A president shouldn't have free speech rights.....

[progressive hunter]

How in hell could a sitting president run for reelection if his free speech was muzzled?
Come on people, you're better than this.

no they arent,,

The government doesnt have free speech. The bill of rights is for the citizens.

The U.S. President is a citizen.

 

[progressive hunter]

They dont have free speech in their official capacity. They cant just say whatever they want like we can.
There are laws and supreme court rulings to back that up.

do you have a list of things they can or cant say??

or is it only after you get butthurt about something??

 

[progressive hunter]

The government isnt a human.

the government is an institution not a human,,

and the 1st A isnt about free speech,, its about the government fucking off,,

Being elected president doesn't negate your right to free speech. It's not called The Selective Bill of Rights.

Except that holding office does this in many, many, many cases.

As GG already pointed out, joining the military does this.

The President is.

So are congressmen. When they are acting in their official capacity, they are the government.
The first amendment protects an individual from having their right to speech oppressed by the government. It doesnt protect the govt from itself.

enlisting in the military is nothing like being elected to office,,

Quote the part of the first Amendment saying a President doesn’t get the right to free speech.

I’ll wait…..

The first is about oppression from the government. How does the govt oppress itself?

So you have nothing.

Got it.

 

[BS Filter]

Nah, she was unhappy with the outcome, but her protests were a mere blip on the radar. She conceded the election within 48 hours.

She blamed the Russians. Fact.
