And now on to the more serious question of immunity. . .

[Lone Wanderer]

That's false. Quote the constitution which you believe states that. I assure you, it doesn't. In modernity, tradition has it that the AG/DOJ operates independent of the executive branch. The cornerstone of United States jurisprudence is 'no one is above the law', including the president, which means he, like everyone else, is subject to the law. Moreover, States are not part of the DOJ and he is indicted in two states. In order for the justice department to apply the law equally to all citizens, it must operate independently of the executive branch.


Were you alive during Watergate? Clinton? You should know this.

The impeachment process of the constitution is a political procedure. in the DOJ, or state's justice departments, it's a criminal procedure.

In practice, the AG is about as impartial as a car salesman is regarding the purchase of a vehicle. It wasn't like this in the past, but Garland is clearly just a DNC attack dog. Most of the executive branch has become politicized to the point of absurdity. We closely resemble the partisanship seen in many Latin American countries now.

Lone Wanderer is describing what His Orangeness tried to do in his term.

He was about 50%, and then Barr said "no, you fucker" and Clark and Eastman are third weights who could not carry the load.

The DOJ is prepared for Trump this time. Jeez, is he going to cry time and time again when told "no" if re-elected.

Make no mistake.

He will appoint the likes of Eastman and others worse if elected

There will be no “adults on the room@ this time

The DOJ is just a politicized agency like the intelligence agencies. They do whatever the bureaucratic state desires. At best, Trump could appoint someone to counter that bias, but he probably couldn't eliminate it.

It's a policy that can be changed.

Thanks for admitting the truth about Roe v Wade.

Just watched a couple of Biden campaign ads from a Lansing MI station. What a crock.

Where good thing or bad thing (j/k) machine gunning Congress is not within the duties/prerogatives of the Presidential office. I'm pretty sure he couldn't kill everybody before somebody took him down. But if he did unlawfully machine gun somebody, hopefully Congress would act quickly to deal with it. And once convicted and removed from office, he/she would then be subject to charges, indictment, trial, conviction, prison, death penalty for murder.

It is up to the people to elect somebody who won't be machine gunning people. We all are suspicious of this or that person in high places quietly ordering or effecting the murder of somebody, but so far nobody has been conclusively charged with such a crime.

Presidential prerogatives?

Huh?

 

[Dante]

He should be home free on the insurrection issue. The House indicted him but the Senate acquitted him. That should end the matter once and for all. And he should be immune from prosecution for anything done within the scope of his duties and authority as President other than Congress.

Machine gunning Congress is not at issue here. The President being able to conduct his duties and responsibilities and prerogatives within the scope of his constitutional authority without fear that vindictive people, government or private, will try to harm or destroy him during and after he leaves office is at issue here.

Presidential prerogatives again?

I see it mentioned by you multiple times.

Have you any idea what discussion during the constitutional convention were about "prerogatives?"
