Donald Trump has been found guilty of using a criminal hush-money scheme to influence the outcome of the 2016 election.
The verdict came after a jury deliberated for less than twelve hours in the unprecedented first criminal trial against a US president. It marks a perilous political moment for Trump, the presumptive nominee for the Republican nomination, whose poll numbers have remained unchanged throughout the trial but could tank at any moment.
They don’t even have to delay endlessly.
They just need to say it’s all rigged against him, take the presidency and pardon himself and his cronies.
His base thinks falsifying records is “smart” and the banks are dumb for falling for it. They still think he’s a stable genius
He can’t pardon himself from a state crime.
Ha, you say that like laws are gonna matter when he takes office.
President can’t pardon state crimes.
Not with that attitude. You need the ‘tear down the rule of law from the foundation up’ attitude that Trump has.
Have you seen the Supreme Court lately?
