McConnell was very adamant, however, that it’s not his job to decide whether Trump is granted immunity against crimes committed while in office.

Mitch McConnell said in an interview that he doesn't think presidents should be immune from prosecution for actions they took while in office.

We have a big case today in the Supreme Court on presidential immunity,” Trump told reporters. “A president has to have immunity, otherwise you just have a ceremonial president." Trump made his comments at a drop-by visit at a midtown Manhattan construction site ahead of his court appearance on Thursday and the Supreme Court’s hearing in Washington on presidential immunity.
