Appeals Court Swiftly CRUSHES Trump's Hopes...AGAIN - Meidas Touch



Trump has LOST AGAIN on IMMUNITY, with the Chief Judge of the DC Court of Appeals finding that Trump has NO presidential immunity from other CIVIL claims brought against him for Jan6 injuries suffered. Michael Popok of Legal AF explains why this decision is “unpublished” and if the US Supreme Court will use the ruling as part of its future decision as to whether Trump has immunity from CRIMINAL prosecution. - 12/29/2023.

If universal presidential immunity were a thing, no order issued by the President could be illegal. So he could order the bumping off of enemies, opponents - anywhere! Not going to happen.

He still says he "won," despite all the investigations he financed which determined that he did not and told him so, but his lie that he's "still" president is one of his talking points intended to incite his deluded "followers." And that authoritarian power is his plan if he ever returns to office.
