Description
Donald Trump is asking the courts to make up something that does not exist in the law: absolute presidential immunity against being prosecuted for crimes committed while in office. Both the trial court judge and a three-judge appellate court panel ruled that there is no such thing as absolute presidential immunity. Trump has asked the United States Supreme Court to put a hold on his criminal case in DC rather than let it move in the direction of trial. Trump's suspected goal is to delay the case until after the 2024 presidential election in hopes of winning the White House and then ordering his Attorney General to dismiss the federal cases against him.Glenn discusses why the Supreme Court should neither grant the stay/pause of Trump's DC trial for attempting to overturn the 2020 presidential election nor take the case of presidential immunity up on appeal.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support us and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
