Doesn't matter. The entire corrupt justice system continually gives this bozo every single possible way to weasel out of shit that no other person on the planet would ever be granted. Nothing is going to stick, all of the media attention about these cases is only hardening his support on the right. Our justice system is bought and paid for and he is one of the biggest contributors, absolutely none of the court cases are going to stick no matter how many things he may have done that are illegal. Anyone who thinks otherwise has had too much of the kool-aid at this point. Justice is dead and the highest court of the land is in his pocket. This is all for show at this point and it's only serving him and his base.
Vote like democracy and your country depends on it, because at this point it absolutely does.
So now he’s claiming that he had presidential immunity before he was president too?
One theory I heard was ultimately he'd argue that the conduct he's charged for continued once he was in office (e.g. he cut Michael Cohen a check while he was President) therefore his "absolute presidential immunity" should kick in and cover everything.
It's horseshit, just like the immunity claim itself, but really it's only meant as a delay tactic. Since it failed watch out for more attempts at delay. Either appealing the denial of this motion or something like a motion to withdraw as counsel from his lawyers after he fires them and tries to ask for 6 months delay to get new counsel up to speed.
He's claiming it makes him immune forever and always.
Delay, delay delay. He doesn't even deny he did the crimes, he argues that he is above the law. Deep in his pathological mind he knows he is a criminal though.
Take him to cleaner please
