Fox News host Sean Hannity shares his insights on the potential long-term consequences arising from the Supreme Court hearing on presidential immunity in New York v. Trump. According to him, the outcome of this case will not only affect current events but also have lasting implications for future prosecutions against presidents. The fundamental issue being discussed is whether a sitting president can be indicted for actions taken during their term or if they enjoy absolute immunity from criminal charges. Hannity raises questions about how such precedents could impact past and potential future administrations, including the possibility of charging former President Barack Obama over drone strikes overseas or Vice-President Joe Biden regarding casualties in Afghanistan’s withdrawal operation. While some judges on the bench appear to favor limited immunity for official acts committed by a president during their tenure, personal crimes would remain within the prosecution realm’s reach even when a head of state occupies office.
