His immunity defense isn’t merely a legal argument. He’s priming his base to back wanton lawbreaking if he wins back the White House.

If he runs again and loses, I’m not confident that we still won’t be fucked. The flat out refusal to recognize losing at all levels will start one hell of a wave of stochastic terrorism.
I don’t even fucking care. Let the stochastic terrorism come; it’s the least-bad alternative on the table at this point.
Make no mistake: capitulating to the fascists in any way is infinitely worse.
Absolutely! I refuse to give in because of the risk of what would happen. I just wish we weren’t in this situation.
Im not confident in that either but this is a situation that the government is likely prepared for. They know that he’s the leader and if you shut him up or take him down then there’s no one to lead or stage coups or collective violence against the state. So his followers are welcome to do whatever they want but it’ll be predictable and infiltrated immediately just like Jan6 was.
However, if he wins there will be no way for the state to oppose him effectively. He’ll gut most of our major departments and do extremely unpopular things without opposition. And we already learned that presidents have far too much unchecked power. If he wins, buckle up.
