Pretty much what the title says. I know he’s a former president and has all of his supporters, but what’s the official reason? Thanks.
I assure you, the criminal cases are coming against Trump
Fucking when, after he becomes president again and pardons himself, or after he croaks from obesity and dementia?
As much as I’d like to believe that SCOTUS will honor separation between state and federal, I simply do not trust our current justices. I fully expect them to say, “Nah…it’s totes cool for Trump, and only Trump, to commit crimes.”
At some point people are just gonna start ignoring the SC completely. I can’t find any polls specifically about legitimacy per se, but confidence in the court is already very low, and even Republicans aren’t all that happy with it.
He’s not supposed to be able to do a lot of the shit he’s getting away with. At this point I fully expect him to try to pardon himself, NY will say he can’t do that, it’ll go to the SC, who will say that he can.
Do state cases stay state cases?
Could “someone” leak some evidence that would make the case a federal one, and then pardon himself?
After all you’ve seen Trump get away with I can’t believe that you still somehow think this little detail will matter. SCOTUS will create an exemption of some kind for him.
“White male Presidents over the age of 75 that wear predominantly red ties can pardon themselves at both the federal and state level.”
