Former President Trump’s legal team suggested Tuesday that even a president directing SEAL Team Six to kill a political opponent would be an action barred from prosecution given a former executive’s broad immunity to criminal prosecution.
The hypothetical was presented to Trump attorney John Sauer who answered with a “qualified yes” that a former president would be immune from prosecution on that matter or even on selling pardons.
Remember when the maga clowns’ favourite insult for Obama was “King Obama” because of some perceived presidential overreach issues? If they had any moral integrity, pointing out these double standards would make them think.
A week ago, we were half jokingly saying that if their arguments were valid, Biden could straight up shoot Trump at the first debate, say “Presidential Immunity, fucker”, and walk off the stage. The judge then asks a Trump lawyer about a similar hypothetical, and the idiot actually says yeah, that’s fine.
Because he’s calling their bluff. Go ahead, feel free to take the shot. We all know Biden doesn’t have that set on him. The Dems lack the Allen Dulles energy that’ll put two in the head of the opposition’s front runner from the sixth floor of Dealey Plaza.
If Biden was the kind of guy who would walk onto the debate stage with a shootgun that had “Executive Immunity” etched into it, maybe he wouldn’t. But that’s more of a Ted Cruz / Lauren Boebert move. Biden will do a TikTok where he calls Trump a hypocrite, right before his DOJ drops another ten indictments nobody thinks will ever see the inside of a courtroom.
Every alarm is going off, people. They are telling everyone exactly what they intend to do.

Fuck this Nazi and wannabe hitler 2.0
People just think Trump is a jokester.
I think it’s the dangerous side-effect of him being such a fake reality TV personality. He can say over the top insane things and people are already trained to not take him too seriously.
Sadly, conservatives are either too stupid to even understand, or it’s EXACTLY what they want.
There is no in between.
I have nothing else to say to this man. This is one of those times where all the people outright calling him a Nazi were 100% correct.
Now I’m worried that he’s gonna turn the Navy SEALs into the modern day Gestapo.
The SEALs won’t put up with that shit. They have the same ability to tell their CO, “nope, that’s an unlawful order,” that the Nukes do. Difference is that the CO isn’t gonna try to force the SEAL to do shit.
The SEALs won’t put up with that shit.
The SEALs will line up single file while backslapping and ho-raying, then get into the helicopter that crashes six miles outside of the drop zone. They’re a bunch of juiced up twenty-year-olds with silver stars in their eyes. They’ll fall over themselves for the opportunity to do something recklessly stupid.

How many Michael Flynns do you think are bouncing around the US military? More than enough to find someone willing to bite.
Unless im mistaken every US soldier not only has the ability but the duty to refuse unlawful orders. ‘Just following orders’ is not acceptable in reducing any amount of personal fault iirc.
You’re correct, but Nukes get reminded about it constantly during training, cause of the reactor that we were expected to know everything about, and the officers don’t.
sweet deal, where can I get this insurance?
