“Donald Trump may talk about wanting to act as ‘a dictator’ if he wins a second term. But what Trump really wants is to be a king. The ousted former president’s demand that he be granted absolute immunity from prosecution for his many crimes … is radically at odds with the intentions of the founders of the American experiment. … Yet, as wrongheaded as Trump’s attempt to reinterpret the Constitution may be, the determination of key Republicans in the Senate — as well as their election arm — to support the former president’s infamy is even more un-American. And even more dangerous.” (05/01/24)
