Trump’s campaign raised $207M since Election Day — including donations to Trump’s new PAC, Save America. Just a tiny % of the haul has gone to pay clowns like Rudy Giuliani to lose case after case. The rest will keep Trump’s lifestyle and his attack on democracy going till 2024. — PolitiTweet.org

“if the issue were to arise, there’s a significant possibility that a court, dominated by self-identified originalists, wd invalidate the use of blanket pardons. This possibility should make Trump pause before offering such pardons to friends and family” https://t.co/AgZEMjnYTS — PolitiTweet.org

The sloppiness might seem a small matter, but it’s not. Here it’s emblematic of the weakness of mind and lack of care and respect undergirding the whole Trump effort and, indeed, the whole Trump presidency.  https://t.co/GvbE41pgnO — PolitiTweet.org

Everybody agrees a pardon can’t cover crimes not yet committed. But if presidents knew they could pardon themselves any time before leaving office, the effect would be identical: no worries about criminal exposure for whatever they choose to do while in office, including murder. — PolitiTweet.org

2. Similarly, the power to “grant” pardons doesn’t reach self-pardons. It doesn’t expressly exclude those either. But it didn’t need to. Why? Because we take for granted that nobody can put himself above all federal law. Not after taking an oath to uphold it, for sure. — PolitiTweet.org

1. Everyone knows the pardon power doesn’t reach state crimes. How do we know that? Art. II says “pardons for offenses against the United States” but it doesn’t say “excluding offenses against just one State.” That didn’t need saying. Why? Because we take federalism for granted. — PolitiTweet.org

Why presidents can’t possibly pardon themselves: I’ll explain to @Lawrence on MSNBC around 10:30 pm ET. It’s time to end the uncertainty. Even a Trump-packed Supreme Court couldn’t disagree without reversing the American Revolution. Hope you tune in. — PolitiTweet.org

If someone asked you: “Can a president pardon himself on day 1 of his presidency so as to immunize whatever crimes he commits during his term?,” you’d say NO WAY. So would James Madison. But a power of self-pardon would confer exactly the same license to live above the law. — PolitiTweet.org

Inquiring minds want to know: How will ex-President Trump’s attention to problems like the pandemic differ from the attention he paid (or didn’t) pay those problems during his presidency? Will he be golfing any more once the heavy lifting he did (or didn’t) do as POTUS ends? — PolitiTweet.org
