"If a President does not have Immunity, the Opposing Party, during his/her term in Office, can extort and blackmail the President by saying that, 'if you don’t give us everything we want, we will Indict you for things you did while in Office,' even if everything done was totally Legal and Appropriate," Trump posted on Truth Social.
Leave it to Donnie to misrepresent what the ruling means. Presidents still enjoy lots of immunity, especially where it pertains to their "color of office" duties. They just don't have total immunity from anything and everything, especially where it doesn't pertain to their duties. We do not have monarchs or dictators.
So no, you can't just shoot someone on Fifth Ave and declare Presidential Immunity to avoid justice, and you can't just steal government secrets to use as business leverage, and you can't make phone calls to heads of states to "find votes," and you can't incite an insurrection and claim plausible deniability.
Eat shit. I hope you get no sleep because of these rulings.
Yeah but what if the person on fifth Avenue was literally holding the original constitution and threatening to tear it in half? Would presidential immunity apply then?
Hear me out: what if the person had a pussy and you wanted to grab it?
According to their logic, it is ok if you are famous. Clearly we should base our jurisprudence on fame then. /s
In that case they let you do it because you’re famous
Fortunately OR unfortunately
if the person on fifth Avenue was literally holding the original constitution and threatening to tear it in half?
That would be him committing be suicide then
