Here's the thing that gets me. If the precedent is that a sitting President can't be charged with a crime, then what if the President commits a truly obvious, verifiable crime while in office? Does he just get away with it scot free? (I'm assuming he doesn't have the sense to resign, which at least Nixon did.)
If so, then this guy could truly shoot someone on 5th Ave and not only would people still vote for him, but he'd be the one person in the country immune to prosecution for murder.
One set of rules for thee, but not for me, indeed.
As long as the Senate does not find him guilty in an impeachment trial, he will be free.
And the chances of the Senate finding him guilty in an impeachment trial = less than zero.
TRUE. he is the only person in the USA who can kill someone in plain view and get away with it.
