The job of President throughout the 20th century has involved committing crimes. If they gave that away, then all of these ghouls could potentially be prosecuted.
In the future, the former President could go to jail for the next version of Iran-Contra... and we couldn't possibly allow that to happen.
I wonder what the US would've been like if leaders were actually held accountable...
We wouldn't exist as the US.
