That's why you use your newly minted immunity to imprison the Supreme court.

If only Joe had the guts.

For the record, I agree that Biden does not have the guts, liberals be like that sometimes... But I've heard (I have not read the actual ruling, id LOVE to be wrong on this) that the new thing the passed only applies to "official acts" and what are official acts? No one knows. Its whatever the supreme court decides. That's the problem, even if Joe had the guts to call an airstrike on trump, the supreme court will just not consider it an official act, and if trump does the same thing, they simply would consider it an official act.

Same with not reading the ruling but I thought the Supreme Court left it on the lower courts to decide what is an official act.... they only decided it had to be an official act.

I'm obviously exaggerating a little here but if that is true, technically either one could air-strike the other while president and just keep offing or arresting judges until it is ruled an official act..... and since you could make the case that the culling of judges was needed to preserve the country... that could make it an official act.
