The immunity case in Donald J. Trump v. United States will center on one simple sentence: “whether and if so to what extent does a former President enjoy presidential immunity from criminal prosecution for conduct alleged to involve official acts during his tenure in office.”

the Circuit Court concluded that because the indictment charges at hand involved an alleged attempt to prevent the transition of presidential power, they raise “a profound Article II interest in the enforcement of federal criminal laws,” and thus a former President should not be immune to prosecution for these actions. Id. at *46.

The DC circuit already determined that the allegation of this being "official" are bullshit. Him saying they are doesn't make it so.
