Slow Thinker
Asked by a reporter if the president has the power to pardon himself, Texas Senator Ted Cruz was silent for 18 full damn seconds before replying, “That’s not a constitutional I’ve studied so I will withhold judgement.”
What he really wanted to say is, “Are your freeking nuts? Of course not.” But he was afraid Trump would call his wife ugly and give away the family secrets about his Dad killing Kennedy.”
By the way, I hear there’s members of congress who would pay a mess of money to hear Ted Cruz be silent for 18 seconds, and a couple of them just lost a $10 bet that he could could even do it.
pres Animal Shithole could declare himself unfit to govern (I know! I know!), be removed under Amendment 25. Prissy Pussy Pency could pardon him, then he could return to office, BUT . . .
Would PPP agree to pres’s return? Would the cabinet? Most of all, would 2/3s of the Senate?
Bwahahahahahahaha!!!!!
1when no one in your own political party, as odious as the GOP is, likes you, you’ve truly reached peak disgusting. and yet, he keeps getting re-elected, which says something even worse about the people voting for him.
2Saw that Cruz incident on TV this AM. He was actually trying to run away! Finally, when he realized he couldn’t, he rendered his comment. this guy is a lawyer? Really? I wouldn’t let him handle my case – even if he paid ME!
3Encore! Encore! What this country needs is more silence from Rethugs.
4Ted Cruz’ greatest hit. Ever.
5Let me get this straight, presidential pardon power is not a constitutional area Ted Cruz has studied? That would be with the exception of his 50-page article on “The Obama Administration’s Unprecedented Lawlessness” in last April’s Harvard Journal of Law and Public Policy.
Need another good reason to leave the Republican Party? Being a member increases your odds of getting dementia.
