Comment on If presidential immunity is absolute..

Most of SCOTUS is not in favor of “broad immunity”, for exactly this scenario. They want to make sure that Trump is never held responsible for his actions while in office, and that every President after Trump(if he doesn’t declare himself President for life) is criminally liable for everything. Trump has even said that he’ll have Biden prosecuted if he wins.

If he declares himself president for life y’all better follow meal team six’s example and storm the capital. Otherwise the fuck are your guns for.

  Fucking right? We’re at risk of a president declaring himself Emperor of the United States and he’s not dead yet?
  
  We’re at the precipice of becoming Russia where “democracy” is nothing but a veneer, where the people don’t have a real choice in their leaders.

if he wins.

I’m surprised he could ever even indirectly acknowledge the chance that he could lose

  Ultra-right wing groups slowly taking over various branches of the government because roughly 30% of the population will always vote for them, no matter what.
