Pretty much what the title says. I know he’s a former president and has all of his supporters, but what’s the official reason? Thanks.

      After all you’ve seen Trump get away with I can’t believe that you still somehow think this little detail will matter. SCOTUS will create an exemption of some kind for him.

      “White male Presidents over the age of 75 that wear predominantly red ties can pardon themselves at both the federal and state level.”

      He’s not supposed to be able to do a lot of the shit he’s getting away with. At this point I fully expect him to try to pardon himself, NY will say he can’t do that, it’ll go to the SC, who will say that he can.
