Important Announcement regarding the Alternative Views Subforum

[zeek]

Trump tweeted yesterday that he has an absolute right to pardon himself from any crime. "As has been stated by numerous legal scholars, I have the absolute right to pardon myself, but why would I do that when I have done nothing wrong? In the meantime The neverending witch-hunt, led by 13 very angry and conflicted Democrats and others continues into the midterms!"

Back when Richard Nixon tried to obstruct justice the then acting Assistant Attorney General Mary C Lawton addressed the question of whether the POTUS can pardon himself in a memo. She concluded that it violates the basic notion that no one can serve as their own judge. Nixon resigned four days later.

This is Trump's latest attempt to usurp the rule of law. He's claiming to be above the law like King George of England. That's why the colonies signed the Declaration of Independence and enshrined the rule of law in the Constitution. This guy Trump is a would-be tyrant and he must be stopped.

Here is how the UK solved that problem - put him in a castle (err.. white house?), pay him lots of money for doing nothing (err.. playing golf?)...give him a crown and fancy jewelry..call him "your highness" .. oh yeah the important one .. create a parliament. Problem solved.

Why shouldn't Trump enjoy the same perks as the Obama administration?

If Obama had done the same as Trump in his first year, he would have already been impeached.

That won't happen. The pubbies don't even care if Russia meddles in our elections, as long as they win.

I'm constantly amazed at how your conclusions are never supported by facts.
