Trumps "immunity" defence is punctured by the first question

[forkup]

Trumps lawyers are claiming he was acting within the duties of Presidential Powers

Trump banging a Porn Star and paying for her silence with business funds is not a Presidential act

Taking Top Secret documents and refusing to return them when you are no longer President is not a Presidential act

Elections have been Constitutionally awarded to States to administer. It is not up to a President to interfere with them or substitute fake electors.

I don’t know…can a sitting President send a mob to attack the Capitol and claim it was his job?

His lawyers are claiming exactly that. But I'm the joke for pointing out it's ridiculous lol.

Why do you wonder? For what impeachable Biden offenses do you have evidence?

I'm not talking impeachments. I'm asking why anyone would support Biden.

The really interesting bit is if Trump would actually order the killing if he becomes president of his political rival.

I have no doubt that someone like Backagain would basically state "yup, sounds reasonable."

Lord knows, Republicans have justified behavior from Trump that they would consider criminal by anybody else.

Take out the name Trump and state what he has actually done, and ask them to judge if it's criminal. They will turn themselves in pretzels Cirque Du Soleil couldn't match to avoid engaging the premise.

Look at the outrage they had over Hillary having classified information on her server

Lock her up

Judge Florence Pan started off her questioning of Trump lawyer John Sauer by offering a novel scenario.

“Could a president who ordered SEAL Team Six to assassinate a political rival and was not impeached, could he be subjected to criminal prosecution?” Pan asked.

After some back and forth, Sauer said, “Qualified yes, if he’s impeached and convicted first.”

Trump doubles down after DC hearing: ‘Most people agree that we’re entitled to immunity’ – as it happened

If the judges rule in favor of Trump, it could lead to the dropping of the criminal charges brought by special counsel Jack Smith

This is not how democracies run. It is how imperial dictators run things. The US fought against this but perhaps the founders had not considered a trump when forming the constitution.

It's spelled "DEFENSE" you Commie slime-ball fuck

Neither is claiming a VP can unilaterally decide to ignore the certified election result.

Wearing. I happen to agree with Pence’s decision not to what was asked of him. But your analogy is falsely based. If the election had indeed been stolen, kit would have been within the outer boundaries of the President’s duties to see to it that the theft effort failed. No similar argument can be made about committing murder if a political opponent.

Ignore court rulings in favor of your own opinion.

Huh? Wtf does that even mean?

And asking your supporters to pressure Congress to not certify.

Perfectly legal. This is America, fuckchop.

(Note I'm purposefully going with the most benign explanation of what he asked them to do.)

WHO cares? It’s legal.

Akin to a simple expression of his duty to safeguard the election.

Akin to a sentence but not quite knowing how to put those word things together.

Yet that's what his lawyers claim he did, to tie it "within the outer boundaries of Presidential Power."

No. What he did was within in the boundaries. Murder isn’t.

There's a reason for that bolded bit.

Yeah I know. That’s why I used it. It comes from the case law, dopey.

Meaning he claims his claims should be given the widest possible benefit of doubt when determining what's in the scope of the President's powers.

Of course he contends that his motivations shouldn’t be second guessed by mental pygmies like you.

But hey I'm glad you consider the argument as a "Facile faux analysis." It's kind of the point I'm making.

You point is to make faux facile analyses? Good thing. Because that’s all you’ve accomplished.

Seems to me the "joke's" on you.

No fuckchop. You are the joke.

That didn’t happen. So your fake question is meaningless.

Sadly, it did happen

An American who joined a terrorist organization that flew jetliners full of passengers in to symbols of Western Power? Jetliners and buildings filled with innocent people from all over the world! Give Obama a medal for that grease spot!

American citizens have the right to due process. There is no carve out for people who join terrorists.

 

[Godboy]

He AIN'T gonna have no DOJ Skipp.
He's gonna have a stainless steel sink that's built into the top of his toilet and a big, black cellmate named Rosie.

Not if he wins the election, and it sure as fuck looks like he will. Trump will simply pardon himself, but Obama cant pardon HIMSELF anymore.

If being "micro managed" by the government means I don't have to live in a country that has at it's head an autocrat, sure.

I can vote a guy out of office if I don't like him in a Democracy. If, however, a leader is free from the restriction of the law, it would only take one of them being sufficiently ruthless to impose its will, to destroy that choice.

That's the logical end-result of the absolute presidential immunity claim. Note I don't say Trump is that guy. I suspect he would be but I'm not a fortune teller. What I do know is that sooner or later someone will be that guy, (or woman). At that point it'll be to late.

You're stupid

Because the alternative is such a pile of shit.

Again, if Obama was guilty of a crime…take him to a Grand Jury and indict him

Obama is not above the law and neither is Trump

Obama murdered doctors. He has Presidential immunity. So does Trump.

Another silly cult fantasy

 

[Care4all]

Trump got 11,000,000 more votes in 2020 than in 2016
Biden got 81,000,000 votes in 2020

Biden got 30,000,000 more votes than typically vote in a presidential election due to mail-in election fraud. QED

Another silly cult fantasy

Cut the bullshit the only political cult in America is the democrat party.

Reader's View: Democratic Party reminiscent of a cult

Unfortunately, there are many followers of anything the Democrats propose, and they trust they are doing the best for the country.
