The court found that Trump is entitled to immunity from prosecution for "official" acts, but not "unofficial" ones, and ordered lower courts to decide which acts are which.

        Declare him to be a Clear and Present Danger to the Union. Now it’s an official act to safeguard against the danger. So take official action, then wait and see if anybody prosecutes after the fact to prove it wasn’t an official act.

        Well we used to straight up kill traitors instead of letting them off and letting them try running for an office that they once tried to steal multiple times through various nefarious ways.

        Killing a traitor sure sounds like an official act.

        It would be up to a special prosecutor and the lower courts to decide it isn’t.

        That’s the problem with this ruling. It creates the presumption of immunity unless proven otherwise.

      Capture the man and exile him to an island. Start a reality show where contestants are gradually moved onto the island with him one by one. He will establish a new form of governance and be given the keys to the next presidency as a reward for a certain benchmark of success in creating a new functional democracy. Lol
