Donald Trump wants to stop a lawsuit against his Truth Social company by arguing that, while he's president, he should be immune from any civil suit filed in state court.
Summary
Donald Trump is seeking "temporary presidential immunity" to delay or dismiss a civil lawsuit filed in Delaware by co-founders of Trump Media & Technology Group, who accuse him of blocking their full stake in the company.
Trump argues that defending lawsuits during his presidency would distract from his official duties, citing the burden of managing numerous pending cases.
His legal team claims state court lawsuits undermine the presidency.
This effort follows broader Supreme Court rulings expanding presidential immunity, though critics cite concerns over accountability.
This dude basically got no punishment and yet still wants to not have to face consequences. He’s got a CVS reciept of felonies and was completely let go of any punishment from the last thing and he’s still mad?
Exhausting, and imagine if a Democrat did this shit.
I mean take literally any of these executive orders and swap them for a democrat. We’d all still be pissed off and conservatives would be absolutely RABID.
I’m no political scientist or savvy follower of politics, but isn’t there a paragraph or two in the Declaration of Independence about our right (duty even) to overthrow such dictators…?
Yes there is. Or there can be. A monarchy doesn't automatically mean the King/Queen actually has power.
The Netherlands, for example, is a monarchy, but is a parliamentary representative democracy.
I think monarchies are ridiculous, we should just get rid of it. But you definitely can't call Willem-Alexander a dictator.
citing the burdon of managing numerous pending cases.
It's so easy to not have numerous pending cases against you in the first place. I want nothing more than for this dipshit to be stuck in court defending every one of his illegal actions taken the last 55 years. Couldn't happen to a better person.
Looks like someone needs to take up the mantle of the world's sexiest man alive, User4616250, after he gets out of office either by force or otherwise.
That state of affairs -- President Jefferson's nightmare -- dishonors the the Presidency and debases the state courts that purport to control his actions,"
That ship fucking sailed under George w bush, that shit was set on fire with the first 4 years of trump
There is no honor to be found in this presidency anymore, not for the next 8 years
