President Biden Asks US Voters To Stop Donald Trump After Supreme Court Failed To

President Joe Biden delivered a politically charged speech from the White House, criticising the Supreme Court's ruling on presidential immunity and denouncing Donald Trump's involvement in the January 6th riot.

Biden, who spoke from the White House in a politically charged speech, urged voters to reject Trump, calling the court's decision a "grave injustice" that makes it unlikely Trump will face trial before the November election.

“The American people must decide whether Donald Trump’s assault on our democracy on Jan. 6 makes him unfit for public office in the highest office in the land. The American people must decide if Trump’s embrace of violence, to preserve his power, is acceptable,” he said.

Perhaps most importantly, the American people must decide if they want to trust the ... presidency to Donald Trump.”

The remarks, in which he read from a teleprompter and took no questions from journalists, came amid questions about Biden’s ability to campaign and hold office after a debate in which he seemed to lose his train of thought and struggle to respond to Trump.

The Supreme Court, in a 6-3 ruling, narrowed the case against Trump for his alleged efforts to subvert the 2020 election and stay in power.

Biden said the court’s decision would “fundamentally” change the nature of the presidency, leaving presidents with unprecedented authority.

“Today’s decision almost certainly means that there are virtually no limits on what a president can do,” he said. “It’s a dangerous precedent.”

Biden’s no-holds-barred attack on the Supreme Court’s decision represented a departure from his earlier reluctance to comment on developments in special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation.

Just last month, after a jury convicted the president’s son Hunter on gun-related charges in federal court in Delaware, in a separate special counsel investigation, the White House seemed to acknowledge it was unwise or improper for the president to weigh in.

In court, Trump’s lawyers have already tried to capitalize on remarks by the president and press reports about the White House’s eagerness to see Trump prosecuted.

Those accounts have been fodder for motions seeking to dismiss the pending federal cases for selective prosecution.

Biden’s statement Monday is also sure to feature prominently in motions claiming it will be difficult or impossible to seat a jury to hear the federal election fraud case against Trump.

A White House spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment, but the president’s statement appears to reflect a conclusion that in the wake of Monday’s Supreme Court decision a jury trial in the Trump case in advance of the election is so remote that little reason remained for Biden to hold back.

Biden, who had been at the Camp David presidential retreat this week, gave the remarks after returning to the White House slightly earlier than scheduled.

The only reason Nigerians don't want Trump is because of the immigration.
Other than that, the world won't be at war if he was president.

Joe Biden and the Dems are crooked and criminals.

They were expecting the SC to disqualify Trump grin grin grin
They have failed. Trump 2024 is a goal.

The only people that hate Trump are the head slammers and Africans running from their disaster called government, that they helped rigged into power.

The Democrats are the nigerian version of APC criminals

The signs that Trump will clench another presidential victory are already writ large Biden should begin to pack his bags and baggage.Biden failed in the first presidential debate and U.S. presidential debate is key and a yardstick or barometer for whether election will be won or lost unlike in our climes where presidential candidates avoid and dodge debates.It was Obama's speech which let out YES WE CAN slogan that resonated with American voters and paved way for his electoral victory in 2008.

I am shocked and surprised that headless mobs are not attacking US Supreme Court and cussing out their Supreme Court Justices. In US, immunity covers you after leaving office even when there are proofs of criminal offenses against you and prevent your criminal prosecution. But some group of headless mobs believe in their own delusion that Nigerian judicial system is the worst on earth. Maybe US justice system is also cash and carry.
