'Blockbuster' Trump legal setback is 'a big, big blow' to his 2024 run: legal expert
Tom Boggioni
March 04, 2023

A brief from the Department of Justice firmly stating that Donald Trump does not have "absolute immunity" is nothing less than a "blockbuster" and will open the door to a flood of lawsuits to be filed against the former president as he makes his third run for the Oval Office.

That is the opinion of former prosecutor Charles Colemen Jr. during an appearance on MSNBC's "The Katie Phang Show" early Saturday morning.

In the filing released on Thursday, the DOJ asserted, "Nixon v. Fitzgerald establishes a rule of absolute immunity for the president's official acts. It is not a rule of absolute immunity for the president regardless of the nature of his acts."

The loss of immunity will likely lead to the former president facing a slew of suits from private citizens, lawmakers and government employees who suffered damages related to the Jan. 6 insurrection.

and that it will significantly impact his ability to run and win. Ok with me.

1. I'll believe it when I see it.

I'm getting more and more nervous the less and less likely it will be that he will be indicted for the half-million crimes he has committed, or to simply do the Universe a favor by dropping dead where he stands.

Fortune failed to endow him with good looks, intelligence, compassion, empathy, competence, grace, manners, and insight.

But he was given an almost overwhelming amount of good luck, little of which seems to be running out on him as time goes on.

2. This is his fourth run not third

(Technically 6th but two of them were unofficial).

Trump has officially run as a candidate for president four times, in 2000, 2016, 2020, and 2024; he also "unofficially" campaigned in 2012 and mulled a run in 2004.

3. No matter how many private law suits

he has to run. The private law suits are for his attorneys to handle.
