Washington Post??? Shit dude do you have any standards?

You and I both know you're full of shit, and, considering the things you regularly drag in here from various heaps of refuse you frequent, I recommend you shut up about standards—in which respect WaPo is miles ahead of your preferred sources of alt-right fearporn—and instead consider the dangers of a President that believes he can't be investigated for murder.

I should have added that while a sitting President does not have immunity from investigation, s/he does get shielded by various kinds of executive privilege as well as federal supremacy. That's hard for state authorities to maneuver around. And of course any investigation by federal authorities under the Executive Branch (basically all of them) is actually at the President's discretion.
