2024 FL Senate race: on Crime


Marco Rubio: Courts are used to persecute and prosecute Donald Trump

I think that what the Supreme Court did is it clarified what the law is, and that is you cannot go after presidents for official acts and there's a presumption of immunity for quasi-official acts or semi-official acts. It is clear that we have reached an era where there are people in American politics who believe our courts are now a weapon that can be used against their political opponents. You look at their efforts and what they've done in the courts to persecute and prosecute Donald Trump.
