The Federal Appeals Court of the District of Columbia gave the number one reason that Donald Trump should not be President of the United States in its strongly-worded ruling that presidents are not immune to the laws that govern all Americans. I have quoted the sections in which senior judges of high standing accused Trump of an unprecedented assault on our great American democratic republic...

"We cannot accept former President Trump’s claim that a President has unbounded authority to commit crimes that would neutralize the most fundamental check on executive power — the recognition and implementation of election results. Nor can we sanction his apparent contention that the Executive has carte blanche to violate the rights of individual citizens to vote and to have their votes count."

“Mr. Trump's stance would collapse our system of separated powers by placing the President beyond the reach of all three Branches. Presidential immunity against federal indictment would mean that, as to the President, the Congress could not legislate, the Executive could not prosecute and the Judiciary could not review.”

“Former President Trump lacked any lawful discretionary authority to defy federal criminal law and he is answerable in court for his conduct. The President used his seat of power to attempt to unlawfully overstay his term as President and to displace his duly elected successor, all which would violate generally applicable criminal laws.”

“Former President Trump’s alleged efforts to remain in power despite losing the 2020 election were, if proven, an unprecedented assault on the structure of our government. He allegedly injected himself into a process in which the President has no role — the counting and certifying of the Electoral College votes — thereby undermining constitutionally established procedures and the will of the Congress.”

"Trump appointed judges"? So you sound like you expect them to side with him because he appointed them. Tell the truth, are you saying these judges are traitors then? Or do you and your ilk just want something more to cry foul about, which you all would. You Dems throw that around all the time. Trump appointed judges. I remember when the Kavanaugh said Roe vs Wade was settled law and turned around a voted to kill it. What do you think changed his mind. All of em like, politicians flip on stuff all the time.

Tom, virtually every single "crime" the Democrats have accused/charged Trump of are either process crimes 'committed' before he was president, or they are some variation of "we disagree with what he did, because it COULD possibly lead to X, Y, or Z!!!" It is all POLITICALLY motivated, and nothing more. Just like his TWO fake impeachments. In the Democrat's and leftist's eyes, they are only chargeable crimes because TRUMP supposedly committed them.
This is the abuse of power to which we conservatives are object, and will continue to do so.
The President is immune to direct prosecution during his tenure to PREVENT the avalanche of of lawsuits and criminal charges that would come rolling down from all over the country if they were allowed, designed to politically smother the current President in litigation, which is exactly what the Democrat's would have done to Trump. You KNOW this is true! The same clauses are protecting Biden form the same thing now.
