Trump posts all-caps rant telling people they 'JUST HAVE TO LIVE WITH' presidents who 'CROSS THE LIN

Quote
Donald Trump is once again claiming that presidents should have total immunity from any crimes they commit while in office — this time, with an all-caps rant posted to Truth Social.

And he says that people need to just accept it.

"A PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES MUST HAVE FULL IMMUNITY, WITHOUT WHICH IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR HIM/HER TO PROPERLY FUNCTION," Trump wrote on his social-media platform in the early hours of Thursday morning. "ANY MISTAKE, EVEN IF WELL INTENDED, WOULD BE MET WITH ALMOST CERTAIN INDICTMENT BY THE OPPOSING PARTY AT TERM END.

"EVEN EVENTS THAT 'CROSS THE LINE' MUST FALL UNDER TOTAL IMMUNITY, OR IT WILL BE YEARS OF TRAUMA TRYING TO DETERMINE GOOD FROM BAD," he continued.

Trump compared his situation — he's facing more than 90 felony charges across four criminal cases — to the debate around police misconduct, saying guarding against the "OCCASIONAL 'ROGUE COP' OR 'BAD APPLE'" isn't worth it.

"SOMETIMES YOU JUST HAVE TO LIVE WITH 'GREAT BUT SLIGHTLY IMPERFECT,'" he added.

So basically, Trump is letting Joe Biden off the hook for selling out this country.

I’m interested to see if his most dedicated of supporters here agree with him on this?

Donald wants us to overlook rogue cops.  That should play well after the next police controversy.

I've noticed over the past few months how the US media have refrained from plastering his geriatric rants.  This, coupled with a string of hit pieces on Haley and DeSantis, along with the pro-Trump general election polling data.  Wonder why they're doing that.   :pondering:

Well, MSNBC covered his statement, but their audience wouldn’t vote for Trump if you paid them

The tactic is obvious. We saw the same thing in 2022 when Republican candidates  polling better than their Democrat counterparts to the point that it look like a massive red wave was on the way

Then the Democrats unloaded as it got closer to the election, and that red wave turned into a red drip

Option one is how it normally starts. When pressed, it goes to option number three and they tell you that how “unserious” you are and you’re not willing to stand up for America

I actually think he's right in terms of Presidential actions, or you could end up potential criminalizing policy decisions.  So for example, suppose it wasn't a political rival but some foreign leader who was killed, and some prosecutor somewhere decides to prosecute the President for murder?  There has to be absolute immunity for official acts unless there is first an impeachment and removal from office.

But the all caps thing....I'm just sick of his sixth-grader mindset and behavior.

He's not thinking clearly about the cops.
The reality is NOT "all cops are good" or "all cops are bad."
Most officers DO try to do their jobs right.
But we need to always weed out the bad ones.

Why are the media picking on Haley and DeSantis more than Trump?
Their strategy might be to get Trump nominated,
because they think they can then get him disqualified.
