- The US Supreme Court has heard pointed arguments on whether a former president is immune from criminal prosecution over acts carried out while in office.
Donald Trump, who is facing dozens of criminal charges across four cases, claims he - and all presidents - should have presidential immunity.
Trump's trial on charges he tried to overturn the 2020 election is on hold while the Supreme Court considers his immunity claim.
It may take several weeks to receive the Justices' decision, which will likely set a precedent for future US presidents.

I don't believe we've ever had to worry about this before.
How is this even a debate?
You're right he's so obviously immune it's not even funny
@@FlawlessP401That will make President Biden immune too. Great chance to lock this con man up.
@@FlawlessP401how is he immune?
Don’t recall Nixon being put through the same legal crap!
It's almost time for Biden to send in Seal Team six
Laughing.
how come every other president had no problem but trump!
Because Trump is a political outsider and exposed the swamp. So know they are trying to punish him, and make a warning to anybody else who might get the idea that they can challenge the swamps power.
Because trump isn’t part of the club, he highlighted the Washington bs and told many hard truths. He also achieved what he said he would and refused to start a war with Iran like the establishment wanted.
... Nixon, Clinton, Jackson, etc... Lots of presidents had challenges and were impeached
@@growtocycle6992 Not one of them claimed absolute immunity from criminal prosecution - until NOW.
That's the whole point. This administration is the first one to weaponize the legal system against a political opponent. That's why it's with the Supreme Court.
They should not be immune from breaking laws. They should not have 3 justices on the court they appointed ruling on this. This is also going to become a mess. What do we do when the supreme court says he did nothing wrong? This is a disaster for our future.
They should not have a Democrats supporting jurists and judges running Trump's New York trial either
Which will be a terrible disaster to the whole world. Trump is dangerous. And should never be able to get the presidency ever again. Doesn't look good, allowing a criminal to run your country. I feel your pain, America.
America is the laughing stock of the world.
No one is above the law
No one is above the law including Biden and associates
Well if there is to be one it may as well be the president. Non citizen diplomats get immunity, hmm.
@@davidcarp5935 Do you think presidents have the right to assassinate their political rivals?
Except Nixon, Biden, bidens son, Hilary, Obama, bill Clinton and good old Nancy that is! Eh?
@@unionjackjackson4352 and diplomats from other countries
Past 45 presidents not including Trump was able to do their job as a POTUS without absolute immunity.
Clown 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
They weren't thought they had it
MyDear3320,only one previous president has been politicaly persecuted by a presiding criminal regime to prevent them running for a second term and that is Trump.The socialist in power know they can't only win if they rig 2024 like they did in 2020,and these criminals say they're "saving democracy"?if you believe that bs your'e either incredibly dim,a communist or a criminal yourself.
Nixon ring a bell?
Ignorant fool
What would stop an immune president from eliminating the court? Let’s hope basic self preservation prevails.
No Total Immunity!!! Ever!!! Protect our democracy in this wonderful country.
Ok, then are you ready for Obama to be brought up on charges and sued? Are you ok for Biden to be arrested for not securing the border and help responsible for all the murders committed by illegal immigrants? Can't have it both ways!
Have you forgot about Nixon?
Unless it's a Democrat?
Oh please we have to have some kind of immunity otherwise democrats will waste money and time going after past presidents and future. Especially the presidents that democratic party has removed statues of
G. Sounds like you are in bed with Frump.
As soon as supreme court confirms supremacy of US President then Biden must send Seal Team 6 to pick up donnie IMMEDIATELY. 😂😂
remember that "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" and you only retain power for so many years before someone come after you
That’s not how this would work.
Lol. Biden won't be president for ever. If presidents don't have some sort of immunity, no president can escape being sued
"My memory is bad, so I can be President but not charged with a crime." Joey Cannibals Biden. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅..
For the last 200 years, we did not had problem until Trump... hmmm !!
Trump isn’t the problem, the problem is Biden ordering Lawfare attacks against him.
Democrats seriously learned to hate.
He's the worst of a bad bunch
Putin's puppet
"My memory is bad, so I can be President but not charged with a crime." Joey Cannibals Biden. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅..
Near all the people in the crowd even know when questioned why are they really there !
OUR SUPREME COURT IS A SHAM AND SHAME TO OUR COUNTRY.... SHOULD HAVE REJECTED THIS CASE.. NO ONE IS ABOVE OUR LAWS... INCLUDING DONALD TRUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!! PERIOD...................................
So Obama will be getting charged for ordering a drone strike on a 16 year old American citizen then will he?
But Biden is
Nancy Pelosi and most of the democrats are above the law
Yet Nixon was never prosecuted nor was Clinton
@@Mr.Sparkie1 What crime is Biden charged with? When did he argue he was immune from prosecution?
Shameful. The Supreme Court Judges who have sworn to uphold the Constitution will gladly tear it up to appease this Lowlife. Lost all credibility
Words of wisdom from a very wise father. Why should I vote or take the time to understand Government & Politics… Response: If you are not knowledgeable in these areas, and you vote for colors v candidate’s you decide your future. Why? Because there are two types of President’s those for People and those for profit…
Where is the crime
Obstruction of justice for lying about returning all the documents and instructing your employees to hide them from the warrants.
@@theprinceofpie The documents that Trump's lawyers were in a civil dispute with NARA over, those documents? And only a simpleton would think that Trump was hiding documents in giant boxes in his own bathroom hoping the FBI didn't ask to use the toilet, just how gullible are you people?
In the rabid minds of Democrats everywhere.
He’s literally recorded on the phone begging for the Georgia official to find him one more vote than what he needs to win. “Give me a break!” He says.
@@olorin4317 It's not a crime to ask people who's job it is to count votes to look and see if any of the votes haven't been counted, that's why the judge in the RICO case has already thrown that out, give me a break!
"Our former colonies are in a mess!" I know you didn't say that, but you COULD! Regards from the States!
stop calling him president and just call him king ,
Sorry mate, Charles III is your king, we just didn’t tell you!
Remember 1815.
dm, stop calling Biden President and just call him Master!
@@johncagle8355
You’re such a wannabe slave. 😂
I want trump his 3 not so Supreme Court appointees and justice thomas out! They are tainted!
It is a national tragedy.
How about immunity for other state officials? Didn't Trump say about Mark Miley that he should be executed? And how about we apply his argument to the private sector. Say BP makes an oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico... immunity for the executive?
Yep the Supreme Court has no balls to do the right thing and reject immunity
It is sad they have to debate this!! Corruption runs high if you have the right job in life!!! Sad sad sad 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢
Most of thr government is corrupt as are most corporations
If Trump doesn't have immunity. Then neither does JB. Remember JB's miss use of classified documents.
Neither does Obama and Cankles.
Vote chaos magnet.. Give him back the nuclear handbag.. What could possibly go wrong?

What crime?

To grope with immunity.
there is no equal to bbc
Trump,is ace and can handle the media very well. I enjoyed the Netflix series and realised how he became such a successful business man and networking guru. Has all the best mates from lawyers to accountants. He played the game of life well. He is also half British since his mother was Scottish
Trump : Biden should be locked up for his crimes
Also Trump : The president should have absolute immunity from prosecution
Which one is it Donny? You can't have both
Absolute rubbish!
I wonder what side the BBC is on when it comes to Trump...🙂🙃🙂...?
Well, they’re funded by the Clinton foundation as evidenced by the BBCs official website under “funding” so…
People in the UK HATE TRUMP.
@@WiredCountDuckula number one you’ve taken him out of context. That’s a very dishonest way to look at what he said. Number 2. The BBC is funded by the Clinton foundation. Want proof? Goto the BBCs official website under “Funding”. So there’s YOUR answer. 🫵🤣

Let’s hope they do find Trump guilty so that way we can prosecute Obama!
A complete collapse, blackout of Ukrainian territory was arranged for the unwanted pensioner PrezeZelensky and "Kharkovoblenergo" (russia could not do this) disconnecting the electricity for several months in order to close his mouth and freedom of speech. And everything is covered by law enforcement officers and the DBI of Ukraine.

Being with a girl & having sex & paying isn’t a crime
? Donnie wasn't charged with that. ?
No. It's not.. The crime was falsifying business records in an attempt to hide it from the electorate, in an attempt to win an election.
You have not understood the basics of this case have you ?
Thomas should not even be there
How come the Biased Broadcasting Corporation didn't show footage of the New York workers (hundreds of them) outside the court shouting in support of Trump when he arrived?
Because you're a Trumpist and a fake news troll
Well if there is to be one it may as well be the president. Non citizen diplomats get immunity, hmm.
So the jury isn't biased then? Will you accept the court's decision if Trump is convicted?
It’s obvious BBC is biased . Most people support trump now. The tides turned .
@@theprinceofpie Who said the jury isn't biased? I'm not American, it doesn't matter to me how much your country has become a banana-republic like Venezuela. Having a vegetable in the Whitehouse, what else can you expect?

suspiciously on a debating mood, 😂😂😂😂
The declaration of independence certainly did not hold that all men and women were equal before the law. It took years for people without property to be able to vote, decades for slavery to be abolished and over a century before women got the vote.
congress have immunity too while in session. no one is above the law or should there be below it either through prosecutorial abuse of incumbents
Do you think Trump will win?
NO.

Hey BBC you wanna show what happened in New York. President Trump was there, they loved him ❤
I thought that Trump can't get a fair trial in NYC since he was so hated. Does that mean you will accept the courts decision then?
@theprinceofpie NO. Because it's still a Democrat state. The is judge biased , every country around the world can see what's happening. We the people are waking up even more. Trying to take him off the ballet in some states. Then they SHOUT democracy. Have you got any thing to say about Fanni Willis in Georgia, corrupt Fanni Willis !
Trump 2024! MAGA! 🇺🇸🇵🇷
What Trump achievement are you most proud of is it the sexual assault or that stealing and giving away US secrets or maybe the fraud or the paying a pornstar hush money ? Maybe it's the undermining of the process of democracy by trying to steal an election he lost in a country that used to be so proud of it's democratic process.
What does every red hat have in common?
Answer: Hatred.
You can’t fight hatred, any more than you can fight love. It’s an emotion
How silly do you look, pretending that a collective group has a collective consciousness to rationalise you're own hatred for said collective.
Lol from an anti fascist (actually fascist) supporter yeah your input means alot 😂😂😂😂😂
You think it's a coincidence that only one letter stands between Democrats and Demon Rats?
Bull....its Biden /democrats/ lefts.....your so narcissistic ...you are the hateful ones, listen to your stupid selfs some times
Biden needs to send Seal Team 6 on a nighttime visit to these Judges to show them what could happen...
Ok then charge Biden!
In the US all people are equal but some people are more equal than others, that would be Donald Trump.

What's that got to do with Defendant Trump?
@@mitchhills4747 Because the guys up to no good with under age girls and class A drugs gets off with it, yet Trumps had how many legal cases launched against him? Most of which fail.
If they wanted Trump, you think they wouldn’t have already got him by now?
Ask yourself? What does political persecution look like? If we’re holding criminals to account I’m all for it, but that’s not what’s happening here. This is corruption. This isn’t democracy. Democracy has failed. It has, you can’t argue against that by any metric. So what’s this new age we’re moving into?
I don’t trust Trump. He’s one of them. He’s a con man. But if you’re not worried about his political opponents and their corruption than you’re simply bias or not paying attention. 💁🏼♂️ There’s people demanding Trumps head yet saying nothing but good things about the Bidens and Clintons. That’s wrong. If you’re for holding criminals to account hold them all to account. Otherwise your political bias is in the extremes.
I shouldn’t need to explain how truley dangerous this is.
This very segment was brought to you by the Clinton foundation. You need only to look on the BBCs official website under “funding” if you want my “source”.
What separates me from the many is that I don’t overlook crimes against children for political bias. You can include Trump on that. I don’t trust the corrupt media like so many and I know that the political system in the US and here are corrupt. And there’s proof.

What is the crime Trump committed in the hush money case?
Campaign finance violations for using campaign funds to pay the hush money and lying about it. Trump's lawyer Michael Cohen was already convicted for his actions.
@@theprinceofpie Really, because Hillary Clinton used campaign funds to pay for the Steele Dossier and then falsified business records to list the payment as a legal expense just like Trump is accused of doing, but she got let off with a fine and Trump gets 31 criminal charges instead, why is that?
@@theprinceofpie And Michael Cohen was sent to prison for perjury and tax evasion, campaign finance violations are misdemeanours. Why are you people constantly lying?
Falsifying business records in the first degree under New York penal law section 175.10
He was charged for the 34 times he was alleged to do it.
