Hold onto your britches son, weāll know the answer to that question when Mueller concludes his investigation. Unless we allow the results to speak for themselves, youāre a part of the polarization of this country and should be ashamed.
Holy smokesā¦ Are you really that invested in this that you canāt even read words? For what crime was Nixon pardoned? Itās a really simple question and the pardon is a very short proclamationā¦
NOW, THEREFORE, I, GERALD R. FORD, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, pursuant to the pardon power conferred upon me by Article II, Section 2, of the Constitution, have granted and by these presents do grant a full, free, and absolute pardon unto Richard Nixon for all offenses against the United States which he, Richard Nixon, has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 20, 1969 through August 9, 1974.
Using you logic, Trump could take this paragraph and just replace Nixonās name with his and change the datesā¦ No need to specify a crime at allā¦
Oh come on. Tan suits and dijon mustard were never issues Republicans cared about. The only people who brought that up were the snowflake libs. There is zero evidence of any high profile Republican, or even posters here at HannityLand, cared about those issues.
The problem I see with Trump pardoning himself is that in so doing, he admits that there is a crime requiring a pardon to avoid the consequences of said crime. Does he really want to go that route?
Heās prepping his followers to accept it when it happens. Heās going to be claiming any āillegal behaviourā that turns up as a result of the Mueller investigation to be āfakeā. He will claim that he doesnāt need to pardon himself, but he will do it anyways because the ācrimesā are totally made up and there was no collusion.
Heāll claim that he was going to be charged with a crime, so heāll have to pardon himself. But heāll still claim there was no crime, and that the investigation was a witch hunt. He believes he can do and say whatever he wants to, and Republicans will accept it.
