and our excellent POTUS grants pardons to all concerned, including himself, what signature legislation will be addressed? Me thinks tax reform
-Geaux
Only a guilty person pardons himself and others. And he cannot pardon himself out of the impeachment which would immediately follow.
Tax reform? From a guy who hides his tax returns?
It's hard to figure what's on Trump's mind. And that may be because Trump is so unfocused that even he has no clue as to what's on his mind. The NYT interview makes that seem the most likely.
If Jared and Jr just have some unlisted meetings and property, they'll skate. I think they'll hang Mantafort. There's just too much Russian money, and I doubt it must dried up before he came onto the campaign.
IF there's a trail of Russian intelliegence being shared with the Trump campaign, Trump's in deep shit. And if there's a trail, I suspect Mueller will give Flynn or Mantafort a get out of jail card for tying Trump directly to it. Trump's just playing to his 35% base, and trying to get out to continue his selling his brand on every product he can come up with.
Mueller can indict him, and he can pardon himself. I doubt the House impeaches.
