Donald Trump on Thursday asked for the first time that the D.C. election interference case against him be dismissed, saying that everything he was accused of was covered by his “absolute immunity” as President.
A marked-up version of the Trump Org's 2014 statement of financial condition — entered into evidence — suggests Trump himself issued final approval for the statements.
The document included a handwritten note from Trump Org. Controller Jeff McConney: "DJT TO GET FINAL REVIEW."
US v Nixon pretty much allows for a quick dismissal. Engaging in a criminal conspiracy is not part of a President’s duties. Merely alleging fraud with no evidence to back it up is not a basis to undertake a conspiracy under the guise of ‘protecting election integrity.’ Chutkan will dismiss this fairly quickly. It’s an argument designed for SCOTUS, but I think Roberts will bring 1-2 others with him to shoot this down.
You can’t prosecute because he, in part, owns Truth ® That, and the prosecution totally ignores the well established legal principle of crossed fingers!
