The court said, sure, a President is immune while in office, but anything he did while in office once he leaves office he's no longer immune.

So, that would apply to every past, current, and future President.

But, it also would, of necessity, apply to judges at all levels across the fruited plain. Judges have immunity while serving, but taking this ruling to a logical conclusion, once any judge, Federal, State, etc. leaves the bench, their immunity from acts done as sitting judges no longer exists once they are no longer on the bench.

Oh, and Texas should indict Obama and Eric Holder.


Oh, and Mexican families should sue Obama and Holder.


I mean, immunity is dead once you leave office, so said three judges.
 
This ruling is so bad that our Republic is teetering.

The inanity of proclaiming that yes, a President is immune while in office, but once he leaves office anything he did while in office he loses that immunity.
 
“The court dismissed the notion that taking away immunity would have a chilling effect on future presidents,” Jarrett added.

“Let’s tap our common sense, inevitably it would. Just about every president would now have to vet every decision by a team of lawyers so he doesn’t get charged when he leaves office. Do we want lawyers to be commanders in chief and not the president?”
