    Sessions reminds me of Milburn Drysdale from the Beverly Hillbillies, always trying to do the right thing by the boss Trump (Clampetts). In the end he'll regret ever having been involved.

    Desperado, you've got the weight on your shoulders...................
    He reminds me of Granny

    So when I read that twitter rant from this morning, I can't help but read that the President confirms that he really is contemplating pardons and that these unnamed sources from the Post aren't wrong. The second thing, the leaks he mentions of wrongdoings only confirm the info in them are true. 
    I would absolutely hate to represent him as an attorney. He literally builds the case against him.

    Three things on pardons:
    1. Doesn't there have to be a conviction in order to grant a pardon, by definition?
    2. If he pardons his children, Manafort, etc., they can no longer plead the 5th since they can no longer self-incriminate.  They will be compelled to answer in court, opening themselves up to charges of perjury if they say something that conflicts with FBI evidence.
    3. If either 1 or 2 takes place, they don't protect him from impeachment articles.  

    So it's a dangerous road to take, even without considering the political fallout.

    I notice that too, by senselessly reacting against the leaks he essentially confirms them.

    I'm not sure if you have to be found guilty first. When Ford pardoned Nixon, it was only a month after he left office. I think it kept him from any future prosecution. It's interesting and will be hammered out by people much smarter than me.

    Rest assured President Trump is exploring all angles and leaving no stone unturned to find a way to be legally authorized to pardon himself or his family members if the time comes.  He is being upfront w/ his this.  The people hammering this out have just been dealt a thud themselves by the President.

    You're right about that, concerning Nixon.  Good call.

    At some point all these nominees have to be illegal at some point, right?
