments on how many licks it takes to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop. Gorsuch said "We are very serious people." Justice barrett, wearing pigtails and licking a lollipop excitedly responded "I skipped the line!"
I really wish they would allow cameras in the Supreme Court.
In this case, not having them might be a benefit. Trump and his legal team would just be playing to the cameras and using this as a campaign event.

The Supreme Court is different than the lower courts when it comes to allowing these sorts of shenanigans.
I don't believe what you described would happen, because first off Trump won't be in there, just a few of his lawyers.
And second, those lawyers, if they want to keep practicing after they're done with Trump, will make sure to behave themselves while they are presenting their case, because if the Supreme Court gets pissed at them, then no one will ever want to hire those lawyers again, under the worry that they'll never win another Supreme Court case.
