35. The Voice of The Guilty Speaks.... !!!!
Mon Jun 4, 2018, 10:22 AM

"Over Twitter, President Donald Trump on Monday said he has the power to pardon himself".


What we must know and understand:

An honest and honorable man, needs no Pardon... and it is highly evident by the nature and virtues which led the minds and hearts of the framers of the United States Constitution who clearly understood this fact very well !!! within their works they as a collective of wise and thinking men, would 'NEVER" have conferred such an insidious power in the hands of any elected official and certainly not in the hands of any sitting President to Pardon Himself. That would be akin to establishing a basis for Dictatorship.


Let' not the wiles of evil men contort the systems of this United States, its Constitution and violate the virtures of its own Declaration of Independence.

The mere thought and claim of a President Pardoning himself, Insults and seeks to Usurp the very Declaration of Independence that Established this nation.


Such men who propose such commentary "as if any President can Pardon himself" is an aim to usurp the system and dignity of the Declarations of Independence which was established with firm conviction against any level or acts of Dictatorships, and anyone as being ones who commit such a claim of Absolute Power represents the most vile of Treasonous Acts and Subversive Conduct against America and All that America Stands For, and the penalty of the highest order should be given to them.
