Don't be too surprised if a back-dated self-pardon suddenly shows up.

[Frasier Balzov]

I know it won't solve his Georgia problem.

But it just feels like his federal crimes will be put behind us in that convenient way.

1. There is none.

Pardons are not secret.

[Sneederbunk]

2. He need only to have thought it.

[Grown2Hate]

3. And if NOT, he's possibly a bigger fucking

MORON than we previously thought (and that's a HIGH bar).

[H2O Man]

4. no

[perfessor]

5. That would be hilarious.

But he won’t do it.

[tritsofme]

6. It wouldn't help him with the Mar-a-Lago documents.

The potential crimes occurred after he left office.

[Lettuce Be]

7. Sure, he can try, but it won't fly. Self-pardons are not a thing, not now, not ever

You cannot be your own judge and jury. Doesn't mean tRump won't try, and cause a big fancy lawsuit project, all the way to the Supremes, but it still will not fly.

[BlueSpot]

8. Just burn it up in the fireplace n/t

[Blues Heron]

9. thats like pulling yourself up into the air by your shoelaces

it can`t be done

10. Closing Argument #1: Why the Courts WILL Strike Down a Trump Self-Pardon

Self-pardons do not appear to be constitutional. Otherwise, TFG would have done a self-pardon before he left office

11. It's only legal if he uses the correct color of sharpie.

[Captain Zero]

12. Only legal if when he granted it ...

he shook his right hand with his right hand.

[Sympthsical]

13. No court would uphold a self-pardon

If a president could pardon themselves, what would constrain them from breaking every law imaginable while in office and simply going, "Too bad. Pardon!"

This is kind of wacky even for your usual armchair internet constitutional scholars.

[onenote]

14. I, for one, will be surprised.

[LiberalFighter]

15. Is there a bridge or hotel for him to fall from?
