Let me ask you, if Biden were to find out your identity and claim your postings were hate filled and a danger to the social order and you suddenly found your house surrounded by demonstrators, a few of whom destroyed your garage and patio, would you accept that he was immune from prosecution because he was POTUS identifying a hater who was a danger. Now I don’t believe Trump’s speech was a criminal act. But I don’t believe in the idea of presidential immunity or as Nixon put it, presidential sovereignty.

You didn't ask me, but he would have to have broken the law to have committed a "high crime or misdemeanor," then impeached and convicted by Congress, and could at that point face charges. But I see libel or slander, which are lawsuit material, not jail time. For criminal charges, he would have to have hired the mob or been part of it--and of course be convicted of the crime by Congress and busted to private citizen for that, in order to face criminal charges.

Of course he wouldn’t be immune in that hyperbolic situation. [SMH]
