Can’t Biden just kill him? He has Presidential immunity. The Supreme Court doesn’t give a fig and Biden can do whatever he wants since they take 4+ years to eventually kick the can and further delay their decisions. By that time, Biden may well be 106 years old.
Also, Trump has stated the Vice President has the power to certify the election results or not. So now Kamala can just usher Biden into a second term, “if she has the courage”.
Like Mike Pompeo said, “There will be a very smooth transition to a second Biden Presidency…”
My fuck, if only the Democrats had the balls to use the Republican's own tactics against them
"Oh so since a president is, according to you, immune to all laws even after no longer being president, then Biden can just order a hit on Trump and all of you? Because as long as Trump isn't arrested and left unable to run, that seems to be what you are saying. You have til the end of May :)"
That plus stopping the genocide would get my vote.
Why bother giving the ultimatum if you wouldn't benefit by them responding though?
That's a big mistake. Dekocrats don't lack balls to do what the republicans do, the just have a little bit of morals that the republicans completely lack.
Instead of threatening to kill Trump, should the SCOTUS rule in favor of immunity, Biden should threaten to kill SCOTUS. Then they’ll sit up and pay attention.
He'd be able to jail governors until they agree to amend the constitution to make the president subject to laws henceforth.
What a fucking joke.
I forgot about this horseshit
Smooth transition? I don't remember..
Mike Pompeo being a big piece of shit
Honestly, if the Tribunal of Six decides that Trump has total, unequivocal, blanket immunity at any point before Jan 6, 2025, Biden should just sic Seal Team Six on him. It would be 100% legal.
They won't, because that's insane. What they've done is make sure to the Supreme Court case will keep other federal trials on hold, and thus Trump won't have a guilty verdict before election day. Trump can keep running and perhaps win, and at the same time the obvious and sane answer to the case will still come down.
Immunity doesn't make something legal, it just protects you from prosecution unless it's revoked
The “immunity” that Trump wants the USSC to give him is effectively intrinsic, monarch-caliber “I am the law” immunity - effectively, he is working to get the court to declare that he is somehow just above the law in a categorical sense. We are not talking about immunity in the context of its understood and agreed upon legal definition in the United States.
Oh lol, I mean I think his legal team is just throwing everything at the wall and seeing what sticks
