Ridiculous to consider from the get-go. No respect left for Supreme Court.
Respect only exists if it goes both ways...you need to have it before you get it.
Those so-called justices don't respect the Constitution, the integrity of the legal system or the American people.
They deserve contempt, but not respect.
💙💙💙💙💙
I have issues with SCOTUS, but why does this anger you? No one ever claimed the president could murder someone and have immunity.
Dirty court to decide if the American Revolution against a King was worth the effort.
Nicely put.
Touché
No one Should have immunity if Committed a Crime.😂
Starting with Hillary, Obama, Bush..etc
That's beyond stupid...of course there has to be presidential immunity...duh there is a process for punishment. It's called impeachment and trial first.
Don't forget sleepy Joe with his classified documents he willfully retained and used for his book.
no crimes here
@@sybergato that's right Nobody should have Immunity Period no matter who they are.
The idea that SCTUS decided to hear this argument is wild.
No it isn't. If the cou9rt refuesd to hear it the corrupt lower court decision would stand. They HAD to hear it.
To protect the president from criminal acts. Repuke SCOTUS threw a buoy to Satan Dufus. No one is above the law, judge Alito thinks otherwise. Satan Dufus tried to get Obama assassinated 6/23 by cult. Loser new home is prison.
They’re installing a president. Our only hope is in getting him off the ballot.
That’s because you don’t understand the argument. That’s your fault.
No one ever needs absolute ammunity, president, Judge, politician or average citizens.
*immunity (just sayin’
When you fear integrity and accountability, you are no longer the good guys.
💙💙💙💙agreed
Lock him up. Throw away the key.
😂😂 No unlikely won't happen .....the facts are on his side
@@spider-man910
All the evidence sides agains the clown. And almost 90 charges, under four different indictments.
Do you accept the scientific theory of evolution, or do you deny the evidence?
@@moonshoes11😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 thanks for the laugh
This is HORRIFYING. Only in MAGA land. Impeach Clarence Thomas. His wife supported Donald’s coup.
Thank you💙💙💙💙💙
Protest
😂😂😂 thanks for the laugh
Impeach ALL THESE TRUMP ASS KISSING REPUBLICAN SUPREME COURT JUSTICES
This is the public's supreme waste of time! TIRED ALREADY!
Looks like president Biden should step up!
I wonder the questions the Supreme Court would have asked if the President were to send seal team against the Supreme Court?
@@ronaldlindeman6136you should post that as a comment-not reply
it’s an awesome point💙💙💙💙
You mean step down!
Innocent people don't go running to the Supreme Court begging for immunity. Remember that come November 2024.
We are literally living a real life episode of the Twilight Zone.
True
sauer should be disbarred
Who has the most annoying vocalization Dean Sauer or Ben Shapiro.
It’s a tie.
Why not ask the supreme court if the President ordered the execution of a federal judge as part of an official act, are they OK with it?
Great question.
Democracy is in danger
How does the president have the power to decide, on his own, anyone is corrupt ... is the higest court in the land really acking that question.
Clearly, NO crime committed
What will be the Verdict @Diane
Supreme Court ⚖️
Well if so Baiden cud use military to estay en power
Sounds familiar.
The Supreme Court has in the past given in a limited verdict. All they really need to do is rule about whether or not running for office is a Presidential act.
Since running for office is done when you are not in office, then the answer is no.
Leave everything else for a later date, and as it comes up.
January 6th, Donald Trump was still President. Running for President while President is an official act!
Wouldn't it be simplest for Pres. Biden to have Trump bumped off the moment the SC decides it's OK?
the irony
No president in history has asked for this before.
What does that tell you?
What a complete waste of time and money!
There is no such thing as immunity, its beyond absurd.
He should just play the old and forgetful defense. Worked for joe
Absolutely not. No immunity
He's doing this so the Supreme Court can come back with a 9 to 0 on immunity.
he also said if trump ordered the military to stage a coup, it would be considered a presidential act. so trump will just say EVERYTHING he does is a presidential act
"16"! - “5 pieces of silver” - "16"! - “5 pieces of silver” - "16"! - “5 pieces of silver”
Not looking good for Sleepy Don.
Enough already put the Orange orangutan in jail already, and let the nation heal!!
Honestly, it's easy to answer. Is trying to win a second term a part of the role of president? It is not a requirement to run for a second term, it is not part of your duties, you do not get immunity.
Never had a problem with president immunity until Don the con.
Immunity as a necessary component of public office holding is a marvelous lie!
I wonder the questions the Supreme Court would have asked if the President were to send seal team against the Supreme Court? What if a liberal President takes out 6 conservative Supreme Court justices?
So why's he wasting the court's time... criminals aren't exempt from accountability because he wants to change the law...
Sounds more like a dictator than a President 🤔🤔
The right wing justices are this close to creating a King.
If there's such thing as a "Presidential Immunity" then, why is he in court. Have his lawyers to fight for something that don't exist, if the law exist?
If a political rival is determined to be corrupt, what's the litmus test? Fraudulent acts, hateful speech, hubris, nepotism, total ineptitude . . . Wait your Honor. You're describing my client!😂
Trump trials and breaking bad videos
...RUclips algorithm conflating the two lol.
Criminals be criminals!
Argument you got call Pelosi she was head of the capitol too
People get kicked out of bisnesses and have angry twords it.
in the next century, appointed judges by an incumbent President should also be replaced when the term of the President ends or better not to be appointed at all but elected by the highest intelectual Law Professors in the country.
Chad Daybell’s family goes to court for his trial
The judges are not even quoting the constitution and what it says about a president who has committed crimes and that he should be prosecuted for his crimes after leaving office. The constitution does not say anything about a president being above the law. I’m just saying that the judges are not above the constitution that they have sworn an oath to protect the constitution and the laws that are in place period. They can’t give diaper rash immunity from being prosecuted or anything else. And these judges who have been bought by the republicans are not very smart about this immunity issue because diaper bag could have one of them have an accident or something if he was not happy with the judge. If they were smart they would not have anything to do with this issue and send it back to the appeal courts.
What about due process
Du-du in trumps case
The minute they decide in Trump's favor on this issue Bidenight as well test it. Trump should be immediately terrified if he gets his way.
what did they talk about bin lauden
Only in a America 🇺🇸
The problems are six megas supreme luxury Court and judges they working for the megas Donald Trump party, hearing simple show.
they do
So Joe should take advantage off the results😊
These people are twisting the words of Trumps Attorneys words.
Trump attorney tried to be smarter, but justices are smartest 🤣😝😅😊😝🤣🤣
Is it a private act for a public figure running for President of the USA to question the validity of an election fraught with last minute arguably (as state constitutional laws were abrogated) construed as illegal by his voting constituents? Isn't it the candidates right and responsibility to put forth an alternative slate of electors to defend the rights of his voters? Is that a public or private act? When Al Gore challenged the Florida vote was he acting personally demanding a fair count? I would argue Gore was acting on behalf of his constituents. Cases like Pennsylvania where the States constitutional rules were broken were construed by Trump voters to be illegal at worst. Isnt it an official capacity to demand free and fair elections if you are President and as a candidate?
Keep reaching. Al Gore didn't have fake electors to try and overthrow the election for him nor did he incite an insurrection to stop the certification of bushes win.
People need to protest
This is reading railroad on and on 😅😅
Who's to sy that this behavior wont bleed over into chosing Justices that is pucked in the future, by the elected Presidents of the future.
Let's hope we survive this election cycle and can effect *actual* accountability for these scumbag, corrupt judges, who would even entertain the idea of immunity.
Positions of immense power need to be held to HIGHER standards and face GREATER consequences for corrupt, criminal activity than the rest of us. That kind of accountability is the only way we keep animals like Trump and the garbage he installed in the SCOTUS from seeking positions of power.
The sociopaths and narcissists who occupy elected office now should *fear* the additional scrutiny and liability that power brings. Let them hide under their rocks, rather than seek the power to rule over us.
This is BS! Lock the Trump up! Lock him up!!!!!!
i like her voice
I wonder if any of these democrats are starting to worry that Trump could actually be appointing the future director of the FBI and US Attorney General?
It makes me sick to my stomach thinking we're hearing a case like this. What happens if a man who's worse than Trump becomes President. Giving a President immunity that most likely means that Congress could be pretty much stripped of any power. Also, can you imagine having a President with immunity with access to the nuclear codes.
Not many worse humans than Scump...
LMAO
Of course he is immune. He is a king, after all.
He is a president because he was elected by the people.
and should be trump 4 life!!!!!
@@vioricas777Yes Biden was elected by the people. Trump lost.
KING TRUMP
😂😂😂😂😂😂
trump in away letting American know that he will be the very late president
Ridiculous! So it will be ok for the president to break the law? Let’s lower the government’s standards some more. I have to find another place to live. Trump belongs in a mental institution and that’s too embarrassing for Trump followers.
Will Joe Biden have total immunity too?
Let’s hope the next Black president gets absolute immunity!
Or never leave office
Even if he does not have immunity, there is no case! LOL
Of course he shouldn't be
Wonder if Jack Smith can refine the indictments accordingly.
Damn right!
Lol that would mean Biden could RIP trump right now lol
Vote Trump for world peace. Vote Biden for WWIII. Life is just multiple choices. Choose responsibly and wisely. #Trump2024
I would make sure they knew that they the Supreme Court would be on that hit list!!!
Can we just VOTE 💙 🇺🇸..... AND GET THE WANNABE DICTATOR 🤡 OUT OF THIS NIGHTMARE THAT WE ARE HAVING.
This is the same court that took woman’s rights away. Pathetic.
If presidents get immunity, Biden should have Seal Team 6 take trump out.
Clearly, NO crime committed
