"The President might ignore laws on term limits, so we need to make laws that say he can't be held responsible for his actions".
That's clearly insane.
- InTheArena 2y agoThis would not fall under the official powers that he has?
- HaZeust 2y agoWho cares? Now we have rulings that say it can't be enforced if it can be convinced that the action of avoiding your term limit can be an "official act" in times of unrest, urgency or doubt. One must understand that the more safeguards we have to enact retribution in these cases, the better. You're not supposed to point to one after loss of another - you're supposed to point towards as many as possible. Before today, the courts were the one we pointed to the most, and they are no longer nearly as much at our disposal as they were before this morning.
