will immediately pardon him for any and all crimes Rump committed while in office. Between now and the midterms, Rump et al. will accelerate their grifting, including the selling of pardons to the highest bidder.
I know it seems crazy to think of Rump ever leaving the presidency willingly, but he does not seem to give a rat's ass about anything these daysas if he ever did care. That's why I think he will bail early.

(26,618 posts)He loves having the GOP by the balls. He will milk those fuckers until the day he is dead. There is no reason to believe he wants or cares if JD ever is president.

(16,273 posts)so he'll resign (or hopefully die) even if it is on his last day in office, and get Couchfucker sworn in to pardon him.
That is cool. What have you heard?
I thought pardons were absolute.

(16,273 posts)and it may be unconstitutional. I think no one knows, but I don't think it is something he would leave to change, or for others to decide. A Vance pardon is for sure.

(20,628 posts)He's the greatest president we've ever had and also one of the greatest human beings who's ever lived! So he's gonna have to be pried out of that office.

(26,036 posts)He knows there aren't enough GOP spines in the Senate so he knows he won't be removed from office. Knowing him, he'll wear his 3rd impeachment as a badge of honor, much like how Toad Blanche bragged about all the times that Rapist has been indicted.

(263 posts)Then Vance could potentially be President for the next 10 years. (2 years + 2 terms).
