'Lay off the drugs': Lauren Boebert's opinion on Trump immunity ruling goes sideways

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) waded into legal waters on Monday just moments after the conservative-majority Supreme Court gave Donald Trump — and the current president and presidents who will follow him — a stunning amount of immunity from criminal prosecution.As multiple legal scholars noted, the 6-3 ruling opened the door for presidents to engage in criminal activity that could be construed as official activities by the nation's chief executive. According to Boebert, the ruling is a setback for President Joe Biden which led multiple commenters on X to dig beneath the surface — deeper than the Colorado Republican did — and point out what she failed to grasp.According to the consistently controversial conservative lawmaker, "The Supreme Court isn’t 'protecting Trump.

I am hearing he may issue an “official” EO to declare convicted felons cannot be presidents. Biden is not ruthless. SCOTUS just said so. King Joseph of Scranton will also suspend the 2024 elections indefinitely and give himself another 4 years. Thank you SCOTUS""So he can do whatever he wants. Biden could have all the Republicans deported," Michelle Lynn helpfully pointed out.With that in mind. Caroline Meade was raring to go, telling Boebert, "Biden is immune!
