Turley and his opinion is right leaning, despite the claims of him being a Democrat. He's only on one network if that tells you ANYTHING.
Therefore his conclusions are no surprise as they come from the DJT network that has been forced to pay almost 800 million dollars for lying about Trump and his election.
Also, anytime a person is acting as a candidate vs a POTUS, that is what is being referred to here by Jack Smiths filings.
Despite bams claim of a 24/7 job, that's just not the case. Every time Trump went to a rally or held a election related speech, or raised money, or spent money on his election, or had conversations about his CANDIDACY in an election, that is NOT official acts of a president. They are acts as a candidate for office.
Despite your claim, the ruling was NOT 100% immunity RATHER
The current law on this subject is relatively simple: Until changed by the Supreme Court, a president may not be charged with a crime for anything he does while he is acting as president. Once he leaves office, a president may be charged for any crimes he may have committed in office, unless they can be characterized as “official acts” within the capacious framework of Article II of the Constitution, which outlines the powers of the presidency. There is no such category as “private acts,” just acts that are not “official acts.”
so candidate Trump can be subject to charges when not doing official acts of the office. (Like being a candidate for it instead.) Originally Posted by eyecu2

someone not so "right" agrees with Turley. Alan Dershowitz. a lifelong Democrat who voted for Clinton in 2016 and Biden in 2020. will probably vote for Harris.
do yerself a favor, eh? watch the first 5-6 minutes before you dismiss Dershowitz as a "right leaning biased expert"
he's liberal Democrat.
