Trump posts all-caps rant telling people they 'JUST HAVE TO LIVE WITH' presidents who 'CROSS THE LINE'

Donald Trump is once again claiming that presidents should have total immunity from any crimes they commit while in office — this time, with an all-caps rant posted to Truth Social.

~snip~

"A PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES MUST HAVE FULL IMMUNITY, WITHOUT WHICH IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR HIM/HER TO PROPERLY FUNCTION," Trump wrote on his social-media platform in the early hours of Thursday morning. "ANY MISTAKE, EVEN IF WELL INTENDED, WOULD BE MET WITH ALMOST CERTAIN INDICTMENT BY THE OPPOSING PARTY AT TERM END.

Trump Crossed the Line. But it's OK. He has immunity.

A PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES MUST HAVE FULL IMMUNITY, WITHOUT WHICH IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR HIM/HER TO PROPERLY FUNCTION. ANY MISTAKE, EVEN IF WELL INTENDED, WOULD BE MET WITH ALMOST CERTAIN INDICTMENT BY THE OPPOSING PARTY AT TERM END. EVEN EVENTS THAT “CROSS THE LINE” MUST FALL UNDER TOTAL IMMUNITY, OR IT WILL BE YEARS OF TRAUMA TRYING TO DETERMINE GOOD FROM BAD. THERE MUST BE CERTAINTY. EXAMPLE: YOU CAN’T STOP POLICE FROM DOING THE JOB OF STRONG & EFFECTIVE CRIME PREVENTION BECAUSE YOU WANT TO GUARD AGAINST THE OCCASIONAL “ROGUE COP” OR “BAD APPLE.” SOMETIMES YOU JUST HAVE TO LIVE WITH “GREAT BUT SLIGHTLY IMPERFECT.” ALL PRESIDENTS MUST HAVE COMPLETE & TOTAL PRESIDENTIAL IMMUNITY, OR THE AUTHORITY & DECISIVENESS OF A PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES WILL BE STRIPPED & GONE FOREVER. HOPEFULLY THIS WILL BE AN EASY DECISION. GOD BLESS THE SUPREME COURT!

REGULATOR insightfully posted: “how is it low rent DA Ga’s Willis and NY’s AG Latecia James and a smarmy entourage of small time govt hoods, can take the words of the powerful most astute President of the United States out of context....... and charge and arrest him?

If this were to be universally allowed, no President could ever venture
outside D.C. for fear of inciting the opposing party’s “trumped up charges.”

And that is precisely why the immunity clause exists.

Trump did not cross any line. It’s all political games, USSR and Third World style.

But the point he makes is correct.

Guess never-Trumpers cannot see that.

Still trying to figure out what line he crossed, other than intimidating the existing power structure.

Right. This “GREAT BUT SLIGHTLY IMPERFECT" man made well intended mistakes, but he didn't cross any line because "Immunity".

Trump needs to quit yelling on Trump Social in the middle of the night.

I’m sure there is a salient point in there, but I can’t deal with the all-caps nonsense. I bet I’m not the only one either. He would do well to jettison that.

Its easier sitting behind a computer, faceless, well hidden and attacking a scapegoat because your preferred candidate flounders. Anything else, like cleaning up the glaring problems (Rinos), in ones own party would require effort and actually doing something. Much more fun to take the lazy way out behind a keyboard, and skewer Trump with whatever they think will score a few points.

In addition to reading the Constitution, the poster should beware carpal tunnel.

I'm just quoting the man ... I don't think we need to haggle over the meaning of "complete" or "total" ... we can leave that sort of thing to Mr. Clinton.

I don't agree with Mr. Trump, here, BTW.

It would be pointless at this time.
Biden is a barely functioning bowl of jello. He's just the puppet (an annoying, and insulting puppet; but nonetheless, just a toothless puppet) - his handlers need to be prosecuted for their crimes against America (allowing the wholesale invasion, pushing pointless wars, etc), I wouldn't waste the time with Joe Biden. Perhaps go after the Biden organized crime Family, and recoup the laundered money.

How about Obama AND Biden assassinating overseas Americans?

Does that have immunity?

It’s Yahoo News. When they’re not attacking Trump, they’re busy trying to rehabilitate Stalin and Mao.
