President Donald Trump arrived in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday morning for a hearing on the issue of presidential immunity. The president had announced that he would be attending the arguments at the Federal Court of Appeals this week on Truth Social.
On Tuesday, the president rolled up to the courthouse in his motorcade, as law enforcement blocked the street from both sides to allow his safe entrance into the building.
Trump explained on Truth Social on the issue of immunity, “I wasn’t campaigning, the Election was long over. I was looking for voter fraud, and finding it, which is my obligation to do, and otherwise running running [sic] our Country.”
He also argued that stripping presidential immunity away from any president was like opening “Pandora’s box.” In other words, if the court were to rule that Trump did not have presidential immunity while acting as the sitting President of the United States, then Joe Biden wouldn’t be entitled to immunity, either.
President Trump wrote, “If I don’t get Immunity, then Crooked Joe Biden doesn’t get Immunity, and with the Border Invasion and Afghanistan Surrender, alone, not to mention the Millions of dollars that went into his ‘pockets’ with money from foreign countries, Joe would be ripe for Indictment.”
