According to Mediate, former President Donald Trump unleashed a barrage of posts on Saturday, showcasing a range of topics from his usual election fraud grievances to an unexpected threat to indict former President Barack Obama for “murder.” Trump, known for his frequent use of ALL CAPS and exclamation points, typically shares his thoughts on his Truth Social platform, a space where he often echoes conspiracy theories and misinformation.
In addition to his customary text rants, Trump occasionally uploads brief video rants shot at his golf properties, mirroring the intensity of his written posts. Moreover, he frequently amplifies messages from his supporters, some of which surpass the inflammatory nature of his own content.
On this particular Saturday morning, Trump’s focus was on the fraud trial that has been unfolding, where he made a notable appearance earlier in the week to address reporters. Among the various posts, Trump shared a message from Mike Davis, a conservative pro-Trump attorney. Davis suggested that the recent ruling against Trump’s presidential immunity defense might pave the way for Trump to indict Obama in the future.
So Democrat judges in DC suddenly pretend President Trump doesn’t enjoy presidential immunity, like all of his predecessors for 250 years?
Does that mean the Trump 47 Justice Department can indict President Obama for his extrajudicial murder of a 16-year-old American citizen?
Davis questioned the sudden denial of presidential immunity for Trump by Democrat judges in DC, proposing the idea that this decision could open the door for Trump’s Justice Department to indict Obama for the extrajudicial murder of a 16-year-old American citizen. The reference is to a drone strike that targeted the son of American citizen Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemen.
However, Davis’s theory seems to overlook the potential legal implications for Trump himself, given a similar situation during his own presidency. Eight days into Trump’s first term, a U.S. raid resulted in the death of al-Awlaki’s 8-year-old daughter.
In response to the recent denial of motions to dismiss based on First Amendment and presidential immunity claims, Trump has filed an appeal through his legal team, led by Judge Tanya Chutkan. The appeal seeks to contest the rulings and potentially alter the course of the ongoing legal proceedings.
