Who do you think Trump will pardon if he loses?

First: Donald Trump will try to pardon himself.
Second: he will try to preemptively pardon Ghislane Maxwell. In fact I think he is sweating his reelection because he can't pardon her yet and if he loses before she is convicted of any crime he won't be able to pardon her and she might spill the beans....
Third: William Barr will be trying to figure out a way to not be arrested when his tenure is over. He recent said lockdown was more intrusive on civil liberties than Japanese Internment.
Fourth: Giuliani: For being caught on To Catch a Predator....
Fifth: Rick Ross, the rapper, not the Rickey "Freeway" Ross, or R Kelly in a terrible miscalculation to pander to the blacks.


Why on earth would William Barr be arrested?

How can he pardon himself? Or the whole step down and let pence do it thing?


Educated legal scholars have already weighed in and stated Trump cannot pardon himself.

Which would also explain the push to have ACB confirmed so quickly.

ACB was rushed most likely because they 1) on the senate side think trump is going to lose and want to get what they can while the gettings good & 2) on the trump side think she will help him steal the election if it comes down to a close enough race that they can pull off some fuckery.

3 of the 6 conservative judges currently in the SCOTUS Barrett, Kavanaugh and Roberts were involved in helping Bush steal Florida. It could be a total coincidence, but I doubt it.

isnt this pardon stuff silly? he hasnt been accused of or especially convicted of any federal crime. what would he be pardoned for?

i know the saying "blanket pardon" is a thing, but is it real for a president? can they pardon accused crimes? does a pardon require guilt, either from a jury's decision or admission of the guilty? etc.

also wouldnt a loss in 2020, and a pardon, stop a 2024 potential run?

Contempt of court, by refusing to give Congress the full and unredacted Mueller report.

Well luckily the state of NY is the one alleging most crimes currently and he can't be pardoned from them no matter what. So hes going to have to go far far away. An illegal immigrant some might say. Many people are saying it actually, but the news won't show it.
