          Sure, the president has been killing people and starting wars for decades and nothing happens. And how do you think all presidents are rich after being public “servants” for their whole lives? They will only get in trouble if its for personal gain directly.

          They cant do that without going to prison… They have already killed american citizens around the world, this is nothing new.

            According to whom? This was literally the example presented for this case and SCOTUS rules it was A-OK

              Says the constitution and the three branches of government. And that was not what the SCOTUS said, that is the bulshit they are selling you.

            How would they go to prison? The highest court in the country just said that they have immunity.

                    That’s a good example. I remember senators not supporting his second one because “Trump’s time was over”. So a president can do whatever they like in their last few weeks in office, and not face legal consequences for impeachable actions? So if Biden wants to have Trump shot, he should order the hit in January?
