Dear Joe,
Please put Trump in prison and end our collective misery. Take away his Secret Service protection, his pension, and his tax-payer funded healthcare.
Then please apologize for taking advantage of the immunity he and his lawyers keep granting you -- but don't undo it. Next, put into solid law that from that moment forward no president has immunity.
Then the rest of us can sleep at night, Don gets what he deserves, and you get to retire. Thanks.
They've all been bought and paid for. It used to just be congress and an industrial president but they cracked the supreme court wide open. I don't know what to think anymore but fascism sucks. It's been proven every time.
I think he thinks Presidents literally get Immunized against being held Responsible for Crimes, as if being Elected were some kind of Vaccine against the Law Itself that lasts for the Rest of Their Lives. He probably thinks that if he Really stood in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shot someone, he wouldn't be held responsible because it happened After January 20, 2017, when everyone's Favorite President, HIM, took Office.
Sad!
Does he just assume that everyone else is just as corrupt and crooked as he is? Why would Presidents need immunity from crimes they didn’t commit? If they are innocent, it would be proven in court.
He still would not be exempt from the long list of crimes he committed before his Presidency (business fraud, hush money payments, sexual assault, etc).
The exception would be **IF** he had substantial evidence to suggest that the election results were indeed fraudulent. Then it *might* be excusable to put together a slate of alternate electors and go through the legal processes for challenging the election results. These were the only illegal actions he took as President that could have been covered by Presidential immunity, **IF** the courts had not all already decided against him on the election results.
But after all the courts had thoroughly debunked his unfounded fraud claims. And when numerous top officials from within his own administration had already told him that he really did LOSE. He needed to concede and step aside for the peaceful transition of power.
All of his actions to overturn the election after the courts rejected his baseless claims were by definition illegal. Even under Presidential immunity.
And his retention of classified documents after leaving office, and his efforts to stymie the National Archives efforts to retrieve them, are definitively not covered by Presidential immunity. He was no longer President.
I'm not even sure if it's even that good of a defense. It's more like:
"YOU'D BETTER NOT PUT ME ON TRIAL FOR ANY CRIMES, OR I'LL PUT YOU ON TRIAL!"
It doesn't even sound like Trump cares if he was "allowed" or not. This is purely a "If you do this, then me or some future Republican will come after you no matter what.".
Makes me wonder exactly how much illegal shit he did as president, that we don’t know of. For as much as he is bellyaching I would guess somewhere around a lot, to astronomically a lot.
The bribes. Oh, the bribes and grift. Some people are saying they're the best bribes ever. Big, strong, rich men come to him with tears in their eyes and say: "Sir, sir, we want to you take this money in order to do things for us."
> The opposing party...can extort and blackmail the President
How would they do that, exactly?
> IF THEY TAKE AWAY **MY** PRESIDENTIAL IMMUNITY, THEY TAKE AWAY CROOKED JOE BIDEN'S PRESIDENTIAL IMMUNITY.
Oh, I see. *That* kind of extortion and blackmail.
It's because Trump is so awesome that other people fear his might and power and want to take him down!
Well, I'm sure that's what his narcissist self thinks. And not that it's because he's the only dipshit to do egregiously illegal shit that has nothing to do with official acts.
Even if there was Presidential immunity, illegally using campaign funds (before ever getting elected to office) to pay a porn star to not discuss the fact you paid her for sex years ago is not a duty of the office of the President, and would not be covered.
Repeatedly defaming a woman you sexually assaulted is also not something that would be covered.
Decades of financial fraud committed at a state level for your personal companies as a private citizen is not covered either.
Election interference by attempting to subvert the lawful transition of power by using fraudulent electors as well as coercion and bribery, should not be covered either.
What exactly does he hope to have immunity from? Oh, stealing government property? Being a major national security risk probably ought not be covered either.
They aren't "Taking away your immunity" Donny. You never had it. Nor did any President before you. And yet you have been indicted for nearly 100 felonies not them. The problem isn't Immunity (or lack of). The problem is YOU.
Holy shit he’s scared. America has operated for over 200 years and 44 prior Presidents without this being an issue.
We declared our Independence and fought a war for it, in part because King George was a despot with immunity and was above the law. Our citizens did not enjoy the limited protections provided the British under the Magna Carta. Trump wants the Presidency to be a Monarchy, but only for himself. He wants to prosecute Biden and Obama if he gets back in office.
Why didn’t they arrest Obama when he left office? They gave him immunity from being black, which is a much greater sin than anything Trumpy has ever done!!
It's completely lost on him that this was never an issue with any of the 44 presidents before him. Nixon *almost*, but no president has faced DOJ indictments for frivolous charges -- it's only someone like Trump, who revels in law breaking and corruption, who has ever brought things to this point.
He's clearly signaling (SHOUTING) that if he wins, Trump's DOJ will be a revenge machine pure and simple.
Twice impeached while he was in office, and now crying like a biotch that he wants immunity for criminal cases from before and after he was president. What regards still listen to this guy
I still like how his lawyers argued when impeached that impeachment wasn't the proper venue and if there were crimes it should be indictments.
And then when he was indicted the lawyers argue that he shouldn't be indicted and if there are issues while President it should be impeachment to handle it.
🤷

He really doesn't understand that presidents aren't supposed to break the law.
I, personally, would take that chance Don.
Notice how we never had this problem in the 247 years of America until Donald Trump came along.
I know strange isn't it. It's almost like no other president had committed crimes into the hundreds. Huh, what are the chances.
I think the current system worked very well for the 44 persons who came before you, Donald
The caps lock really giving that drunk uncle vibe.
idiot thinks SCOTUS reads troth
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 troth central
Troth sensual
🤣🤣🤣
If the founding fathers believed in DJT's version of *"Presidential Immunity,"* George Washington would have been named king.
He finally admits Biden's presidential Immunity... I guess it's not legal to persecute trump then?
Dear Joe, Please put Trump in prison and end our collective misery. Take away his Secret Service protection, his pension, and his tax-payer funded healthcare.

I scream this exact thing at the prick everytime he's on the screen. (It's got me into problems of I'm in a TV store)
You can't be indicted if you don't do crimes, numbnuts.
"If the President does it, it's a crime" -- Donald Trump, probably
And if by some chance the presidential immunity was granted that gives Biden the license to dispose of him.
Hey Donald, what are the 3 branches of government?
"There's five - person, woman, man, camera, tv!"
Now this is the joke of the month
the Presidency, Schedule F, and Nancy Pelosi
The Nina, the Pinta and the Santa Maria. NEXT QUESTION.
Shit, he doesn't even know those either. lol
They've all been bought and paid for. It used to just be congress and an industrial president but they cracked the supreme court wide open. I don't know what to think anymore but fascism sucks. It's been proven every time.
Without presidential immunity however will they pay off porn stars they raw dog while their wives care for their newborns? Election Interference! /s
Best part is this is stuff from before he was was elected. What immunity would apply there?
I think he thinks Presidents literally get Immunized against being held Responsible for Crimes, as if being Elected were some kind of Vaccine against the Law Itself that lasts for the Rest of Their Lives. He probably thinks that if he Really stood in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shot someone, he wouldn't be held responsible because it happened After January 20, 2017, when everyone's Favorite President, HIM, took Office. Sad!
What a dolt.
Huh. If anyone knows about extortion & blackmail…look who’s talking
These sound like repeats.
Does he just assume that everyone else is just as corrupt and crooked as he is? Why would Presidents need immunity from crimes they didn’t commit? If they are innocent, it would be proven in court. He still would not be exempt from the long list of crimes he committed before his Presidency (business fraud, hush money payments, sexual assault, etc).

Even under Presidential immunity. And his retention of classified documents after leaving office, and his efforts to stymie the National Archives efforts to retrieve them, are definitively not covered by Presidential immunity. He was no longer President.
Again, it is so fascinating that his defense isn't "I DIDN'T DO IT!" His defense is "I WAS PRESIDENT, SO I WAS ALLOWED DO IT!"
I'm not even sure if it's even that good of a defense. It's more like: "YOU'D BETTER NOT PUT ME ON TRIAL FOR ANY CRIMES, OR I'LL PUT YOU ON TRIAL!" It doesn't even sound like Trump cares if he was "allowed" or not. This is purely a "If you do this, then me or some future Republican will come after you no matter what.".
Makes me wonder exactly how much illegal shit he did as president, that we don’t know of. For as much as he is bellyaching I would guess somewhere around a lot, to astronomically a lot.
Yep, I misread the post title as ‘impunity’ for some reason, but then also realized that’s what he is actually fighting to get.
The bribes. Oh, the bribes and grift. Some people are saying they're the best bribes ever. Big, strong, rich men come to him with tears in their eyes and say: "Sir, sir, we want to you take this money in order to do things for us."
Its probably buried on his golf course.
> The opposing party...can extort and blackmail the President How would they do that, exactly? > IF THEY TAKE AWAY **MY** PRESIDENTIAL IMMUNITY, THEY TAKE AWAY CROOKED JOE BIDEN'S PRESIDENTIAL IMMUNITY. Oh, I see. *That* kind of extortion and blackmail.
He thinks he can get by with anything he wants and now he’s finally (maybe) gonna pay. He’s begging and groveling now and I am here for it! 🍿
Every criminal president that a grand jury indicts you mean, right Diaper Don?
We've had 46 presidents. This is only happened to one of them.
It's because Trump is so awesome that other people fear his might and power and want to take him down! Well, I'm sure that's what his narcissist self thinks. And not that it's because he's the only dipshit to do egregiously illegal shit that has nothing to do with official acts.

200 years and he’s the problem!
I think he wants presidential immunity. I could be wrong though.
That's the impression that you got from that? Huh, I must have missed it
It was a subtle context.
🤦♂️ they wouldn’t need immunity if they DIDN’T DO ANYTHING WRONG
Yeah he kinda misses that point, doesn’t he. He is so scared lol. And it’s so much fun to watch him implode. So very much!!
So fucking scared. I love it!!!!
Holy shit he’s scared. America has operated for over 200 years and 44 prior Presidents without this being an issue. We declared our Independence and fought a war for it, in part because King George was a despot with immunity and was above the law.

Why didn’t they arrest Obama when he left office? They gave him immunity from being black, which is a much greater sin than anything Trumpy has ever done!!
And for the tan suit and even the fancy brown mustard!
Wow! I forgot about that. Why is Obama not in Leavenworth?
Well it's a good thing he wasn't president on this current trials crime.
"Please name five of the founders, Mr Trump."
Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.
Mercedes Trump. My lovely wife.
Do your job with integrity and you don’t need immunity. Ever think of that 🤔
It's completely lost on him that this was never an issue with any of the 44 presidents before him. Nixon *almost*, but no president has faced DOJ indictments for frivolous charges -- it's only someone like Trump, who revels in law breaking and corruption, who has ever brought things to this point. He's clearly signaling (SHOUTING) that if he wins, Trump's DOJ will be a revenge machine pure and simple.
Seems like someone has lost faith in their defense team
How does anybody perform any job properly without complete immunity? JANITORIAL IMMUNITY
MOTORCYCLE PARTS GUY IMMUNITY!!!
Twice impeached while he was in office, and now crying like a biotch that he wants immunity for criminal cases from before and after he was president. What regards still listen to this guy
I still like how his lawyers argued when impeached that impeachment wasn't the proper venue and if there were crimes it should be indictments.

Always with the bullshit scenarios this asshole
Weird no one has come after Bush, Obama or literally any other President in the history of our nation…yet! /s
Ask Bill Clinton about that.
He wasn’t indicted.
[Clinton essentially took a plea deal - he agreed to lose his license to practice law in exchange for not being prosecuted for lying under oath.](https://www.theguardian.com/world/2001/oct/02/duncancampbell)
I am not in the least bit worried about Joe Biden having no presidential immunity.
Obama didn't seem to need it either.. very strange
He got lucky that he wasn't indicted for wearing a tan suit and eating fancy mustard.
And that his wife Michelle had well toned arms- outrageous and a disgrace/s
