It makes perfect sense to an authoritarian. Some people are bound by the law but not protected by it. Other people--you know, the ones that matter--are protected by the law but not bound by it.
It is a perfect example of the actual function and application of law in a Fascist state, to keep the proles suppressed and to protect the elite.
Unless you believe all that guff about everyone being equal under the law, which your Supreme Court clearly does not.
