BTW...POTUS can be criminally charged for behavior conducted in office...just not while he is POTUS. That is what the impeachment process is for.

What….. I…….. I’m not even sure where to start with this nonsense. The impeachment process has nothing to do with “criminality” whatsoever, full stop. It’s a political and Constitutional process and can be used against a President when the President commits an offense (a political offense) against the (people of the) country via doing something unconstitutional.
On to the other parts of the nonsense you said: the question everyone is posing (and hopes the Supreme Court will weigh on) is if the President can be charged criminally (after he’s out of office) for something he did politically while in office. While Trump has been charged criminally, none of the actions he’s been charged criminally for have ever been legally considered criminal acts UNTIL NOW. It’s the Ouroboros Snake. If anything political can be made criminal at the will of the party in power, then a President can be charged with anything they so chose after he’s out of office. THAT is the situation and not the convoluted nonsense you posted.
