President Donald Trump, unbothered by clarity or logic, once again turned a simple question into a greasy smorgasbord of nonsense this weekend — proving that even at 79, he’s fully capable of dodging accountability while mangling basic concepts.
Aboard Air Force One, a reporter asked Trump to define what “absolute immunity” would mean for an ICE agent who shot and killed a 37-year-old U.S. citizen in Minneapolis — a question that ought to have had a straightforward legal answer. Instead, Trump went full chaos mode.
Trump’s first line was straight from the Fox News School of Evasion:
“Everyone’s seen it… A woman who’s very violent. She’s a, you know, very radical person. Very sad what happened. Her friend was very radical.”
Video evidence contradicts the administration’s initial claims that the Minnesota mother was trying to run over agents; her tires were pointed away, and she was shot as she attempted to pull away. But Trump didn’t care to address the facts.
Pressed again on what “absolute immunity” means, his next utterance was even more incoherent:
“Well, I’m going to let the people define it. But immunity, you know what immunity, what knows means as well as I do.
If that’s meant to explain a legal doctrine, the law has officially entered the Twilight Zone. Absolute immunity — in law — refers to certain protections for official acts, and it doesn’t blanketly cover every federal employee, especially not agents accused of homicide. Legal experts have publicly called BS on the notion that ICE officers enjoy “full federal immunity.”
Rather than clarify whether a federal agent could be prosecuted under state law for killing a U.S. citizen, Trump reverted to ranking insults:
“It was highly disrespectful of law enforcement… The woman and her friend were highly disrespectful… they’re professional agitators.”
Again, not an answer. A dodge. A cheap shot. He then blustered about uncovering “who’s paying for it,” as if the question were about a dark money plot instead of a life taken by a government agent.
