I don't know what the actual consequences of this will be.
I've found the arguments I've seen on why this is actually good, to be extremely problematic.
A top comment on r/conservative I saw was basically "the president shouldn't be punished for doing his job". Counterpoint, if you hire a janitor to clean a building, and he cleans it with some toxic formula that makes the building uninhabitable, he should not get a free pass on that because "he was just doing his job". I am a firm believer that no job should hold immunity. Anyone can do wrong in their job and anyone should be held accountable for it.
In a response to Sotomayor saying that the president could kill their political opponents, I saw a number of other comments elsewhere that suggested that "not every order would have to be followed". Which is insane to me, you really have to think that through. These people effectively are okay with this ruling on the basis that they have faith that it won't be abused.
A lot of comments are propping up the "official acts" portion.
We shouldn't be blindly giving the president more power.
