The Rule of Law Applies to All, Including Presidents

It might seem obvious, but it’s crucial to acknowledge that presidents have legal immunity during their tenure, shielding them from prosecution for presidential acts. However, post-presidency, like any citizen, they must adhere to the law or face potential prosecution. This underscores that no individual, including past presidents, is above the law.

In the eyes of the law, they are no longer above reproach—they are subject to the same scrutiny and prosecution as any other individual. It’s a sobering reminder that power is transient, and accountability remains paramount, even for those who once held the highest office in the land.
