Discussion: WH: 'Thankfully' No Need For A Pardon Because Trump 'Hasn't Done Anything Wrong'

All of those statements, no collusion, no obstruction, no wrongdoing and continuing to cooperate, all of them are flat wrong.

Lordy, I hope there are tapes.

(There probably are. Never let a good kompromat opportunity go to waste.)

So if he does pardon himself, that will be because he did do something wrong. Got it.

carolson · June 4, 2018, 7:36pm

But he won’t. Because he didn’t.

Chiselin’ Trump always gets two scoops.

“Thankfully, the president hasn’t done anything wrong and wouldn’t have any need for a pardon," she said.

That’s Donnie’s warped perception of reality. The fact that he believes his statement that “I didn’t do anything illegal or wrong” negates any findings by Mueller is further evidence of that he does indeed regard himself as being ‘above the law’.

The dam is starting to leak badly.

austin_dave · June 4, 2018, 7:44pm

Maybe stuff one of those Trump Hotel mattresses in it.

Have another corn dog, Mamie Hamhock.

So, nobody is above the law, Donnie pardoning himself demonstrates that he is above the law, Ergo -> Donnie is a nobody?

Yaknow, what’s the point of going to all that trouble to earn a degree in Mathematics, if I’m reduced to this sort of “logical reasoning”? I mean really, I might as well have studied Poly Sci…

She’s the Eva Braun of Leona Helmsleys

A lot of people don’t know this, but the POtuS has engaged in criminal activity.

lastroth · June 4, 2018, 7:47pm

Well you and I know the answer is “He’s insane”, in Trumplandia this just tough talk, or some shit.

mmurdoch · June 4, 2018, 7:48pm

Why not have all the republicans execute all the dems and people of color, then pardon all the republicans including himself. But you know, satire is dead it’s just not outlandish enough.

katscherger · June 4, 2018, 7:49pm

If he could pardon himself, why doesn’t he also declare himself king?

ralph_vonholst · June 4, 2018, 7:51pm

It’s why I became a botanist instead of a physicist.

lastroth · June 4, 2018, 7:51pm

Arrest the Leakers!!!

blandsten · June 4, 2018, 7:51pm

Can you imagine what the argument would be then?

First, there would be “fake news,” then there would be the: “Well he’s not a politician, he’s a business man, he gets things done. He didn’t know the specific ins and outs of Washington DC and the political establishment.”

The sounds of all patriots rolling in their graves would probably cause an earthquake somewhere.

Trump and his minions think Niccolo Machiavelli was one of the Founding Fathers.

austin_dave · June 4, 2018, 7:53pm

hahahaha With a little Leni Riefenstahl, for subtle marketing.
