My mom and I have been talking about presidential immunity lately, as I can’t think of an idea that more directly confounds what the Founding Fathers intended in terms of rule of law and the concept of a monarchy as a replacement for American democracy.
Mom believes if that U.S. presidents don’t have immunity, that they can be charged with crimes by their political opponents as in this case with Biden. What I try to get her to realize is that our justice system doesn’t work that way. In Trump’s case, four different grand juries in four different jurisdictions found there was solid evidence that Trump had committed 91 felonies and needed to be indicted accordingly.
If Biden had any power in this regard, do you think his own son would be going on trial for gun-law violations?
What about Nixon? He didn’t have immunity, which is why he resigned in disgrace.

Virtually all top-ranking retired military brass view Trump as shown at left. On top of that, Hegseth has publicly fired all current generals and admirals who are not loyal to Trump, as the entire world watched the purge.
Doesn’t this affect the way the psychopath’s command of our nation is ultimately determined?
Keep in mind that “removing Trump from office” and “stop talking about Trump” are two different events.
It’s quite possible that a Democrat-controlled congress could remove him from power within the coming months. But think about the damage he’s done to our nation and the path to repair it. Think about the war, the trade deals, the economic policies, our relationships with our allies, the racism, our erstwhile position as leader in world democracy, and the degradation in public health, education, and environmental responsibility.
We’ll be talking about Trump as long as an organized human civilization is functioning on this planet.
