They didn’t really, though. They gave him immunity from being prosecuted for what he does as president…but that doesn’t mean everything he does is legal. His orders can still be struck down in court (or at least they should be).
The problem right now, is the fact that he is just ignoring the court’s orders. That is still illegal, even if he may not necessarily be prosecuted for it later. We’ll see what happens though. At some point the law needs to either hold up against him, or it means nothing, and the Constitution itself is no longer valid.
That is a very good point.
