JESSE WATTERS (CO-HOST): I did a deep dive on this law. The Supreme Court -- please back me up, I'm begging you -- in '82, the Supreme Court says that presidents have immunity for what they do when they take official acts as president. And so if the president, the chief executive officer, he has the sole authority to execute and enforce the law of the land, Donald Trump will argue that "I was enforcing election fraud, I was pursuing allegations of election fraud. I was pursuing recounts, I was pursuing election challenges. I was pursuing alternate slants of electors." If you say that any other president wants to leave office, the following president can just come in with lawyers and indict the former guy? That's crazy.
That means Joe Biden can be indicted after he leaves in a year for child trafficking. That means you could indict Joe Biden for cocaine possession. That means you could indict Joe Biden for financial fraud. It's insane. Under this theory that the Democrats are pushing, you could charge Abe Lincoln with murder for prosecuting the Civil War. It doesn't make any sense. No one's going to buy it. I can't wait until it gets to the high court.
