    [They] only have immunity for official acts

    “Only”. This is exactly why they issued such a nebulous decision, so people like you will say, “Look! It’s not actually unlimited!” The only act they give any specific answer for is the president’s right to prosecute anyone they want without justification, which they say is a-ok. Everything else they sent back to the district courts, not to “shove it up his ass”, but because they are the “court of final review and not first view”. In other words, they’ll deem it all “official acts” later, when (they hope) Trump is in office and this pony show won’t matter anymore.
