McConnell actually comes out and says he backs it then Trump probably done. He could bring enough votes to carry the guilty vote. Possibly in an exchange for a pardon?Murkowski already has broken, McConnell could very well and the NYT has said 10 to 20 more are waiving.
It's a battle for the soul of the Republican party. The republicans are starting to see Trump as a drag that will lose them elections.
If enough companies stop supporting people who back Trump (and that's gathering pace) the self interest moves from supporting him to going against him. Don't think we'll see enough when it comes to it, but it's gathering pace.McConnell actually comes out and says he backs it then Trump probably done.

There's enough toxicity going to come from the court cases that are going to flood Trump next couple of years to probably bury him anyway.
All he is going to do is to turn more people against him. He's a narcissist though.
No win no fee
Is it wish to stiff someone who knows there the bodies are buried?
He loses the pension and secret service lads too, fuck him.
Mad that all this has happened when that poster who's lived there before told us Trump was going to successfully overturn the fraudulent election
The unthinkable has happened, QAnon being disavowed by lunatic conspiracist Alex Jones
Apparently not but there is a theory that if Trump pardons himself it would serve as an admission of guilt which would open the floodgates for civil cases.Daft question, is there anything in US law that prevents a president from presidential pardoning themselves?
Pretty sure there'd be a rule reversing that after the event anyway, and not entirely sure that you can pardon somebody *before* they're convicted of something, anyway?!?Apparently not but there is a theory that if Trump pardons himself it would serve as an admission of guilt which would open the floodgates for civil cases.

Issue seems to be there is nothing specifically that says he can or can't. It's about interpretation which is why it would possibly end up at the Supreme Court.Daft question, is there anything in US law that prevents a president from presidential pardoning themselves?

It only works for federal crimes anyway and there is a huge state case being built against him in NY. I did see that there is an amendment clause that would allow him to be barred from ever running for office with a simple majority in Congress. Seems a safer bet for the Republicans than going down the impeachment road
I though the Manhattan prosecutor is going to make their case federal because there was cross state skulduggery
going on?
Based on a previous Supreme Court ruling that accepting a pardon is an admittance of guilt.Apparently not but there is a theory that if Trump pardons himself it would serve as an admission of guilt which would open the floodgates for civil cases.
Untested but possible from what I read last week. Mainly because it doesn’t specifically say in the constitution that he can’t.Daft question, is there anything in US law that prevents a president from presidential pardoning themselves?

If they have their wits about them they’ll keep it as a state case so no pardon shenanigans
They won’t take it lying down.WTH?
Martial law? With pillows?Better than using guns I suppose.
Everyone's going to be spitting feathers.
Up early. Where did you just spring from?They won’t take it lying down.
My Pun Senses woke me. Although I should probably quilt while I’m ahead.Up early. Where did you just spring from?
Is that kinda like a Spidey sense thing?My Pun Senses woke me. Although I should probably quilt while I’m ahead.
Kinda. I’ve also been climbing the walls these last few months...Is that kinda like a Spidey sense?
I saw this. I can’t imagine they’ll just go away.NRA files for bankruptcy. So now economically as well as morally bankrupt.

Not actually bankrupt according to them. Just moving out of New York.
One guess where they want to move to.
Trying to relocate because of a massive fraud trial pending against executives.NRA files for bankruptcy. So now economically as well as morally bankrupt.
