What did the Supreme Court case US v. Nixon establish regarding the president?

  1. The president has unlimited executive privilege

  2. No person is above the law, including the president

  3. The president can withhold evidence if it pertains to national security

  4. The president has absolute immunity from legal proceedings

The correct answer is: No person is above the law, including the president

US v. Nixon established that no person, including the president, is above the law. This means that the president does not have unlimited power and must comply with the law like any other citizen. Options A and D are incorrect because they suggest that the president is immune from legal consequences, which is not true. Option C is also incorrect as it goes against the principle of the president being subject to the law.
