Plus assassinations don't have quite the same oomph if the guy only serves 4-8, so we've got that to consider.

Its not that bad.
A little extra pomp and ceremony here and there. A few more entries in the gossip mags. A slightly thicker skin on your forehead as you salute your betters. And a love of Corgi's ofcause.
They just played Biden's response on Australian TV. Sleepy Joe vs Emperor Trump... easy choice in the end. Trump might see it as a win now, but I think it will bite him at the election.
Washington himself said no man is above the law. This court flips more than gymnasts at the OlympicsThe majority’s claim that the founders wanted a vigorous, unrestrained executive are 100% horseshit. The founders debated whether or not to shoot the President right away or wait until he did something odious.
It’s a slope covered in PFAS….we will rocket right to the bottom.I think that its a slippery slope, for it the President is immune, then surely his 'instruments' aka his goons are immune as well?
This decision should end any discussion about the current majority being originalists or textualists. The creators of the Constitution could have put immunity for the president in the constitution and they very clearly did not. The whole fucking point was to not create an unaccountable despot.The majority’s claim that the founders wanted a vigorous, unrestrained executive are 100% horseshit.

We both know attempting a coup is illegal but you and other conservatives claim we can't know until it is adjudicated. You stating "we know that is an illegal order" is meaningless. It's your opinion that it is an illegal order, just like you claim it's our opinion that Trump attempted a coup.As I said all the Hyperbolic bull shit being spewed is amazing.
We both know that is an illegal order.

Pardoning is an official act so just have goons murder all political rivals ad than pardon them. All done. Hell, generals can’t refuse any war crime order by the potus because the potus’s intent can’t be questioned and is immuneI think that its a slippery slope, for it the President is immune, then surely his 'instruments' aka his goons are immune as well?
We are in a 1939 Germany moment.wrong @pcgeek11
Most if not all the generals said they’d ignore an illegal order from the orange monkey. But in an revenge tour and project 2025, who knows how many military officials he’ll go through to find his butt kissers.Pardoning is an official act so just have goons murder all political rivals ad than pardon them.

The generals can’t ignore an illegal order now as there are none if it is an official act. He will kill any general who defies him as an official act. America is now an absolute MonarchyMost if not all the generals said they’d ignore an illegal order from the orange monkey. But in an revenge tour and project 2025, who knows how many military officials he’ll go through to find his butt kissers.
But wonder if current generals would be willing to take the bullet to help Biden break democracy to save it
Yep, and by definition, every order from the Commander in Chief to the military is an official act. Which can now never be illegal nor even questioned for legality nor motive.The generals can’t ignore an illegal order now as there are none if it is an official act.

If you thought I was claiming that you’re even stupider than I thought and to be clear, that’s a high bar.What happened? Up until a few weeks ago, you were claiming everything was fine.
Unless I'm missing your /s?
And just thinking that a classified document is unclassified makes it so, if you are president.I guess we can stop paying for the White House office of legal counsel. No need for it anymore, anything the Pres does is a-ok.
Fiscal conservatism for the win!
He wasn't POTUS when he falsified those records, so no immunity via this "ruling."Trump Moves to Overturn Manhattan Conviction, Citing Immunity Decision
Former President Donald J. Trump took the action hours after a U.S. Supreme Court ruling granted him immunity for official acts committed in office.www.nytimes.com
And now he wants to use this ruling to overturn his 34 felony convictions. Is falsifying business records an official act? Let's consult the SCOTUS tea leaves!
Coups are now legal so he may as well try.Edit:
If Biden loses the election, I don’t see a reason not to use the same powers Trump will inevitably gain in the lame duck.
Commander and Chief is a core constitutional duty, 100% immunity, period.Yep, and by definition, every order from the Commander in Chief to the military is an official act. Which can now never be illegal nor even questioned for legality nor motive.
Imagine Julius Caesar crossing the Rubicon today.How does that work. I'm going to burn the house down preemptively before you do it? That saves the house?
