The (misguided) OLC policy against ever indicting a sitting president, going back to 1973, would be superfluous if the president could get any such indictment dismissed by tweeting “I hereby grant myself a full pardon for ___ [fill in the blank by copying from the indictment].” — PolitiTweet.org

Presidential pardons can reach back to crimes committed many years earlier. So giving presidents the absolute power to pardon themselves would make winning the presidency a crime laundering bonanza — in addition to licensing still more crimes during each president’s term. No way! — PolitiTweet.org
