Comment on If presidential immunity is absolute..
Dexx1s@lemmy.world 7 months agoI’d be thinking more about how they’d plan to do it. Trump does have the Secret Service.
But good luck impeaching a man who can make his enemies disappear with a waive of his hand.
Friend, that’s why you just sign something in your office with the doors closed and not make it public.
Honestly, I didn’t even think enough about the whole thing enough to realize that the President could possibly get away with murder. Wouldn’t that make it an obvious ruling then? Could then appoint new judges to the Supreme Court. There would magically be a few openings all of a sudden after all. How is this ruling really something they’re actually considering?

Depends… Nixon was pardoned for water gate… precedent muddys water but I really hope a president isn’t a pseudo king… But this happend to Rome and Julia’s Caesar rose…

That’s a good point. President orders hit, pardons the co-conspirators, turns the reigns over to the VP who then pardons the President. The perfect crime.

Didn’t end so well for Julius Caesar.
