What would be wild is if the "legal" justification they landed on was that the president specifically is immune but not the people under him. So you'd just have to hand Biden or Trump a handgun and watch them march up to someone and kill them because no police or military has the authority to stop the president
Obviously I don't want to live in that world but at least then we're living in a crazy movie dystopia which might at least be more fun to watch
Let's let Joe have it. He's old, he deserves it. How many fatalities can he even get before the long night takes him? 3? 4?
Come on, Joe, invite Tucker and Alex Jones to dinner.
Biden/Trump/Whoever is president could simply officially order one of his top officers to push a button that drops a hellfire missile on their political opponent and then pardon them. The President is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces and also has the executive privilege of pardon available to them at their discretion for any reason or no reason at all. I'm 100% sure the president will find somebody in the chain of command with morals flexible enough to obey such an order.
And since you can't go after the man himself because a corrupt SCOTUS is apparently poised to rule that they have immunity for "official acts" which is a nebulously defined term that can apply to literally any heinous act that they want, the country has essentially created a king by proxy.
And wouldn't anyone in the line of succession to the presidency just be able to kill all those in front of them to take the ~~throne~~ seat of president, thus becoming immune from the act of killing their predessesors?
