This posting follows up on earlier commentary entered on January 3, 2024.
The Supreme Court ruled that the President is immune from prosecution for "official" acts done while in office. But what about "unofficial" acts?
That is the core of the argument rolling again in the court system as Donald Trump tries to cancel any court action against him. But the prosecution revised its case to remove references to acts that could be deemed "official," and refiled court documents to focus on "unofficial" acts.
Deep background suggests that anyone who has ever been President can commit anything and be free from prosecution because of total immunity.
If that be the case for Republican Donald Trump, would it not also be true for former Democratic presidents?
Be careful what you wish for.
You may get it.
