It's Over: Trump Immunity | Supreme Court | Biden v Trump.
FULL TRANSCRIPT
big day for the Supreme Court as the
Supreme Court has ruled on Donald
Trump's immunity and let's just put it
straight Donald Trump calls this a win
social media that supports Donald Trump
calls this a win Chuck Schumer calls the
Supreme Court decision a Maga decision
and the reality is somewhere in between
yes this is a win for Trump as there
could have been a ruling that suggested
presidents have no immunity but that was
not what was an expected outcome here
see what I always like to do is I like
to think of cops cops work for the
government and they benefit from
something known as qualified immunity
this basically allows them to be immune
from prose uh prosecution as long as
they're fulfilling their official duties
and it would be logical that this would
apply to the president as well qualified
immunity holds that if as long as
someone doesn't establish or or violate
rather clearly established law then
they're protected from harassment or
distraction of litigation the purpose
there is really to allow officials in
government to do their job without
getting willy-nilly prosecuted all the
time and they're sitting in court all
the time uh and then they can't actually
do their Duty because they're sitting in
court defending themselves all the time
the whole point of qualified immunity is
hey you got a job to do some people
aren't going to like that you got a job
to do but as long as you follow the
Constitution you're good and so when it
comes to Donald Trump what the Supreme
Court here said is yes the president
does have
immunity criminal liability immunity
against any kind of criminal liability
for official actions on behalf of the
government but they can be held liable
for private acts unofficial acts this is
kind of like a cop who's on duty might
have qualified immunity but in their
personal lives don't that is totally
logical it's basically the same standard
now yes the decision was a 63 split so a
lot of folks are going oh this was a
conservative tilt this was a you know uh
this is a hacked job by Trump appointed
Supreme Court Justices but when I apply
this to where else in law we have
something similar in this case law
enforcement for my analogy this ruling
actually is broadly in line with what
you would expect that the same immunity
that cops get is the same immunity that
a president gets so now the debate comes
okay well are you acting on behalf of
the government and are you acting in a
manner that is consistent with your job
right if you're going above and beyond
your job and doing things that violate
the law uh that aren't reasonably in
line with your job then that qualified
immunity goes away some examples now
Donald Trump is able to protect
conversations that he has in official
business so in talks with Mike Pence or
in talks with the Department of Justice
or in talks with his staff emails text
messages phone call records uh memos
notes minutes for meetings all that
stuff could be protected under this
immunity ruling this makes it a lot
harder for prosecutors to try to put a
case together against Donald Trump and
this is why folks are seeing this as a
win for Trump because now prosecu like
Jack Smith have to make an argument that
hey well you violated the law and we're
going to find proof for you violating
the law Jack Smith's charges just to
remind you against Donald Trump are
conspiracy to defraud the US conspiracy
against the right of Americans to vote
obstructing an official proceeding and
conspiracy to do so for first of all to
get those conspiracy claims you're going
to somehow have to get evidence that
there was any conspiracy you're going to
need access to phone records emails text
messages conversation minutes well if
that's now all protected under immunity
those conversations under official
business it's going to be really hard
for Jack SM Smith to get anything on the
conspiracy front so then it just comes
down to what did Donald Trump publicly
say on frankly January 6 and you know we
had quotes like we're going to fight
like hell but then we also had quotes
like we're going to peacefully
protest so there's like fighting like
hell for your Constitution that doesn't
necessarily mean punching people in the
face with
polls uh and not not to be confused with
voting polls I mean like met metal
polls uh and then there's you know maybe
that's not even punching might not even
be the right word right but but that's
maybe not is is that what Trump meant
when Trump says fight like hell did he
mean whack somebody with a pole or did
he mean you know we're going to we're
going to make our voice is heard okay
that now gets debated and Jack Smith
just basically got limited on what kind
of text messages he could get between
Trump and Ivanka let's say or Trump and
Pence to see where Trump's head was you
know if there was a text where Trump's
like ha look at them beat up Congress
for uh uh not uh electing me this is
exactly what I wanted them to do well
that would be a Smoking Gun I don't
think Trump would be dumb enough to
actually put that in writing but that
would be a Smoking Gun that would really
help Jack Smith now Jack Smith can't
even look so that's why this is being
cast as a win for Trump now is this
really in my opinion like some magga
immunity ruling where you have sod mayor
going oh now the Trump you know or any
president could do some you know illegal
hit squad organization with Navy Seals
and and could kill anyone they want with
IM you know immunity well no I I
personally don't think so because now
you could be arguing that a president is
violating clearly established norms or
laws were going above their Call of
Duty not to make reference to the video
game Sorry although it is a good game
and there are way less as far as I'm
aware cheaters in Call of Duty than
there are in Rust in Rust everybody's a
cheat it's it's so toxic it's just bad
but anyway going back to politics which
is the point of what we're talking about
here right after I mentioned life
insurance you can get life insurance in
as little as 5 minutes by going to met
kevin.com lifee if any of this stresses
you out it's a paid promotion SP it's a
an affiliate of the channel but anyway
let's think about this the Justice the
justice department at the top of it
basically the uh uh the Supreme Court or
the top of the justice system what they
really did is they just sent the hard
work back to the lower courts like look
official mostly immune as long as it
follows the law non-official not immune
now you go figure out what's what okay
so this is then where lower courts are
going to have to decide did Donald Trump
inside
violence was that speech that campaign
speech an official speech or a
non-official speech all of those things
are going to get thrown to the lower
courts the lower courts will have to
decide on those without being able to
get a lot of conversation evidence so
they're really just going to have to use
public information and then the lower
courts would have to rule find Donald
Trump guilty basically based on you know
uh based on public information that we
have which seems like it's going to be a
stretch and even if they do
the odds are would just end up getting
appealed right back to the Supreme Court
so this stuff is going to be going on
for years we're going absolutely nowhere
with this anytime soon so in my opinion
if I had to put this on sort of the
scale of is this a trump win is this a
Maga win is this you know a a leftwing
wing well it's obviously not a leftwing
win I don't think it's 100% you know
Trump win because you you do still have
some potential risk but it's probably a
70% Trump win uh and so and I think the
comparison to Law Enforcement Officers
is useful uh because it does preserve
something that's pretty well understood
in courts today that hey as long as
you're doing things that are reasonable
you're immune because we don't want to
distract you from being able to function
uh at your uh workplace because you're
constantly being harassed uh or you're
fearful of being liable for actions that
you're doing on behalf of the United
States so excuse me those are going to
be the questions none of this is going
to happen before the election uh the
next thing that happened now is we're
standing by to see
if well quite frankly Joe Biden is going
to make an announcement on July 4th
that's my anticipation so far things
seem pretty quiet in Camp Biden uh but
we'll see how that goes and in the
meantime Donald Trump is already
starting to cheer uh about how much of a
win this is and they're fundraising on
the back of this but then again you know
that almost no matter what the rule
ruling would have been Donald Trump
would have been cheering uh fundraising
over this so uh we can actually look at
some of the uh messages here Donald
Trump's today's historic decision by the
Supreme Court should end all of Joe
Biden's crooked witch hunts against
me uh including the New York hoaxes the
Manhattan scam cooked up by the Soros
spack da Alvin Bragg racist New York
attorney general Trish James Shameless
attack on the amazing businesses I have
built and the fake Berg off cas
proud to be an American solid scotus
ruling says Trump Jr I'm sure the
corrupt prosecutors and DC judge will
work overtime to continue their law fair
it's all they have big win for
Constitution and democracy proud to be
an
American uh yeah and then they talk
about some older information here about
the debates so that's uh that's a little
bit here from the uh Trump Camp I seen
some
comments from the
left uh but uh there is a new ad from
the Biden admin and it's probably going
to be worth watching so let's just to
balance this out let's go ahead and give
it a listen here uh it comes with the
caption folks I know I'm not a young man
but I know how to do this job I know how
to tell the truth Donald Trump does not
watch our new ad keep in mind both of
them lied during the debate I mean we
fact checked it live while we were
covering it and both of them said things
that were a little loony uh you know
like killing babies after they're born
as a form of abortion that's Looney uh
you know the the Biden the economy was
flat when I took over no it wasn't uh
you know but then also you know both of
them were responsible inflation so so
there're just lies on both Sid so I
always think it's a little soft when one
side's like the other side's a liar yeah
both sides lie it's just a matter of you
know what do Americans think about the
long-term direction of where we want to
go in the future and uh who do whose
lies do we believe or less important all
right let's listen in
here did you see Trump last night I mean
sincerely the most lies told in a single
debate he lied about the great economy
he created he lied about the pandemic he
bot and then his biggest lie he lied
about how he had nothing to do with the
Insurrection in January
6 mind you this is the teleprompter
version of Joe Biden at the uh North
Carolina rally in Raleigh North Carolina
we all saw with our own eyes we're going
to walk down to the capital and I'll be
there with you we saw a police being
attacked the capital being rans sack he
did not a single thing to stop it
nothing I In fairness it was a little
slow Donald Trump's response but
eventually he did come out and suggest
hey go home everybody should go home
it it just it came a little late I I
I'll give I'll give him that but to say
Donald Trump did nothing is also a lie
uh and again you know this this idea
that uh the economy was flat when Biden
took over which Biden saying Trump lied
about the state of the economy is also
untrue the economy is growing at over a
16% Pace in January of 2021 so like like
I say they they both lie it's like it's
like politician and lie like go together
you know folks I know I'm not a young
man and I know how to do this
job I know right from
wrong I know how to tell the
truth and I know like millions of
Americans know when you get knocked down
you get back
up I'm Joe Biden and I approve this
message hey you know it's it's exciting
right like if you're a Biden supporter
you're like hell yeah you know that's a
great ad awesome look at entic Joe uh
the frustration that I have is it's it's
teleprompter Joe uh and and you know I
don't mean that as an insult I think
some people think it's like oh you're
just anti- uh Democrat or whatever no I
I think there are plenty of great uh
Democrats that could lead this nation uh
but I don't think Biden can lead this
nation I think uh unfortunately the
teleprompter and the script writers are
leading the nation with Biden uh and so
that personally just makes me me
uncomfortable uh but uh but otherwise
hey I'll keep trying to bring as much uh
information as I can from as impartial
as a manner as possible uh I'll let you
know when something is a fact and when
something is an opinion so that way you
can make up your own mind thank you so
much for watching we'll see you in the
next one goodbye and good luck cannot
advertise these things that you told us
here I feel like nobody else knows about
this we'll we'll try a little
