I’m Not Saying That Yesterday Was Crazy, But … Oh Hell Yes, That’s Exactly What I’m Saying
Here ya go.
- The Washington Post claims President Trump asked advisers about how to pardon himself, his family and his businesses on Thursday
- Separately, he has asked his lawyers to dig up dirt on former FBI Director Robert Mueller in an effort to discredit his Russia investigation, it was claimed
- At the same time, Mark Corallo, the spokesman from his legal team resigned
- Corallo did not want to publicly criticize Mueller as instructed, sources said
- Trump ordered a reshuffle of the team late on Thursday night as a result
- His long-serving personal lawyer Marc Kasowitz will see his responsibilities reduced as a result, it was claimed
Here’s where we are. Republican Senator Bob Corker said, “Things are starting to feel incoherent.”
Starting? Starting? Hell, Senator, we passed incoherent three months ago. We’re at fully discombobulated with some damn whipped cream on top.
Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
In retrospect, it’s odd that Nixon didn’t try pardoning himself. If anybody had a death grip on the White House door jambs, he did.
When I see pictures of President Obama, I sigh… Why can’t we have nice things?

2Okay, I read the new posts in reverse order when I drop in, and I didn’t know when I wrote the comment above that Micr had already addressed that point earlier today. Nixon didn’t pardon himself because he never thought he did anything wrong. He told David Frost years later that he should have just destroyed the tapes, thereby destroying evidence of crimes, and he was certain that “If the President does it, that means it is not illegal.” As arrogant as Trump, but slimier and less of a noisy brat.
3“I have this friend” and other words to express consciousness of guilt. Yet skull crackin’ st00pid Bob Corker says “Things are starting…”
4The Rat-in-Chief is looking to desert the ship and avoid the legal consequences of his actions. That pardon may end up being the largest trap of all.
5We’re a nation of winners; only losers need pardons.
6Didn’t traitor trump just admit that he’s guilty? And his family?
7Interesting comment by one of pundits yesterday that to accept the pardon means admitting to wrong doing.
I always assumed Nixon did not pardon himself because the ability to was not allowed or the optics was so bad by doing that. But I’m learning a lot more about laws these days and would rather the need to explore this never happened.
I really don’t feel I am better by learning about how pardons really work and what collusion really is defined as.
8“Things are starting to feel incoherent.”
9That would be funny if it weren’t!
