We’re watching US democracy dying right before our eyes.
If Biden and the Democrats had any mental coherency and a spine they’d be using this ruling to their advantage and fuck over conservatives before conservatives get into office to kill democracy and the opposition parties.
Seems simple enough…
Biden’s actions on the Southern border are official acts, he has immunity.
Trump’s actions leading to 1/6 are not official acts, no immunity.
According to you, a person thinking logically and operating in good faith. All an authoritarian needs now is the judge, who can be appointed by the authoritarian themselveswith little oversight, to say whatever they want to do is an official act. We have an irrefutable king again in other words
This reminds me of another circular argument: Anything the president does can be considered “acting presidential” simply because they’re president. You might’ve thought that shitposting on twitter was unbecoming of a world leader, but once a president does it, it’s okay for a president to do.
An argument to protect a fool from public criticism now doubles as a defense against legal action.
