However, in a televised statement late on Monday, he emphasized the founding principle of equality in America, asserting that no individual, not even the president, is above the law.
Describing the judgment as a “dangerous precedent,” Biden expressed his deep concern over the erosion of the fundamental principle of equality before the law and the potential consequences for American society.

Furthermore, he expressed his disappointment that the court’s decision seemingly removes limitations on a president’s actions, endangering accountability and the pursuit of justice.
Former US President Donald Trump hailed the Supreme Court’s decision as a “big win” for democracy. Trump’s legal team is seeking to overturn his conviction in New York, utilizing the Supreme Court’s opinion to support their effort.
In conclusion, President Biden expressed his concern over the far-reaching implications of the ruling, highlighting the potential threat to democracy in America.
