U.S. presidents cannot be prosecuted for selling pardons or assassinating political rivals through SEAL Team Six, personal Trump lawyer John Sauer argued Tuesday.

    Does Trump know this ruling could end with Biden legally ordering his assassination? His opponent is President right now.

      I think Trump’s betting on the Supreme Court dragging their feet long enough to where Dark Brandon cannot Dark Brandon, but Trump can just assassinate anyone who says he can’t be a 3rd term president.

      The important question is, if this ruling goes through, will Biden understand the implications. And will he have enough balls to pull the trigger.

      Oh look at me, fantasizing about Biden murdering Trump. Oopsie!

        No oopsie here, it’s double jeopardy after the GOP feigning victimhood for years on end. Play games, win prizes.

      Oh come on now, we all know full well that there is an asterisk somewhere. The fine print reads “Republican presidents only. These special rules don’t apply to Democrats, they have harsher rules that aren’t written we just call them like referees when we see them.”

        I mean, and this is all alleged mind you, Biden could use the threat to American democracy to assassinate Trump and there are many people who would be okay with that since Trump IS a threat to democracy.
