    I don’t understand what there is to discuss here at all. If the US president had immunity as a matter of principle, he wouldn’t be a president, he’d be some kind of god-king (even kings couldn’t do whatever they wanted).

        Well, I’m not very familiar with the US Constitution. But if there really is any leeway for such advances, it doesn’t seem to me to be a good constitution for a democratic country.

        From what I understand it’s just another way he’s making a mockery of the justice system. He’s making these absurd claims so he can have new cases come up and delay delay delay delay. Once he becomes president he can then have his DOJ dog wipe it all away.

        The conservatives agree… For conservative presidents only, of course.

        There ia no such thing as a “good conservative”. Each one is a cancer cell in the global disease that kills and oppresses normal people.
