    At what point does the left realize the strategy of indicting and prosecuting trump only makes him stronger?
    So you believe the alternative of letting these things go unchecked is the superior option? Why have laws if you’re unwilling to enforce them?

    I am pointing out the strategy is clearly not working. The “checking” of presidential power has always been with the voters. It has never been trusted in full to the courts.
    The checking of presidential power is part of congress’s job and is literally written into the Constitution. 
    trump supporters do not like this part because they like dictators.

    there needs to be a mandatory adult civics class at this point.

    Before leveling a personal insult, did you bother to read the 14th amendment, or are you just guided by your bias and hatred?

    was it that i called you a trump supporter? why would that be an insult if you support the guy? you should own it if you are.

    or was it where i said we need a mandatory adult civics course? not an insult, just an observation after being on the internet for the last 7 years.

      Four key takeaways from Trump’s presidential immunity hearing
    By Perry Stein
    January 09, 2024 at 12:27 ET
    Three judges on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit heard unprecedented arguments Tuesday morning on whether the U.S. Constitution makes former presidents immune from criminal prosecution.
    A U.S. District Court judge has already rejected Trump’s argument, which ultimately is likely to be weighed by the U.S. Supreme Court.
    Federal prosecutors working for special counsel Jack Smith have charged former president Donald Trump with four counts related to conspiring to obstruct the 2020 election results.
    Trump’s team has argued that the federal election obstruction case in D.C. should be dismissed, saying he was president at the time of the actions laid out in the indictment. His lawyers have also argued that prosecuting him would constitute double jeopardy, since he was already impeached and acquitted by Congress for his actions related to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.
    Here are some key takeaways from the hearing:
