So you don't need obscure examples but the first one you reach for is highly political and applies to one of the most protected federal workers? No one with any habit of studying us law is under the illusion that the POTUS is bound by the same rules as other federal employees specifically because the law itself has many exceptions for that specific role. If there's so many examples then surely you can find another that isn't tied to the Trump administration.
- OnlineGladiator 7y agoI gave an example which you don't dispute and I referenced an entire book full of specific examples - it seems unlikely I'm going to persuade you of anything (the fact that you made an account just to reply to this comment doesn't make me think you're going to stick around either) since the goalposts keep moving. But sure - how about the Scientologists being given a pass for tax fraud, extortion, and a litany of other illegal activities? Or is this another unfair example, because Scientologists are also untouchable by regular laws? My entire point is that the "untouchables" are the problem - there should be no untouchable class of people at all. The fact that the elected leader of the US is considered above the law is moronic. He should face higher scrutiny, not less. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tax_status_of_Scientology_in_the_United_States https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tax_status_of_Scientology_in_t...
