The U.S. Constitution does not explicitly provide for presidential immunity. However, legal precedents, including Supreme Court rulings, have established that presidents have certain protections while in office, particularly concerning actions taken as part of their official duties. This has led to the interpretation that sitting presidents may have immunity from civil lawsuits related to their official conduct, but they can still be held accountable for actions outside their official roles. The extent and limitations of this immunity continue to be debated in legal contexts.
