Trump Has Screwed Up Or Failed On Just About Everything - I'm Counting On Him To Screw Up Pardons...

somehow.

Right now the MSM is giving him the permission to use the power of pardons - even to the point of him pardoning himself.

I don't know how he's going to screw this up - but I have faith in him that he will.

it certainly would be delicious if he tries to pardon his whole criminal gang then it turns out that there was a clerical error like they got the dates wrong so all the pardons ended up being invalid or useless....

watching Rachel explain that pardons need to be detailed and clear about the crimes committed and laws violated. Competent lawyers need to be involved. If there’s ANY degree of difficulty to issuing a pardon, these clowns WILL fuck it up.

It's like he's telling the world they're all guilty.

I don't know the full story, but it looks like DOJ is looking a pardon, or two, that are in the works, but are hinky. I believe Barr's trip to the White House was to put them notice of the investigation.
