Former President Donald Trump criticized President Joe Biden on Monday for calling for major Supreme Court reforms. Biden's proposed reforms include a constitutional amendment that would strip the president of immunity for crimes committed while in office, implementing term limits for Supreme Court justices, and establishing a binding code of conduct for the high court.
During an interview on Fox News, Trump accused Biden of not wanting to give up immunity, suggesting that Biden is seeking immunity due to his handling of issues such as the border situation and the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan. Trump stated, 'He desperately wants immunity. There’s no way he would write off immunity for a president.'
Biden's push for reforms to the Supreme Court comes in response to a recent ruling by the court that allowed Trump to claim immunity from criminal prosecution for certain actions taken during his presidency. The ruling, which was decided by a 6-3 vote with liberals in dissent, has sparked further debate about the role of immunity for presidents and the need for potential reforms within the judicial system.
