What does it mean?

I mean, this is a court that's originalist, and they're trying to interpret all the time what the words of a statute or the words of a constitution mean.

I'll just note that when I predicted that, because whenever there's a big opinion that he's in in the center, he writes it.

He wrote the you know, the Supreme Court opinion giving President Trump limited presidential authority to be.

let's say, to be, I'm trying to think of the right word, not to be prosecuted for criminal acts committed in office.

He wrote that one.

He's written all the very, very big opinions.

Well, I think what the justices try to do is write as narrow an opinion as they possibly can.
