Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Sunday, April 28, 2024

"A former president," Donald Trump's lawyer D. John Sauer said, -- has permanent criminal immunity for his official acts, unless he was first impeached and convicted -- in Congress. It's also the opposite of what the Republican's lawyers said during Trump's second impeachment trial. In other words, Team Trump effectively argued in 2021, "Congress should leave such matters to the courts." It's now arguing, "The matter can't be left to the courts because Congress needs to act."

This shouldn't be a surprise.

Trumpers do this all the time as well, making whatever self-serving argument is needed at the moment regardless of what was said or argued in the past.

A significant majority of MAGA grievances were created by the MAGA morons before they were MAGA and they talked endless s*&^ about people (who they called socialists, communists, Marxists, anti-American all...) who pointed out the flaws or problems with their actions and politics.

The Founding Fathers would be embarrassed and shocked at how we are treating this traitor. From SCOTUS on down the line to Congress all the way to our DOJ invention. I imagine every single one of them is spinning in their grave, that this guy has not been dealt with. I'm sure they would've revisited the language of treason, at the very least.

These hacks should have been thrown out on their arses for having the hubris of raising completely contradictory arguments diametrically opposed to each other that if implimented would create conditions where no President could be held accountable for anything they do while seated in office as long as they can claim it was done as a part of their presidential perogative.

A Repubican president could claim presidential prerogative. A Democratic president would find some form of Congressional or SCOTUS rule that allows them to define what a "prerogative/official act" is...seems more and more like this is all part of their plan to cheat us out of our choices in 2024.
