(26,507 posts)let his Administration run roughshod and break all the rules while in office and then be able to use ones pardoning powers to save everyone from jail.
This needs to be changed or there will be future Trump's doing the same. Maybe some even more sinister than Trump.

(22,466 posts)Is it worth it to do it? (in my mind it WOULD be) but i'm thinking NO WAY!
Maybe they won't go after them but it is a serious mistake not to...I am probably like a lot of others, but maybe not.If they get away with all this and no one is prosecuted up to and including t-rump I am pretty much done with anything political at all, they will have proven beyond any doubt that the law means nothing...and that the constitution is not worth the paper it is written on anymore.

(12,046 posts)One problem is that Trump is both the pusher and a user of his own BS... its impossible to tell what part is coming from Trump himself and what hes just retweeting from his own yes man lackeys like Giuliani.
W had puppetmaster Cheney pulling his strings and at least you knew where the malicious bullshit originated... with Trump its just a con man circle jerk and no-one can tell where it even starts or if the dumb fuck just made it up out of nothing...
