> im confused, how is a president immune from crimes? > seems like rather not how the legal system works the president is only subject to discipline through impeachment, not a regular trial by jury. if the president were subject to ordinary criminal charges, every prosecutor in the country could go after him on bullshit and nuisance charges, like obstructing traffic with his motorcade. it would make governing impossible and subject the higher authority of the president to approval from every local sherif in america.
