Pardon me sir, but can I pardon myself?

Kavanaugh is a fascist who will gladly follow Dear Leader over a cliff.
That much should be obvious by now. (September 5, 2018 at 2:07 pm)Minimalist Wrote: Kavanaugh is a fascist who will gladly follow Dear Leader over a cliff. 45 is behaving like one. I think conservatives outside congress even judges like him, wouldn't see themselves as such, but follow 45 because they see it as a path back to the good old days when white Christians controlled the driver's seat to the bus. If you look at human behavior in our species history, the gatekeepers fear change, the majority in that society fears change. That isn't an excuse, but an explanation. The worst part for conservatives that they do not understand, when making the argument "Christian nation", just like Saudi Arabia and Iran, whom say "Muslim nation" Is that that seeming majority, if it gets what it wants, the powers will start going after even them. Krapengual probably does not see himself as a fascist, but regardless, he is still being put into a position to potentially protect a despot wannabe because he panders to religious conservatives. Still scary any way you want to argue it.

Sounds like an oversight problem that needs to be fixed. The whole thing reminds me of this Canadian video classic: (September 5, 2018 at 7:21 pm)Astreja Wrote:(September 5, 2018 at 7:08 pm)RoadRunner79 Wrote: There was someone explaining the other day, how technically the President can pardon himself, and that the DOJ is not in a position to prosecute the President, because he is the head of the DOJ. I agree somewhat; but in reality, it seems to be mostly a technicality. It would be political suicide to interfere with justice.

Wouldn't it be nice if presidents had little enough power it didn't matter who they were.
