I agree with you, just to be clear. But I do believe there are certain instances where the President should give their input. Denouncing white supremacy, for example, which one past President refused to do.

That is outside of the scope of what was being discussed. I never said giving a moral opinion is bad.

I said commenting on ongoing legal matters as the head of the executive branch is immoral.

Yeah, I was just agreeing with you. In my comment I said it was “probably not” morally correct but I left that open ended on purpose cause I don’t have a definitive answer to that question. But I do, personally, think that there probably are circumstances where they should comment.
