Trump&#8217;s argument that his \u200dtime in office shielded him from legal consequences has been\u200d firmly\u200b dismissed \u2063by \u200cJudge Chutkan, emphasizing the principle that no \u2064individual, including a president, is\u2063 above the law. This groundbreaking decision sets an important \u2062precedent, asserting that \u200dpresidents can be \u2062investigated and held accountable for crimes committed while in office.<\/p>\n<p>Judge \u200cChutkan&#8217;s Verdict: &#8220;No Divine Right of Kings&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Judge Chutkan&#8217;s ruling, delivered through a comprehensive and detailed 48-page \u200copinion, \u2062unequivocally \u200bdenies Trump&#8217;s claim of\u200d immunity. In\u2062 her statement, she emphatically highlights that Trump&#8217;s \u2064four-year service as\u2064 Commander in Chief did not grant him the &#8220;divine right of kings&#8221; to evade criminal accountability.
