      Whilst technically immune now, assassinating them is still extremely polarising and likely to make martyrs, forever. And they won’t be able to justify the consequences of their decisions.

      Re-arresting them constantly however, from the oval office, interfering with their civil liberties… They themselves would have to describe how it’s not an official act, and why the president shouldn’t be immune.

      The moment they make a ruling… destroy their property, seize their assets, etc… Make their lives a living hell.

      It’s still polarising, but makes them feel the consequences of their actions. And they’ll have to justify it in the public court of opinion for everyone to see to why this is a good thing.

        I’ll take dead martyrs over actively corrupt figures of absolute authority any day any how.

        Would those who said president can kill anyone after being killed by president be martyrs?
