Democrat Makes Unhinged Demand Of Biden As Trump Rises In Polls

Radio host Charlamagne Tha God has urged President Joe Biden to imprison former President Donald Trump to "safeguard democracy."

“Biden’s in office, so all of these kingly powers that you’re talking about the president having, Biden has now,” he stated on the “Brilliant Idiots” podcast. “And he could use some of those kingly powers to protect democracy, but he won’t.”

Co-host Chris Morrow countered, suggesting that such an action would be an abuse of power.

“So democracy is really not at stake then. If democracy is really at stake and Trump is the existential threat that they say he is, you should do everything in your power to protect it,” Charlamagne argued.

“While also protecting the Constitution and democracy. You can’t sacrifice democracy to save democracy,” Morrow responded.

“Listen, if somebody got a bazooka on your block, you don’t show up with a nine, Chris. You got to go get you a bazooka,” Charlamagne claimed, suggesting Republicans would misuse the Supreme Court decision.

However, co-host AlexxMedia took the argument further by suggesting the president could “actually” order the former president to be killed due to the “threat” he poses to “democracy.”

“Or lock him up. We don’t even got to go so far as murder. Just lock him up. Lock him up. Throw away the key,” Charlamagne replied.

Morrow cautioned that such actions could backfire on the Democrats.

“Chris, they’ve already hit this man with 90 plus charges. He got convicted of 34. You know what? Boy, sometimes I want y’all just to be able to see an alternative universe,” Charlamagne retorted. “When Trump gets back in the White House, all the Bidens going to jail. And some Clintons. What are we doing, Chris?”

Charlamagne's view was echoed by former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner, who recently said the president should utilize the Supreme Court decision to shield the United States from a “dictatorship.”

“Will we feel secure in the knowledge that he didn’t take advantage of the lawlessness that the Supreme Court said is now ingrained in our Constitution, the lawlessness that a chief executive, a president of the United States, is allowed to exercise given the Supreme Court’s new interpretation of presidential immunity?” he asked.

“Will we feel good about the principle that President Biden exhibited by declining to use that power and giving over our American democracy to dictatorship? I don’t know,” he added.

Biden addressed the Supreme Court’s decision after it was announced.

Speaking from the executive mansion’s red-carpeted Cross Hall, Biden compared the high court’s ruling to giving Trump “the keys to a dictatorship.”

“This nation was founded on the principle that there are no kings in America,” he said. “Each of us is equal before the law. No one, no one is above the law – not even the president of the United States. But today’s Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity, that fundamentally changed. For all, for all practical purposes, today’s decision almost certainly means that there are virtually no limits on what a president can do.”

“This decision today has continued the court’s attack in recent years on a wide range of long-established legal principles in our nation, from gutting voting rights and civil rights to taking away a woman’s right to choose, to today’s decision that undermines the rule of law of this nation,” he added.

The U.S. Supreme Court issued its much-anticipated ruling on former President Donald Trump’s claims of “immunity” from prosecution as the fate of at least two federal cases filed against him hung in the balance.

The justices ruled 6-3 that a former president has absolute immunity for his core constitutional powers.

The Supreme Court determined that Trump cannot be prosecuted for actions taken as president if those actions were part of his official duties. However, he can be prosecuted for actions that were not part of his job as president. Lower courts must carefully scrutinize each action to determine whether it is official or not.
