“President Trump has not shown that the Speech reasonably can be understood as falling within the outer perimeter of his Presidential duties,” Mehta wrote in his decision. “The content of the Ellipse Speech confirms that it is not covered by official-acts immunity.”
Mehta also declared that Trump’s phone call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger asking him to “find” more votes “can only reasonably be viewed as the act of an office-seeker” and was an effort “to alter the outcome of Georgia’s election, not those of an incumbent President acting in his official capacity.”
“We’re very pleased that the court recognized that President Trump cannot avoid accountability for his conduct on Jan. 6, 2021,” Sellers said in an interview with Politico. “This decision, if it holds up, is going to pave the way to a trial in federal district court on these claims.”
Glad common sense won the day. But I have my doubts it will ever matter.
We have not been given much reason to hope, so we must hope without reason - and protect Sellers.
Civilly liable.
So, nothing.
Civilly liable is worse for him. They’d never let a president serve time but they don’t give a fuck off he’s bankrupted via civil process.
He’ll just use taxpayer money to fund it, we all lose.
Can’t, it’s his personal capacity.
Bankrupted? This fucker has done that a dozen times already.
Tie is assets around him and his family and throw them in the ocean.
