The original intent of the Framers of the Constitution cannot be understood to permit prosecuting the President for attacking a Secret Service agent because Ben Franklin was a nut who would absolutely slap a servant for dropping his snuff

Jonathan Turley doesn't know jack shit about this, which makes you wonder why he's opining as if he does.@Popehat, did the secret service kidnap the President Trump? pic.twitter.com/GXi5le51Rj

The testimony was that Trump was told they didn't have the clearance to go to the Capitol, they had to return to the West Wing. The POTUS is not the ultimate power who does as he pleases. He is the Head of State. The responsibility for his security does not fall on him, but neither can he push it away so he can go to the mall, if he wants to; or to Coney Island in the summer.
It's really not that complicated, and I don't even have to pretend I know what the law is supporting my argument. Although I'm quite confident it's there, or the Secret Service is virtually toothless.
