No, Trump can’t pardon himself. The Constitution tells us so.

The president continues to block his case and knows being sworn in to be his destruction, but does he have the right? ...and if he does would that be the right thing to do for the country?
No he doesn't have that right and here's who says so:

Laurence H. Tribe, chief White House ethics lawyer for President George W. Bush from 2005 to 2007 and is vice-chair of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW).

Can a president pardon himself? Four days before Richard Nixon resigned, his own Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel opined no, citing “the fundamental rule that no one may be a judge in his own case.” We agree.

And what might be the need for any pardon, he has been charged with nothing.

the Constitution does not say that.

Read it and see for yourself.

Nixon as crooked as he was still understood at a basic level that he was president not emperor and was subject to the rule of law. Although Trump is arguably the most powerful man in the world he lusts for the power held by strongmen and despotic dictators like Putin, Kim, Dueurte, and the Kings and sultans of the Middle East. These men answer to no one and rule by decree regardless of the law or public opinion. Trump resents the fact that in the US the president serves the people he dosn’t rule over them. Our nation is founded on the rule of law and eventually Trumps illegitimate reign will end in his humiliation and removal. The country will wear his stain for a long time but we will persist and recover from this obscene anomaly.

Your hate is irrelevant.

The reason you've never shown proof of Trump crimes is that there isn't any.

Get a Life.

Morgan, I certainly wouldn't past the Donald to try. He is sending the message to his crew that is being investigated, or indicted that a pardon will be issued to them if they don't testify against him or if they refuse to answer any of Muellers questions. This person doesn't give a damn about protocol, or constitutionality of an action.

The left stream media has already changed him, they have convicted him and all the need to do is hang him.

Why is this even a question? Trump been charged? Trump say if he was charged he’d pardon himself? The only actor acting authoritarian in this entire mess is Mueller. Talk about Un Constitutional. There was never a reference in the Constitution (I believe) to a SC with unlimited power.

And Mueller does? I sure hope you’re lying about being a teacher. No wonder this generation of snowflakes know nothing of history.

A better question asked is...why does he keep blocking the endeavors to find the truth, especially if he were innocent. 1+1= 2, easy

I assume you think him pardoning himself is the right conclusion here. Our Framers have put in rules/laws to prevent this kind of corruption, where no one is above the law, which is why we are full proofed with a working legitimate congress, Unfortunately legitimacy can fly out the window when a party i in full control and are sworn to a person and/or party instead of what is right and just, we are heading to a moment in history when we watch to see which direction our congress and supreme court will go.


Using official powers for corrupt purposes — such as impeding or obstructing an investigation — can constitute a crime. Trump may increase his impending charges of conspiracy to obstruction to justice.
