    Trump has poisoned the nation and his party. All because he wants to be able to continue his life of corruption and greed on the grandest scale of all, where he can act like a King, and never be held accountable of his crimes, or never spend a day behind bars like other criminals. He calls all trials or investigations against him shams, Communist, corrupt, witch hunts, or any other way to deflect the blame from his criminal acts. How anyone believe this guy's lies is sickening beyond belief.

    Why any law abiding citizen or believer in Democracy would want any President to be able to break any laws they please is mind-boggling. This will open the doors wide open for corruption. This makes a mockery of the Constitution. Our founders didn't want our leaders to be Kings.

    When I’m dead it’s over. It’s not over yet to me. You and I can both do something about this…we can try harder. We could not take for granted what we’ve taken for granted (and rightfully so) for our entire lives.

    At this point, why couldn’t she? And that’s disgusting…but why wouldn’t she have immunity if the President does?

    When Benjamin Franklin said “a republic if you can keep it.” This is what he meant.

    The tools of our Constitutional Republic isnt a perpetual motion machine that just maintains itself. It requires an informed and involved citizenry. This is why I am so critical of those who just give in to cynicism and just place blame without getting involved.

    Yep, this is the exact kind of thing that Conservatives and Libertarians should be against and were against pre-Trump's legal issues.

    If you told them that the president could kill any 'enemy' as long as it was an 'official' act they would rightly be furious and against it.

    It really is sad to see that people are willing to throw away the principles and ideas of this country just in hopes that it helps their team win.

    No surprise that the bought-for maga supreme court justice whose wife was an early planner and driver of the insurrection would be the only one to push so hard to get trump off any charges. I am certain he will forget to report all the extra gifts and cash this ruling got him...

    my parents were terrified of Obama because they somehow thought he wouldn't leave office...they're gonna vote again for a guy who did exactly what they feared he would do. extrapolate from that what you will.

    This is the worst possible decision today. July 1st marks the end of the American experiment, imo.

    Sure... if everyone voted, its likely that trump wouldn't win. But I don't blame those that have looked at the maga supreme court's decisions including this most recent one and get discouraged. Hard to think your vote means anything when the heavy hand is pushing down on the scale...

    Not just their team... but one man, who has been convicted of multiple felonies and rape.
