If Trump is allowed to pardon himself, it would set a bad precedent for further presidents. It would mean that they would be above the law. Trump should not be allowed to do this. Then again Trump is so stupid that if they told him that he could not sign it until 22 Jan, he would wait. Then it would be ooops, you aren't POTUS now, so your pardon means nothing.

*Trumpthink*
Trump: I’m going to pardon myself and my family of all the crimes we have or haven’t been charged with yet.
Advisor: Sir, do you realize that you would then be admitting guilt to all the crimes you have or haven’t been charged with yet?
Trump: Bullshit!
Advisor: Sir, guilt is legally implied with pardoning.
Trump: I will pass an executive order that redefines the meaning of pardon.
*More Trumpthink*
Trump: Where's my fuckin' cheeseburger.
These are strange times and 'the MAGA army' is focused on-----------------------Ivanka's bounce?
The only bounce of hers I want to see is when she is thrown out of the WH.
