He can argue anything he wants. Presidential duty doesn’t involve plotting coups against your own country, kind of the opposite really.
And before you start putting stock in Trump allies requesting things, remember the 60+ lawsuits they filed right after the election. They lost every single one, and for good reason.
I was just (somewhat poorly) answering the ‘why is this even an option’ question above, not trying to justify it.
Even if it does work, it changes nothing but the venue. They’re still facing state charges, and it’s still DA Willis and her team bringing them, it’ll just be a federal judge overseeing with a slightly larger jury pool.
My point wasn’t that it’s a way to avoid the charges, however it will work as a delay tactic.
