    Nixon had pardon preventing future prosecution

    Trump’s best option is to say he runs 2024 campaign - popularity is the only thing that can save him from GOP abandoning him

      Self pardon sounds like a preacher forgiving himself for masturbating

        A pardon would be an admission of guilt, so what would he be guilty of?
        Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                You seem obsessed with this. Are you proposing a whip-round? I've got some drachma in a jar somewhere, he can have all of it...
                His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...

                  I know. It's why I want him to get a presidential pardon...

                    What Trump could do is resign so Pence will become president for two months, who can then pardon him

                      I've heard that the question of whether a President can pardon himself is similar to "Can Jesus heat a burrito in a microwave hot enough to burn even his mouth?"
