The former president has made clear once again that he believes the office should have absolute power
The D.C. Federal Court of Appeals is expected to hand down a decision on Donald Trump’s claim to “absolute” presidential immunity any day now, and the former president is upping his public pressure campaign for a favorable decision.
Early Thursday morning, Trump took to Truth Social to rant about the exemption he believes a president — or former president — should have from prosecution over crimes committed while in office. “EVEN EVENTS THAT ‘CROSS THE LINE’ MUST FALL UNDER TOTAL IMMUNITY, OR IT WILL BE YEARS OF TRAUMA TRYING TO DETERMINE GOOD FROM BAD,” Trump wrote.
…
The former president argued that without total blanket immunity, the chief executive would be stripped of the “authority and decisiveness” necessary to carry out their duties in office. “Sometimes you just have to live with ‘great but slightly imperfect,’” he wrote in the all-caps post.
So… Biden has immunity to do whatever he sees fit regarding the punishment befitting a traitor to America?
FUCK YEAH!
I doubt Biden has the will to use unbriddled power, even if he had the license to do it.
I think we all know that and just love our fantasies.
My fantasy is that no man will ever have unfettered power in this country. I know. I’m a dreamer.
But what about me tho? I could do some funky things with unlimited power: intracontinental, high-speed trains; federal broadband Gigabit internet; purge day; allocation of public school funds; Thunderdome!
Intracontinental high-speed thunderdome
Of course not, but that’s not the point.
Getting the hypnotized Trump cultists to think about the implications for even a second is helpful.
Moreso, getting the apathetic non-voters off their asses would be a significant improvement.
