'Almost impossible to overstate how appalling' Trump's arguments are in Supreme Court case [View all]

[Soph0571]

“Trump believes he should be excused not just from congressional oversight, not just from criminal investigation, not just from questioning by the press, but even from politics itself,” Waldman writes, adding that it’s “almost impossible to overstate how appalling the arguments by Trump’s lawyers have been. They have claimed kingly powers for the president — that while he is in office he can’t be prosecuted or even investigated. That, they say, applies to both Congress and prosecutors.”

I have an idea. If the court decides that indeed America has a King rather than a President you should all apply to become part of Britain again, after all our Queen would be so much better than your king...

Seriously though surely even his most ardent arse kissers in SCOTUS are not going to rip up the Constitution. I mean I thought America was built on the principal that monarchy and absolute power suck hugely...
