So this nonesense about giving Trump immunity is on and I must say his side has come up with some dumbest arguments I have ever seen
Numerous presidents have been able to do "bold and fearless actions" without total immunity. The idea that we demand the president act within the law and the framework of basic moral decency is apparently to much to ask.
Quote:“If a president can be charged, put on trial and imprisoned for his most controversial decisions as soon as he leaves office, that looming threat will distort the president’s decision making precisely when bold and fearless action is most needed,”Wow you mean there being consequence for committing horrific and illegal acts might make you think twice about committing horrific and illegal acts. I'm sorry any illegally action your willing to take should be one your willing to suffer the consequences for and if the only reason your willing to commit these "bold and fearless actions" is you won't suffer any consequences that shows a distinct lack of conviction in the correctness of the act.
Quote:Justice Samuel Alito asked, “If an incumbent who loses a very close, hotly contested election knows that a real possibility after leaving office is not that the president is going to be able to go off into a peaceful retirement but that the president may be criminally prosecuted by a bitter political opponent — will that not lead us into a cycle that destabilizes the functioning of our country as a democracy?”If you committed criminal actions in office and are found guilty of committing them you shouldn't have "a peaceful retirement " you should have to suffer the consequences of your actions.

“No matter what men think, abortion is a fact of life. Women have always had them; they always have and they always will. Are they going to have good ones or bad ones? Will the good ones be reserved for the rich, while the poor women go to quacks?”
