So, is this final, or can Trump file yet another appeal of this ruling, causing another round of litigation and hearings and a several month wait for yet another SCOTUS ruling, on this ruling?

Rinse and repeat.

Ha ha ha - even the Trump SCOTUS picks are in on the plan. Let Trump get railed by the law all day long as a private citizen but not for his bullshit as POTUS. They’re trying to make Trump the private citizen the sacrificial lamb for Trump the POTUS.

The legal language is, “he’s toast”. That SOB has got to be physically ill over this. No longer can he escape depositions and have a friendly court protect him. This tells me he Sup Ct was hedging its bets on the election when they blocked these subpoenas months ago.

One line.
No comments or dissents.
