Time magazine called the ex-president’s plans ‘an imperial presidency that would reshape America and its role in the world’

Donald Trump has warned that Joe Biden and his family could face multiple criminal prosecutions once he leaves office unless the US supreme court awards Trump immunity in his own legal battles with the criminal justice system.

In a sweeping interview with Time magazine, Trump painted a startling picture of his second term, from how he would wield the justice department to hinting he may let states monitor pregnant women to enforce abortion laws.

Trump made the threat against the Biden family in an interview with Eric Cortellessa of Time, in which he shared the outlines of what the magazine called “an imperial presidency that would reshape America and its role in the world”.

    Not he says Biden has “committed many crimes” but won’t say what those crimes are.

    That will give you an idea of what he’s going to come up with to charge Biden with. And he’ll make it stick too.

      That’s a common way of thinking in people with little to no ethics. They think everyone else is the same, and thus if you dig you’re surely going to find something.

        That’s a problem with the Republican Party as a whole and why they’re constantly projecting. “We would have done that, so of course they did.”

        Found guilty of genocide by whom? The ICC? The U.S. is not a signatory.

        And if you think Trump, of all people, would try Biden for being complicit in genocide, you need to pick different mushrooms.

          Oh I’m sure he would try Biden, and then be confused when he’s tried for the same thing. He needs a handler to not shove his own foot in his mouth
