TRUMP DROPS A BOMBSHELL:

4D Chess: Trump Reveals He Preemptively Pardoned Himself Before Leaving Office

Politics · Mar 20, 2023 · BabylonBee.com

PALM BEACH, FL — Democrat dreams of seeing President Donald Trump indicted and arrested this week were dealt a blow after Trump revealed he had preemptively pardoned himself prior to leaving office in January 2021.

"The radical Democrats will not succeed in this WITCH HUNT! I happen to have given myself the biggest, most beautiful pardon the day before I left the White House," Trump said in a post to his Truth Social account. "This pardon exonerates me from any crime I did or didn't commit, at any time, ever, now or in the future. It is the greatest, most powerful pardon in the history of the world. The Democrats will not win! It's all a SHAM! SAD!"

Attorneys and other legal experts were reportedly engaged in debate as to whether or not it's actually possible for someone to pardon themselves for a crime they say they haven't committed. "This would be quite unprecedented," said lawyer and law professor Alan Dershowitz. "For a President to pardon himself for a crime, then maintain his innocence of the said crime, is a bold move, even for Donald Trump. This may go far beyond ‘4D chess' and into a fifth dimension of chess. The man is simply brilliant."

Democratic leaders from all levels of government remained convinced that this was finally going to be the time they successfully brought down Trump. "All the other stuff we've made up hasn't worked," said one unnamed Democratic insider, "but this time — THIS TIME — it's going to work! For real!"

At publishing time, Trump was planning to release a limited edition NFT trading card of his pardon for himself and sell it for $100 million.

To accept a pardon one must admit guilt. Now let's see the paperwork.

I hope he did... I would laugh my ass off... MAGA Make America Great Again....

 

[BULLDOG]

You posted this as a joke. The funny part is that your joke certainly sounds like something trump might claim. .

Not even Trump's scotus picks would rule that a president has the power to pardon himself.

I think a president can pardon himself except under impeachment... however this Bragg case could be a state issue where the president can't pardon... but in order to convict Trump in this case could mean it is a federal case so it will have to be worked out in court....
its a toss up that would take years to work out....

I pardoned myself for the greatest, most powerful belch ever at my sister's wedding.

It was applause worthy.

A president trying to pardon himself out of trouble is completely alien to what the founders plainly envisioned for the limited powers of the chief executive

No its not... a president has total power to pardon anyone he see's fit to pardon for past charges... This Stormy case was originally brought years ago... so it fits....
But like I said this may be considered a state issue and he can't pardon state cases... however if Bragg's case involves election tampering that makes it a federal case... Bragg hasn't thought this out very well....

Even the Babylon Bee is making fun of the poor loser. Must suck to be a trump supporter.

Only a self-loathing narcissistic progressive Democrat would take that story that way.

Well, this OP made me laugh, as the BabylonBee often does.

Amazing that some Trump cultists take it as serious. Of course we live in crazy times, and this being the “good old U.S.A.” even the craziest of the crazies will have another chance to vote for their ever-entertaining MAGA leader … even if he is by that time behind bars.

Meanwhile, looks like the rest of us will be stuck with … you know who.

Damn, is Donald Trump actually going to pretend he is … a new version of Eugene Debs?

Here was another funny take on The Donald’s latest announcements, as interpreted by American late night TV humorists and as published in the British Guardian …

Jimmy Kimmel on Donald Trump: âHis legal problems are based on him being an idiotâ

Late-night hosts discuss the possible indictment and arrest of Trump for hush money payments to Stormy Daniels

I don’t usually watch this stuff, and it sure isn’t all funny. But the Guardian quotes are the best…

Wish American political life was really as funny as the Guardian portrays it!

Never in history has the statist left so feared a POTUS as they fear Donald Trump. The fear that the statist left is exhibiting towards Donald Trump is so absolute that it actually has turned into awe & worship. The statist left must be viewing former pres. Trump as Big Daddy Jehovah Himself! Like I am getting off watching the statist left cowering in fear of the Big Guy"!

They used to shoot em from the book depository....but I think that might cause us to burn the place to the ground if they pulled that stunt again.
