Sotomayor: If the president decides that his rival is a corrupt person and he orders the military to assassinate him, is that within his official acts to which he has immunity?

"That could well be an official act," Trump lawyer John Sauer says

Maybe he wants Trump assassinated.
Didn't most of his lawyers hate him?

So if Trump wins this case then Biden gets to do whatever he wants to him?

There's no "could" to that. It absolutely would be an official act. But even worse than that, is that it would set the worst precedent in US history. What's even dumber is that we're even humoring this type of insanity. Like... This is the worst defense ever. It's like the lawyers have settled on "yeah, he's guilty AF ... Under normal circumstances, but you see, he was the president, so he's immune to being a criminal." Why the fuck are we even allowing this mockery of all of our laws to even be a thing?

Just the military. Can be any branch.

I'm sure the CIA and FBI have done domestic wetwork in the past but strictly speaking that's illegal.

So, using the logic of the lawyer, should Biden have Trump eliminated then that would be "an official act".

*Sound of someone tripping over themselves*

"No, that's different!"

(No one should be assassinating anyone of course)

I'm not gonna participate in you guys shitting up this topic w/ this. Biden sucks, Trump is worse, and I'm still not voting.

My only comment on topic would be re: if Trump wins this argument, the Dems wouldn't have the spine to assassinate Trump.

You literally can only say bad things about Biden and dems tho lmao

A generic Republican bad is nothing compared to how much you post about Biden and dems. In THIS fucking topic all you have to say is calling the dems spineless when Trump is trying to legitimize assassination.

At this point, the party system doesn't even matter on that one. There's legitimately an option that says it wants to kill the competition and they are not only still able to walk outside and do whatever they want, but they are actively running for president again and all attempts to remove them from the voting ballots have been snubbed.

The fact that it's degenerated down to 1 or the other is irrelevant here.

In other words, youre ok with either one being president. Nothing Trump has done has convinced you to try and prevent him from taking office again.

One is killing someone that is overseas that you're in conflict with as a country and another is killing the competition that directly threatens your attempts to change your government to a "day 1 dictatorship for 1 day." And that's just the most obvious difference.

I love how, moments after having to force themself to type "Trump is worse," they immediately had to relieve themself of the suffering by throwing in the grade school jab of "But Democrats wouldn't have the spine to do what Trump would!"

Right, like in this case, if Democrats were like "yep, it's legal, time to murder fuck everyone" and they did do that, would the response be "hell yeah, Democrats grew a spine!" Or would it be "WHAT IN THE FRESH HELL IS GOING ON WITH MY COUNTRY!?"

It might be low-hanging fruit, but it's true. Even if it were to pass the courts as an okay thing to do, and w/ Trump being the threat he is, the Dems still wouldn't do it. The Dems, the media, and the major financial powers in this country do not care if Trump wins - and many of them probably wish for it.

at least 3 other people - jokingly or not - mentioned Biden assassinating Trump under this. I feel like my comments were relevant.

I'm not advocating for it, just saying that that the Dems wouldn't do it.

If something like that happened, whichever group does it, this country would be done.

Let's just hope it never actually happens. No one should be advocating for it, it's honestly terrifying.

One of the more accurate things Trump said was that he could shoot somebody in the middle of the street and not lose voters. There's a very real chance the man arguing that Presidents can murder anyone they want will be our next President, and half this country doesn't seem concerned.
