Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) announced Monday that he and other Senate Democrats will work to advance legislation to strip former President Trump of the immunity he was granted under a recent Supreme Court ruling protecting a president’s official acts from criminal prosecution.

Schumer, invoking Congress’s powers to regulate the courts, said Democrats are working on legislation to classify Trump’s efforts to subvert the results of the 2020 election as “unofficial acts” so they do not merit immunity from criminal prosecution under the high court’s recent 6-3 decision.

“They incorrectly declared that former President Trump enjoys broad immunity from criminal prosecution for actions he took while in office. They incorrectly declared that all future presidents are entitled to a breathtaking level of immunity so long as their conduct is ostensibly carried out in their official capacity as president,” Schumer said on the Senate floor.

Schumer said the court’s conservative justices had “effectively placed a crown on Donald Trump’s head,” putting him above the law and making him “in many ways untouchable.”

Comment:
The Democrat Party is a dangerous totalitarian cult.
Schumer will have to amend the constitution if he wants to strip presidents of immunity.
The Dirty Democrats can't win on the issues, so they are attempting win by arresting Trump on bogus indictments.
They are as corrupt as a banana republic junta.
They are not saving "democracy", they are destroying it.

Yeah, but can't Trump say he's a well-meaning but forgetful old man?

LOL

One really has to be a special kind of amateur, oblivious gaslighter and cultist to say taking away absolute immunity from a President is a move toward authoritarianism and not away from it.

a three hour tour

The Capitol Police instigated the violence and it was a protest of fraud. The Congress refused to investigate it. Why?

Don't accuse Trump supporters of tearing down institutions when Democrats are going after the SCOTUS.

They are not tearing it down, they are building it up.
