reflecting on the immunity decision a bit, what the Court seems to be saying is that every element of the executive branch is at the President’s disposal, no matter what he wants to use it for. his motives don’t matter. the office is a weapon to be wielded however he sees fit.
I know this is tongue in cheek, but the point is that the limitation is the scope of the office as the Court sees it. within that scope, it’s open season. so under the majority’s logic, for example, there’s really no limit to what the president could use the military for.
Clearly if we want to punish a president for ordering protestors be shot, the only answer is through the ballot box, which will certainly be respected and honored.
Maybe the current president should order the concurring members of the court shot and appoint a new set with enough sense of self preservation to recognize no one should be above the law
Who will impeach him? He can just order those people killed as well.
Personally, I think this sounds like a bad way to set up a democracy but since that is what the court has declared is the law of the land…
Honestly? That's the best thing Biden could do. Order all the traitorous judges and politicians to be jailed/shot and replaced and then get himself impeached.
This way democracy could be reinstated and at his age, it doesn't matter anyway if they try to jail him.
And he could even pardon himself.
