He’s not in prison, got re-elected, and has almost fully implemented a fascist dictatorship. If that isn’t victory for a megalomaniac narcissist, I don’t know what is.
Meh, the good thing about such a pardon is that it can just be ignored by the next government, just like his government ignored everything that happened before
That probably wouldn’t happen. What would happen is that it would go to the courts whether a president can really pardon himself or not. His corrupt SCOTUS might actually say they can, but regardless it would probably take long enough that he’d be dead and not caring.
I mean… If you’re a giant piece of shit there’s been a lot to celebrate this year.
Congress has been dog shit as always, but the courts have significantly expanded the power of the executive and seem as though they are going to continue to do so. Once the justices got away with basically ignoring the concept of precedent with roe vs wade they’ve basically been handing down vibes based rulings since.
It’s going to be interesting to see how the current court stands by their rulings if we ever get anyone slightly left of George Bush back in the White House.

Yeah but here is the thing… laws only work if people obey them.
Trump on multiple occasions just ignored judge rulings with full impunity.
What trump can do, so can the next
Totally agree. Like I say, it will get challenged but I have zero faith that anything will happen.
