    This reminds me of another circular argument: Anything the president does can be considered “acting presidential” simply because they’re president. You might’ve thought that shitposting on twitter was unbecoming of a world leader, but once a president does it, it’s okay for a president to do.

    An argument to protect a fool from public criticism now doubles as a defense against legal action.
