I don't see how Presidents don't have immunity while in office, at least for the duties of the job. Now, if they run out and shoot someone dead on the street, that's a whole different kettle of fish. For the past criminals - lots would fall outside the scope of the office, imo.
So what about drone strikes that shoot people dead on the street?
I am okay with Solemani being taken out, ring and all.
But this is a slippery slope.
How do you define what falls within the scope of office and what doesn't? We're not talking about a full-time employee who has a side hustle. When serving as president I would assume that every single minute of every single day for the entire term in office is considered being on the job and within the scope of office.
I just don't see how you can split it up. One is either president at all times during their term or they are not. Once the term ends, the position of president ends.
The saddest part of this entire discussion is that we assume that presidents can be bad people and do bad things.
When I was growing up I had the position of president so high on a pedestal they could do no wrong. Part of that was childhood innocence and naivety, but I also think the world has changed.
I think the IC's blackmailing and selecting politicians has changed everything.
I see your point. However, there are still things so far out of the scope of the presidency, like pedophilia. What are your thoughts on that? There has to be a way where it isn't just carte blanche whatever you do.
I think the office of the president is truly a unique position in our nation. It should be reserved for only the highest quality people.
This has worked for a long time.
I truly believe that if we have free and fair elections that only the very best will rise to the top and we will be proud of our president's character.
We all see how corrupt the government and especially the IC has become. This needs to be fixed or our nation will collapse from within. We will have far bigger problems than worrying about the president's behavior. Our nation will be gone.
