"Trump Pushes for Total Presidential Immunity Despite Crossing the Line"

TL;DR Summary
Donald Trump posted an all-caps rant on Truth Social, claiming that presidents should have total immunity from any crimes they commit while in office and that people need to accept it. He compared his situation, facing over 90 felony charges, to the debate around police misconduct and argued for immunity from criminal prosecution for his actions while in office. A DC appeals court is currently weighing whether he has immunity, with Trump's lawyers arguing that a former president should answer to the courts, not to Congress.
