In the tax return fight:
Even if President Donald Trump shot someone in the middle of Fifth Avenue, New York authorities could not punish him while he is in office, the president's lawyers argued Wednesday.
Attorneys for Trump made the claim while arguing before a federal appeals court in their suit against Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance, who has subpoenaed Trump’s tax returns.
“Once a president is removed from office, any local authority” could prosecute him, Consovoy told a panel of three judges from the U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals. “This is not a permanent immunity.”
Judge Denny Chin pressed him on how the crime would be handled while Trump remained in office. “Nothing could be done, that’s your position?” he said.
“That is correct,” Consovoy replied.
IF YOU UNDERSTAND THE FACTS YOU WOULD UNDERSTAND HOW DESPERATE THEY ARE TO SAY HE CANNOT BE INVESTIGATED
Essentially turning he cannot be indicted into he cannot be investigated, which is insane especially for pre-president actions
by way of example, Clinton didnt even fight the issue
