We should enact a constitutional amendment reining in all of these immunities. Otherwise, the claim that "No one is above the law" is filled with loopholes large enough to drain the Constitution of its protections.
Only one President in our history has been criminally charged, demonstrating that immunity is unnecessary. In effect, the Supreme Court's decision in Trump v. United States overturns U.S. v. Nixon. In the Nixon case, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled that President Nixon had to comply with a subpoena. If the President is immune for Presidential acts, then he cannot be forced to turn over documents to prosecutors. The Robert's Supreme Court did not have the fortitude to admit that it was overturning U.S. v. Nixon.
Granting the President immunity is even more dangerous than granting immunity to judges, prosecutors and police officers. The President of the United States is the most powerful human being on the planet and does not need any additional immunity or protection from prosecution.
