Ex-President Donald Trump has asked a federal court to dismiss the election interference case against him, arguing his role entitled him to "absolute immunity".
Mr Trump's lawyers say his attempts to cast doubt on the 2020 election fell within his duties as president and are not subject to criminal prosecution.
The claims were "at the heart of his official responsibilities", they argue.


Oh well.

Here is an excerpt from the link you posted:

"In the criminal complaint against the former president, the special prosecutor acknowledged that Mr Trump "had a right, like every American, to speak publicly about the election and even to claim, falsely, that there had been outcome-determinative fraud during the election and that he had won".

However he alleged that Mr Trump went further than allowed and "also pursued unlawful means of discounting legitimate votes and subverting the election results".

How did Trump pursue unlawful means of discounting legitimate votes?

The point I’m making is that he has now admitted to having had an active role in it all.

I’ll let the judges decide if that’s legal or not, in American law.

From my perspective, a democratic leader cannot undermine democracy. And the claims have been proven unsubstantial. Yet he continues his rhetoric of stolen elections.

He thinks he's entitled to be President. Everything else must be lies or a witch-hunt designed to strip him of his entitlement.

Just think we used to sneer at entitled trust fund kids. He thinks E stands for Entitled to Everything and his Ego Excuses Everything.

That might spoil his simpleton I mean simple one eyed view and we can't have that, unless of course there's a conspiracy to uncover

He phoned state election officials and asked them to conjure up votes for himself that did not exist, we all heard him do it dummy.
A jury will decide if that amounts to attempted electoral fraud, stop trying to interfere with justice

Well he’s saying he was allowed to election medal by virtue of being the president in response to charges of election meddling. There are only two dots and you still cannot join them 🙄
Oh well another dense MAGA

No he said he had the right to speak out about the election being fraudulent.
What is an election medal?

I read it you idiot. Did you read this part?

He had a right to make false claims about the election. His crime? Exercising that right. You are such a retard!
