What if DRUMPF pardons everybody?!1 & biggest stunt of all time if he testifies under oath

[UTUSN]

Another archaism in the Constitution (the Electoral C. is just one of several) - inability to override presidential pardons. The article is predictable for SEKULOW nuttiness and rehash of the past week, but there's this bit about DRUMPF testifying under oath. He probably *would* do it as a stunt to end all his stunts, without grokking what a perjury minefield he'd be skipping into. You go, DRUMPF!1

Trump’s lawyer coy on whether he’ll pardon figures in Russia probe

.... Still, Sekulow said Trump would appear before Mueller under oath if needed.

“Look, the president was very clear that if it came to that, and I don’t think it will, but if it came to that, he would do that,” Sekulow told ABC’s “This Week.”

As Trump associates are shaking up their legal teams, Sekulow said it’s not “unusual” for Trump’s reelection campaign contributions to be used to pay for the family’s legal bills.

CNN reported the Trump campaign paid $50,000 to the law firm representing Donald Trump Jr. ....

1. It would become apparent he's doing it to protect himself

which in turn is against the law.

[Shell_Seas]

5. Or to protects his family.

[Kablooie]

9. Everything is apparent but Republicans don't care about law or the constitution.

He will probably pardon everyone before there is any hearing or Mueller can present his evidence.
Everyone will be horrified except the Republicans who can do something about it. They will shrug and ignore the whole thing.

Just watch.

2. So we have to hope

that states are also working on this. I don't think that Mr. Trump can pardon folks accused of state crimes.

[TEB]

7. I'm with you

I hope ny brings charges then no pardon

[Shell_Seas]

3. Would it solve the problem if

Trump was charged and impeached FIRST? Then, he cohorts?

[California_Republic]

4. No pardons till charges...

If they do it right... get Trump impeached before charging others

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

10. Not true. He can pardon before anyone is charged.

That's what Ford did for Nixon. He had not been charged with anything at the time Ford pardoned him.

6. Trump can only pardon for federal crimes

Nobody in NY is going to pardon him for the stuff Eric Schneiderman is holding.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

11. Schneiderman is investigating a lot of financial stuff.

NY has a RICO statute similar to the federal one.

[Not Ruth]

8. Then everyone gets pardoned, but the next election is an enormous referendum against the GOP

[Bettie]

12. Appearing under oath doesn't make any difference

He lies as easily as most of us breathe, so lying under oath wouldn't be an issue for him, unless he is forced to swear an oath on himself, the only thing he values.

[Fatemah2774]

13. Can we the people...

Pardon him and tell him he gets a nice cell with bread and water, and if he pardons any family or Cabinet members, they get to join him and they all can wear purple and pink striped jumpsuits in similar cells?

Just a wonderful daydreaming thought.

But I like the purple and pink stripes, I believe it will give some class to these dunces.
