What is this "presidential immunity," absolute no less?* The words aren't in the Constitution. Why should a president deserve, or need, immunity? Absolute powers like this sound like absolute monarchy, or dictatorship. The claim is a brazen power grab.
* on edit: oh yes, robust too. Forgot to include robust. After all, absolute isn't enough to describe this president's very very special immunity.

I recall reading that Stephen Miller, the neo Nazi in the Trump administration claiming that Trump as president had absolute power. Apparently he had not heard of the judiciary and legislative branches. So this sounds like something from him since he still works for the moron. Here it is:
Quote:
The end result of this, though, is that our opponents, the media and the whole world will soon see as we begin to take further actions, that the powers of the president to protect our country are very substantial and will not be questioned.

The tendency of the Trump movement towards robust absolute authoritarianism will not be questioned.
(Good place to bring up that Miller quote!)

Jan. 6 Committee Prepares to Subpoena Alex Jones’ Texts, Emails
Jones’ lawyers in a Sandy Hook defamation case fumbled three years worth of texts and emails. The committee would like to know more about any contacts with Donald Trump’s team regarding the Jan. 6 Capitol attack
https://www.rollingstone.com/politic...oeana-1392270/
Wouldn't it be a hoot if this clown's texts/emails brought down Donny and his crime family!?

Ex-president* expected to testify for New York AG real estate probe ‘in coming days’
https://money.yahoo.com/trump-news-l...054617627.html
Quote:
Former President* Donald Trump is expected to be questioned under oath in the coming days in the New York attorney general’s long-running investigation into his dealings as a real estate mogul.
The deposition could be a critical moment in the investigation of allegations that the Republican billionaire’s company, the Trump Organization, misled banks and tax authorities about the value of prized assets like golf courses and skyscrapers.
New York Attorney General Letitia James’ office said in May that it was nearing the end of its probe and that investigators have amassed substantial evidence that could support legal action against Trump, his company or both.
