Pardon me Mr Trump

Trump: I have 'absolute right' to pardon myself



I suspect the Supreme Court would demur if it ever had to consider the point....but then Trump continues to operate in a parallel universe.

What is making him nervous is the investigation headed by the Special Counsel....not that collusion with the Russians is likely to amount to anything...... but they are digging up all sorts of interesting fiscal connections/possible criminal misfeasances involving close aides - and even his son-in-law Jared Kushner.

Trump may well have to wield his pardons close to home.

Whilst this might strike us as - to say the least - unethical it won't faze Trump who (allegedly) commented that he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and his core supporters wouldn't bat an eyelid

If you're missing "House of Cards"...which seems to have gone into cold storage following the disgrace of Kevin Spacey...I can recommend "Fire & Fury" by Michael Wolff. Available on Kindle.... an enthralling account (possibly largely fiction) of Trump-in-office up to the departure of Steve Bannon

Sounds like this may apply to a few Countries in the World Newc. Some Presidents pardon themselves others beat people up, not a lot of difference either way.... I cannot stand Donald Buttbuble anyway..

Nothing should ever surprise one about America, it's a young Country run by 'children these days fat children....
What happens over there ends up here (UK) because the Planet revolves, if it went the other way round then the Chinese
would suffer what we now suffer. Think on that!.....

I'll put it with the others....like the earth doesn't spin on its axis...or we'd all fly off !!!
