Jason Miller, a top adviser to Donald Trump, was asked on CNN this morning if the president-elect would pardon himself of federal charges he faced, once he takes office.
Trump was indicted last year for allegedly trying to overturn the 2020 election, and for possessing and hiding classified documents. The justice department special counsel leading the prosecution, Jack Smith, last week dropped those charges, thought kept open the possibility that they could be reinstated at a future time.
Once he is inaugurated, Trump has the power to issue himself a pardon that could end his legal trouble for good. CNN asked Miller if Trump would do that, and he responded:
“That would never be something that I would weigh in on. That would be something for the legal team to discuss. And again, President Trump did nothing wrong.”
Maybe he won’t.
Until the last minute.
That way all the useful idiots can point and say “SEE?! He DIDN’T PARDON HIMSELF” until it’s far too late for the fucking morons to stop anything that Trump et co want to do.
Nah he’s not that smart. We’ll see the self pardon on day 1. I’ve got good betting odds on him attempting to pardon himself for state crimes too, which he can’t do, but he’s damn sure to try.
Said about most of the shit he’s already done
