Rudy Giuliani says Barack Obama’s claim to “presidential immunity” may not protect him from potential legal issues related to the Russia investigation, as immunity only covers actions within a president’s term. Giuliani states that any involvement Obama had after leaving office could expose him to indictment.
Not only is Giuliani a lawyer and American legal heavyweight, but he’s also experienced Democrat lawfare aimed directly at him.
Now he says Barack Obama will attempt to hide behind “presidential immunity” in the Russia Coup investigation….but there’s one major problem that could open the door to an indictment.
You’re not immune for the rest of your life as president,” Giuliani said.
Speaking with David Harris Jr., he laid out Obama’s potential legal risk.
Obama becomes a problem because he will invoke presidential immunity,” Giuliani explained.
“The decision the Supreme Court made that that helped Trump. The acts are kind of different… but there’s a problem for Obama.”
That problem, according to Giuliani, is the timeline.
“It continues after he’s president. So starting on January 1st, 2017, any participation of him in the conspiracy is not immune. You’re not immune for the rest of your life as president.”
In other words, immunity only applies to actions within a president’s term.
“So he’ll be immune if whatever allegations against him are contained within his presidency,” Giuliani said.
“But if he’s helping to assist over that three-year period that they pushed Russian collusion into 2017 and 2018, then he’s… of course, he could be indicted for that.”
