Schrodinger's Immunity. It's unknown whether or not it exists until it's observed to be useful to the right people.

It is like arguing with a toddler - they KNOW, they are just trying to see if they can get away with it.

This argument is extremely disingenuous. The Republicans claim that a president has immunity unless investigated and impeached by Congress. And this is exactly what they are fruitlessly flailing around, trying to do. So this is not the gotcha the meme claims it is.

“A president of the United States must have full immunity, without which it would be impossible for him [or] her to properly function. Any mistake, even if well intended, would be met by 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.”

Please always add the person who is quoted. These are Trump's words, while we are discussing what many Republicans are publicly claiming. Of course Trump wants to go way further.
-
From criminal prosecution. Noone is arguing the POTUS can't be impeached. We shit on republicans for being ignorant and uninformed, but you're either being ignorant and uninformed or intentionally pedantic.

But with immunity, the president could simply assassinate anyone in congress who would vote to impeach
-
That's fine, they know a Dem wouldn't do that. When a Repub eventually does execute members of Congress, they assume they'll be spared.

Trump was impeached. Twice
-
He had two impeachment trials, and two acquittals, he was impeached twice and essentially found not guilty. Had he been found guilty in an impeachment trial that presumably would be the penalty to face compared to criminal charges. I am not arguing that it is a correct position, only that its the stated position.

It scares me for our future that you have so many downvotes for speaking openly and truthfully, while so many incorrect and nonsense takes are nothing but dozens of upvotes (ie Trump is barred from running because its his third term). That this platform seems to skew substantially more educated than most and seems to react this negatively to truth and positively to misinformation actually has me hoping I’m interacting with bots as the alternatives are scarier.

No no, not that President just their picks.
-
Well, most still don't believe he's president, so it's logical in their illogical worldview.
-
Which is funny because how is Trump running for a third term?

I think we have established that his Math is a special kind of math.

They act so stupidly one could think they're seriously mentally impaired. Like a 5 year old literally on steroids.

That's what it looks like from your perspective because you value honesty and integrity. They don't. They value white supremacism and hierarchy. Honestly and integrity are cast aside the nanosecond they conflict with hierarchy.
Consider all of their actions from a perspective assuming white supremacist hierarchies were more important than integrity. It all magically becomes consistent.
-
Funny you'd mention that...

-
The Republicans can investigate all they want. The President still has immunity, and if Trump's lawyers are correct, have them killed by Seal Team Six when they accuse the President.
-
The Democrats are playing “slappers only” vs. fully armed Republicans
-
Unfortunately career politicians like Biden respect and honor the traditions and norms. Even if Trump suddenly managed to give the sitting president 100% power to do anything that is physically possible, I don't think he'd order a nuclear strike on Mar-A-Lago.

If it weren't for contradictions they'd have no dic at all

GOP: "Illegal Immigrants are taking all our jobs."
also
GOP: "Illegal Immigrants are bleeding our welfare system dry."-
Classic tactic of fascists: Their enemies (read: scapegoats) are simultaneously weak and strong.

They don't think the president has immunity.
They think one specific former president has immunity.
No, they dont think Trump has immunity, they just want SCOTUS to deliberate on that question to delay Trumps case.
You could have stooped at "they don't think."
Are you taking about republican politicians or the voters?
