'They always manage to sink lower': Trump degrades GOP with demands for legal protection

Republican Party leadership has so thoroughly debased itself to stand up for Donald Trump in the midst of his criminal prosecutions that any previous claims of principled positions have lost credibility. While Trump may survive his legal battles, the Republican Party has already lost. Alex Wagner and an MSNBC panel discuss.

[@richietattersall2122]

@alexibarra4702 Not a chance, there are limits to it. If it was a right, every Citizen of the United States of America could be elected as President, they can not be. They have to be a "National Born Citizen" of the United States, that does not apply to either the House of Representatives or the Senate. They have to be a Citizen for 7 years, and at least 25 years old to be a member of the House. A Citizen for 9 years and at least 30 years old be a member of the Senate. They have to be at least 35 and a resident of the United States for 14 years to qualify as a President. They do not have to be born within the borders of the United States to qualify. The other part of that saga with both "Houses of Congress" they only have to be a resident of that State on election day care of the United States Constitution. Another thing, absolutely NOTHING in the Constitution requires a Judge to be a Citizen of the United States, it should, but it doesn't
