If presidents were immune, Nixon would not have needed a pardon.
I've heard that notion posed several times. IANAL, but just because Ford and Nixon both thought he needed a pardon does not necessarily mean that he actually needed a pardon. Those are two different things; it is possible that Ford and Nixon were both wrong on the necessity. (Edit: Of note, I don't think they were wrong, but I'm also not a federal judge, so what I think doesn't matter, in the same way as what Ford and Nixon thought didn't matter.)
Judges heard from a lawyer for Donald J. Trump who argued that a president could face criminal charges only if impeached and convicted first, even if the case involved the assassination of a political rival.
So Trump's lawyer is saying its totally cool and legal for Biden to get a marine with a sniper rifle to pop Trump's head, right? Right?
All this is moot.
The supreme court will rule in his favour. 100% guaranteed.
If they do than Biden can do the unthinkable. These folks think the Dems are just gonna hand them their dictatorship by transferring power. That will never happen
Dems are acting helpless to resist the republicans. They won't do a thing. They'll stick to the rule of law even though the judges are corrupt.
What I mean is the only move rule of law can make at this point only ensures that either justice is done or that Biden can use the authority to make the necessary changes
