US President, enjoyed absolute immunity, none has been prosecuted for clear crimes they committed
During oral arguments on presidential immunity, Justice Thomas showed with a question that although absolute immunity is not clearly stated in the US Constitution for the US President, all of them have enjoyed absolute immunity, and none has been prosecuted for clear crimes they committed at home or abroad.
"In not so distant past, the presidents or certain presidents have engaged in various activities, coups or Operation Mongoose when I was a teenager, and yet there were no prosecutions.
If what you're saying is right, it would seem that that would have been ripe for criminal prosecution of someone," he told the Justice Department lawyer Mr. Michael Dreeben.
The government lawyer then responded, shockingly and outrageously, "So, Justice Thomas, I think this is a central question. The reason why there have been not been prior criminal prosecutions is that there were no crimes."
