Supreme Court Ruling Gives Trump Dangerous Power to Pardon Those He Directs to Detain his Enemies: Glenn Interviews Constitutional Law Professor Kim Wehle Part 2
Manage episode 430828026 series 2777875
The Supreme Court has, in substance, converted American democracy into a monarchy. The court's holding in Trump v. United States enables a president to direct his attorney general to detain the president's political enemies without charges, without evidence, and without due process, and then pardon his attorney general for the crimes he committed at the president's direction. This destruction of the constitution moves American government in the direction of a banana republic. This is part 2 of Glenn's interview with Constitutional Law Professor Kim Wehle.
