It only exists when observed by the right people.
Ask not what the president can do, ask what the president did to me.

Amongst the greatest of ridiculous things a president could ask for. The generation that had to experience Nixon is supporting this joke.
Nixon still had Congressional support until shortly before articles of impeachment were sent to the House floor (late July 1974, and never voted on) which was 3 years after the Pentagon Papers were first published (June 1971). He was only forced to resign AFTER the media started covering the scandal and what it actually meant in depth and Congress was having to actually start answering questions from constituents.
History.com has a decent timeline of the major events to reference.
There’s a reason propaganda-based “news” organizations like Fox News were created after Nixon, and regulations like the Fairness Doctrine were removed under Reagan. It was so they could control the media commentary and insert their own propaganda under the guise of impartial “news” services.
Organizations prior obviously had biases, but national news organizations were generally pretty balanced, nothing like many modern day organizations despite their clear lies about being balanced.
They have been laying the groundwork for this for decades, and now they are ready to collect.
Not all of us
I hope he gets full immunity and proves POTUS can do whatever they want and then Biden publicly executes Trump. That shit would be fucking hilarious.
Ah, but if a president can do whatever they want without being held legally responsible, then they can punish someone regardless of whether or not they’re legally responsible for what they did.
That comes with a fun loophole - if the courts decide that presidents are immune to all legal repercussions, then Biden can just illegally arrest Trump and throw him in prison for no reason, and suffer no legal repercussions for it.
I don’t think Biden doesn’t take Trump as seriously as he says he does.
He fucking better
“only in these circumstances”
Wasn’t that close to the wording in the Gore V Bush case
these justice are too corrupt to be trusted. Could more justices be added?
Could and should. We should have 13 justices at the point (13 circuit courts)
The most pathetic example of homo sapiens alive today
I misread this as “athletic” and thought, you were quoting him.
I like “You can’t impeach the President without them first having been charged with a crime!” next to “You have to impeach and convict the president before you can charge them with a crime!”.
These two incompatible legal arguments were both used by Trump’s lawyers at one point.
Is he really claiming that? I thought your constitution would have something to stop that? The magna carta set out that a king wasn’t above the law 800 years ago.
Laws are for chumps, not for Trumps. Or so the ex-President is officially arguing. “A president has to have immunity, otherwise you just have a ceremonial president.”
Schroedingers President.
