How would any of that be affected by writing out a dozen sentences a day? But the thing with Trump is he was supposed to be unlike any other president.

Exactly. Even Nixon did not even consider a self-pardon.

The concept only makes sense if he KNOWS he did something wrong.

This is beyond nuts.

It's not Republicans vs Democrats any more. It's morality vs amorality/immorality.


Maybe he's wondering what his options are if he gets framed.

"I am certain that Putin did not collude with Trump, because Putin assured me repeatedly that he was only colluding with me!" :lol:

Pardon himself from what?


That's a good question. You have to ask why Trump has been talking about pardoning himself if he did nothing wrong.


This rumor stems from the Washington Post claiming it received a tip (from an anonymous source I'm sure) that the president had essentially asked (who?) if he could pardon himself and his family.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics ... cd2f95b206

At this point in time this has zero credibility in my opinion.


Why? Because it's the Washington Post?

Hey! Even the Post is correct sometimes.

Jill Stein is absolutely right.

Hillary Clinton is a sack of corporate slime ... just like Trump.

Because it was the WP with their usual 'we received a tip from an anonymous source' routine.

The Washington Post was right when they published Woodward and Bernstein's stories, which were by and large based on anonymous sources (Deepthroat). Sometimes sources won't play ball unless they're given anonymity.
