Above the Law?

Some say Trump is above the law. I've been surveying a chat room I frequent. Curiously NONE of the so-called "conservatives" in the room will say that Trump is NOT above the law.



It must mean that they agree with Trump and with Trump's lawyers that that he IS above the law.



"Trump’s lawyers say he’s above the law."

"A sitting president is almost certainly immune from criminal prosecution, and the only mechanisms to remove him from office — impeachment, the 25th Amendment, or voting him out the old-fashioned way — are political, not legal, procedures.

In that sense, the president of the United States really is above the law, at least while he remains in office."

"The president and his legal team have now claimed that Trump can start or stop any investigation, that he can pardon himself and that the special counsel is unconstitutional. In other words, the suggestion is that he is completely above the law."

Doss likes to ask his questions in such a way that a simple yes or no would be the wrong answer.



Tjbob: I have NO problem answering "no."  Trump is NOT above the law. Now YOU tell us why "No" is the wrong answer. This should be good. *S*
