Does anyone really believe Trump's claim that a person is immune from prosecution if he/she committed those crimes while President? We do realize the precedent that this would set, right? Do people really want to claim that a President could literally murder someone while in office and the most... show more

Trump is not talking about just any crime Trump is talking about something specific that is not a crime When you sprinkled the word murder into this conversation, clearly, you are reviving an old statement to make it relevant to today. There is no evidence that Trump committed any crime

Ed Krassenstein2 years ago

That's not what he's arguing in court. He's arguing he has immunity from crimes because he was President.

Jacob R. Adkins2 years ago

The way I see it… executive privilege only goes so far. Clear evidence of crimes (for which there is ample evidence) should be prosecuted even if the person was president.

Thomas Paine Band2 years ago

How many US Presidents have been in prison in history? Think about it Ed. Thinking is painless. All of the charges against Trump are bogus. The truth is, you cheer on the authoritarian Biden Regime using the tactics of Hitler and Stalin.

To a degree, he’s right. If the Presidents commits crimes or misdemeanours in office, there’s a vehicle that can be utilised to hold him to account. That’s called Impeachment. That should be the only mechanism used to convict or punish a presidents actions

Ed Krassenstein2 years ago

So if I rob a bank, should my only punishment be that I lose my job? That's absurd. He's not above the rule of law. So a President could remain in office after losing, and then threaten to kill anyone who impeaches him? Is that what you are saying?

Glenn Vile2 years ago

Biden and Obama can be in big trouble if the precedent is set that once outside of office, they can be prosecuted.

RedWave Press2 years ago

You are taking this to the most extreme. Biden has committed the same crime as Trump by taking classified documents out of the White House. So should he be impeached and thrown in jail?

Rare 🇺🇸2 years ago

What law did Trump break? Do Presidents have Executive Privilege is probably the question that you are really asking, and that would be yes. You’re assuming he’s guilty l of what crime?

Keith 🏝 Aloha 🏝2 years ago

🏝️🏝️ well said and simply put so even MAGA and the GOP can understand the importance and danger of setting the precedent - no one is above the law 🏝️🏝️

This really just happened in the US Supreme Court. Trump's attorney John Sauer just essentially told SCOTUS Justice Sotomayor that Joe Biden could deem Trump as being a corrupt person, and then order the military to assassinate him. And it could be viewed as an official act that is immune from prosecution. Justice Sotomayor: "If the president decides that his rival is a corrupt person and he orders the military to assassinate him, is that within his official acts to which he could get immunity?" Trump's attorney: "It would depend on the hypothetical, but we can see that could well be an official act." Listen to the exchange below:

[Reporter]: "Would Palestinians have the right to return to Gaza if they left while the rebuilding was happening? [President Trump]: "It would be my hope that we could do something really nice, really good, where they wouldn't want to return. Why would they want to return?" "The place has been hell," the president later added. "They've experienced nothing but death and destruction."

A finance expert just detailed a GENIUS strategy President Trump might be working on to fix the National Debt using Gold. "Word on the streets is that President Trump's going to issue gold-backed treasuries..." "If Trump revalues gold to market value or even a higher price, which he can, then the Federal Reserve is required to print money... The US government has already done this before, and gold revaluation does not require congressional approval. So President Trump can do this, like literally, whenever he wants." "Word on the street is that it would be most logical to revalue gold at $15,000 a troy ounce. That would give the government $4 trillion just free and clear. That's $4 trillion less of U.S. Treasury bonds that they would need to sell, and Trump could use that money to fuel his initiatives. And he can even use some of that money to pay down the national debt, claiming that he delivered on his campaign promise." "So whatever Trump's going to do with gold, people are expecting him to go really big next year."

2007. Trump talks about bringing wounded soldiers from Iraq to Mar-a-Lago. Some people now say that Trump is "owned" or that attacking Iran proves he is a hypocrite. Trump was pressured very strongly to start a war with Iran during his first term. He didn't do it. Do people really believe that a 79 year old billionaire who was already President, a man who was shot in the head and believes that he may die any day now, is really owned by someone or something? If you do, ok, fair enough. I believe that he is trying to solve as many serious problems as possible while he is in office, while he is still alive, and that he wouldn't put American soldiers in harm's way if he didn't truly believe that it was the absolutely right thing to do.

"You called on President Trump to offer your client a pardon when he cannot pardon state crimes. Why did you do that?" REDDINGTON: "Trump would be able to reach out to one of his DOJ people, maybe talk to Tim Cruz and maybe bring some pressure." "But why do you want to encourage the president of the United States to pressure a local DA on a state prosecution?" REDDINGTON: "I don't care if Mahatma Gandhi came down and pressured him into doing something, because I do not believe that this is a righteous prosecution."

BREAKING: Trump, speaking from Mar-a-Lago, again says Presidents need full immunity. This is absurd. Trump essentially is saying that a President could murder his opponent, shut down the election to hold onto office, refuse to leave the White House and threaten anyone who challenges him with murder, yet never be charged with a crime. Specifically he said: “If a president doesn’t have full immunity, you really don’t have a president. Because nobody who is serving in that office will have the courage to make, in many cases what would be the right decision, or it could be the wrong decisions. It could in some cases be the wrong decision.” Does anyone really think the SCOTUS will agree with this assessment?

The January 6th Insurrection Hoax is more evil and sinister than you first thought. Joe Rogan “If the FBI was on that lawn, I would hope what they would be doing is informing people entering into this building is a felony. I wouldn’t hope that they would be trying to set people up.” John Kiriakou “And from a civil society. Do we want to set people up to go to prison? Do we want to wreck families and wreck people’s lives. Why would we want to do that?”

During Trump's first term Nicolle Wallace regularly claimed that he was unfit for office. Wallace even wanted to hook up Trump's people to a polygraph and ask them if he was fit for office. During Biden's Presidency she claimed that videos showing Biden's decline were "cheap fakes." They do this and then claim they have a right to be in The White House.

The Supreme Court, during the course of the election cycle, made the decision that the president would be immune from any of his conduct while in office. So we went into the election with this individual, Donald Trump, knowing that he would essentially be immune from any consequence for misbehavior while in office."

Question: He's the US President with an enormous political following. People bought Trump Coin because of him, right? Is that not taking advantage of the office? Stephen Moore “Look, this was Something that people wanted to believe in these coins. I think the president, in good faith, really believed this would be a good investment. And it turned out not to be one.” Full back and forth here:

I really want to know how anyone can still think that Trump should be anywhere near the White House ever again after this. Jenna Ellis told prosecutors in Georgia, during a proffer, that Dan Scavino told her: "The boss is not going to leave [The White House] under any circumstances. We are just going to stay in power.” Can someone explain to me why this is an attribute that someone would want in a president of the United States? And before you claim that Jenna Ellis was lying, please note that lying to prosecutors during a proffer like this, can result in up to five years in prison.

Francis Fukuyama: "America under Trump has been engaged in such a determined process of self-harm that China does not really need to do anything other than sit back and watch it unfold. Trump predicted that China would not attack Taiwan while he was the president. And he may be right about this. He does not want to get in the way of a declining United States."

Tucker Carlson is a national security threat. Anyone running for President in 2028 should really stop associating with Tucker Carlson if they want to be President. Can we all agree on that? I wonder what President Trump would think about this clip. Has he seen it? Doubt it!
