GOP Senators: Presidents Shouldn’t Have Immunity

“I don’t believe anybody deserves absolute immunity. You know, the fact of the matter is that’s the last thing I’d want to do. That sounds a whole lot like the position we got rid of when we fought the Revolutionary War. Kings have absolute immunity. I don’t believe presidents should.” – GOP Sen. Thom Tillis, speaking to CNN’s Manu Raju.

“If a president ordered the assassination of Manu Raju. I don’t think they should be held immune.” – GOP Sen. Bill Cassidy, in the same CNN piece.
