It shall be unlawful for [the President] to request, directly or indirectly, any officer or employee of the Internal Revenue Service to conduct or terminate an audit or other investigation of any particular taxpayer with respect to the tax liability of such taxpayer.
[…]
Any [president] who willfully violates [this] shall be punished upon conviction by a fine in any amount not exceeding $5,000, or imprisonment of not more than 5 years, or both, together with the costs of prosecution.
So it might have cost him $5,000 to do it if he didn’t already have total immunity to do whatever the hell he wants?

Response for the two options this may be.
Poe Principle: Don’t do this. Don’t give them ideas, because they’ll take your idea and run with it. The shitheads on the other side don’t just believe in this crap, but they WANT to believe in this crap, because they are shitheads.
True Believer: Your god is a hateful god and not the God of Christianity. Buzz off now.
Your bronze age myths are not relevant to governance.
Good. None of the people attending this school are good for the world.
There are like 79 Nobel prize winning alumni, with 11 of those being peace prizes. Something tells me that “none” is a pretty low estimate for “good for the world”.
Ah, there’s another angle on why Trump has decided to focus so much ire on Harvard. Trump is obsessed with winning a Nobel Peace Prize, since Obama got one he wants to have one too.
One of the 8 US presidents who went to Harvard. Including John Adams, both Quincy and senior, to give you an idea of just how long Harvard has been around.
While I agree that Harvard is important/historically relevant, Kissenger has a Nobel peace prize so I consider it kinda irrelevant
Yeah fuck education, make everyone as dumb as us. We ain’t don’t need to smarts out there.

Sorry I speak facts from verifiable sources. I don’t regurgitate fiction books
“Verifiable sources”like…?
Seriously?
Ya because we need more Zuckerburgs right?
The common person isn’t going to Harvard. It’s rich kids who grow up to be capitalists. Fuck rich people.
I get the sentiment, but you’re still wrong
Could be. But I am fresh out of sympathy for these people
Cool. So be quiet about it. Starting to lose sympathy for you.
Nah. I’ll say what I want.
Yeah, well expect fewer open doors.
Harvard offers need-based financial aid to approximately 55% of its undergraduate students, covering 100% of demonstrated financial need. Families with incomes below $100,000 are not expected to contribute to their child’s education. In 2022, families with incomes of $75,000 or less did not pay anything toward the cost of education.
(Sorry if this gets posted multiple times, something went weird with my reply)
They’re coming for Harvard because an elite school is an easy target for public opinion. They really want to oversee what is taught in all American universities.

Why do you feel that way with your feelings?
Harvard produces capitalist asswipes like Zuckerberg who destroy the world searching for endless profits.
They also produce world class doctors, researchers and a number of other professionals…
Did you get a rejection letter?
It sounds as if you’re saying Harvard only produces capitalist apologists. If so, do you know Stephen Marglin? Richard Levins? Paul Farmer? Michael Herzfeld? Terry Eagleton?
Regardless, it’s tempting to dismiss elite academic institutions. They have time and again served the interests of elites. However, they have also been the place where radical and critical thought has burgeoned. Academia holds in its hands the tools to build our prison as well as tools that we can choose to use to escape from that prison.
