Team Trump v/s Everyone

[GannonFan]

While he's not entirely wrong about immunity, he just lacks the mental capacity to fully understand the nuances and complexities of what immunity should cover (actions directly related to the job of being President) and what it shouldn't cover (personal malfeasance). Sure, there's an argument to be made for how these get handled while a President is in office, but I'm pretty sure this isn't the guy who's the best person to be making that argument.

Page 40-41 of the ruling.

“At bottom, former President Trump’s stance would collapse our system of separated powers by placing the President beyond the reach of all three Branches. Presidential immunity against federal indictment would mean that, as to the President, the Congress could not legislate, the Executive could not prosecute and the Judiciary could not review. We cannot accept that the office of the Presidency places its former occupants above the law for all time thereafter. Careful evaluation of these concerns leads us to conclude that there is no functional justification for immunizing former Presidents from federal prosecution in general or for immunizing former President Trump from the specific charges in the Indictment. In so holding, we act, “not in derogation of the separation of powers, but to maintain their proper balance.”

Unless those actions while President are illegal?

That's the rub - we need litigation in many cases to determine legality. What if someone was adamant that sending arms to Ukraine under an executive order was illegal? They could sue for that. What if a President issues an executive order to do something at the border? Someone who's convinced that's illegal could sue the President directly for that. And drawing the line between the office and the individual holding that office isn't necessarily clear cut all the time in every instance. Like I said, Trump, with his limited mental capability and his uncontrolled ego, isn't really the best person to be guiding or pushing these questions of constitutional law.

trump's claims of immunity have always been BS. Inflaming the crowd that stormed the Capitol on January 6, arranging for slates of fraudulent electors, and attempting to bully state officials into finding votes/not certifying results were the acts of a presidential candidate not a President. His obstructing the return of classified documents had nothing to do with his duties as President.

Joey Bobo Biden takes a powder on Super Bowl interview once again. If this pathetic criminal idiot of a President had anything to say to the American people he would jump at the opportunity… Now Trump is trying to muscle in for a SB interview but the 4Th estate will never allow it
