That's exactly what it comes down to with today's SC ruling. If something is done by a POTUS with THE INTENTION as part of his official duties OR the outer perimeter of his official duties, he can't be criminally charged. It would be up to Congress to discipline the POTUS via the power of impeachment & conviction.

The dissenting justices are absolutely correct in their example of Seal Team 6 so long as the POTUS believed doing so was within in official duties.

Today's ruling elevates the POTUS to a god, not a king.


Which would be excellent for Trump come 2024!!! Watch out suckers and losers.


Sorry but this ruling eliminates any chance for that. Wait until you see what an election looks like under a god king.


Well, you have to have a King in the first place suckers and losers.

There is a reason they made sure this ruling happened now, before there was any chance trump could be reelected. This will ensure that that won't happen.

We shall see - Trump was leading in ALL swing states before the meltdown and now the lead has grown by 100%.

If they aren't "convicting" Trump for the insurrection because as they said at the time, it was a matter for the criminal courts, they won't convict any president for any crime.

What's wrong, I thought the right wanted a god-king President? You all are the ones who appointed these jokers. They could have let the DC Circuit decision stand, but no, they took it a step further and are just assuming Biden is too polite to take advantage of it. He probably is, but do you see the problem now? Because Trump won't be bashful in usurping and consolidating power once in office.

That's not what the opinion said. Their official/unofficial line, which sounds good on paper but is a bit silly once you think about it, basically means that really really bad actions by the president do not get immunity. Sort of bad actions probably get absolute immunity. But really really bad actions don't.


Well, if "seal team 6" and fomenting a coup or a fake elector scheme aren't really bad actions, if stealing classified documents and sharing them with our enemies aren't crimes, then what are?

Polite? He needs to defend this nation from traitors. That is his job.

That’s what Biden did.

He doesn't need to do this. But he can have the justice department detain Trump without bail for Treason and Sedition for his part in trying to overthrow the government, trying to overturn lawfully held elections, trying to stay in office past his term and threatening both executive branch and legislative branch officers of the federal government. At least for the next 6 months. That would most definitely be within the legal jurisdiction and authority of the current executive branch of the government; it definitely falls under domestic national security. And he wouldn't need to kill anyone to do it.

Seriously. The days are waning where we can stop the takeover of our democracy by cristofascists. This turns my stomach.

I thought the people talking about moving to Canada were crazy. They are looking less crazy by the day. I'm not in the mood to live in a Trump dicatorship. Are you?


A trump dictatorship? Hell no. If SCOTUS just decided this should be a dictatorship than it is a Biden dictatorship and he sure better engineer a better successor than trump.

The ruling only means Biden can't be criminally charged for doing so. It doesn't mean Trump, in this scenario, loses his right to challenge those decisions in court.
