Donald Trump warns ‘Obama, Bush, and crooked Joe Biden, would all be in big trouble’ if he loses presidential immunity

Hindustan Times  

Former US President Donald Trump has called out that if he loses presidential immunity, then no immunity for the “crooked” President Biden as well. “Without presidential immunity, it would be impossible for a president to properly function, putting the United States of America in great and everlasting danger!” he exclaimed in a Truth Social post. “If they take away my presidential immunity, they take away crooked Joe Biden’s presidential immunity,” he warned. He fears that “the Opposing Party, during his/her term in Office, can extort and blackmail the President by saying that, ‘if you don’t give us everything we want, we will Indict you for things you did while in Office,’ even if everything done was totally Legal and Appropriate.” And “that would be the end of the Presidency, and our Country, as we know it,” he declared, “and is just one of the many Traps there would be for a President without Presidential Immunity.” Trump pointed to former Presidents: “Obama, Bush, and soon, Crooked Joe Biden, would all be in BIG TROUBLE.” He argued, “If a President doesn’t have IMMUNITY, he/she will be nothing more than a ‘Ceremonial’ President, rarely having the courage to do what has to be done for our Country.” “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Amidst these keyboard battles, the 45th US president was physically present in a New York City courtroom, attending his criminal trial by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
