Is Trump acting for good of country in seeking complete and total Presidential immunity?
Editor:
On Jan. 18, 2024, Donald Trump on Truth Social asserted that “All US Presidents must have complete & total Presidential immunity, or the authority & decisiveness of a President of the United States will be stripped & gone forever.”
As the US Circuit Court, the second level of appeal, is very likely to rule against his immunity request, he is now focused on the US Supreme Court which will be the final arbiter/decision making body.
At the end of his message he added, “Hopefully this will be an easy decision. God bless the Supreme Court.”
Is complete and total immunity good for the country? Is Trump on the right track here in asking that Presidents have this kind of power?
