President Joe Biden said he “can’t think of one” reason presidents should receive absolute immunity from prosecution, as Republican frontrunner Donald Trump has claimed.
To be fair, there seem to be many on the left that don’t get this either. I’ve seen people insisting that they won’t vote for Biden again because he didn’t enact a long list of Progressive desires.
They completely ignore that Biden can’t just singlehandedly declare new laws. He needs things to get through Congress. Then, he can pass them, but they can be overturned by the Supreme Court. With the 50-50 split Senate and the Republican controlled House, it’s difficult to get much passed. With the conservative Supreme Court, it’s hard to keep things from getting overturned.
If Biden had large Democratic majorities in the House/Senate/Supreme Court, then perhaps there would be a valid criticism, but even then blame wouldn’t be focused on Biden alone.
The whole leader != ruler thing seems to trip up a lot of people on the right.
