Summary
Donald Trump’s re-election raises questions about the fate of his ongoing legal battles.
Facing 34 felony convictions and several federal and state charges, Trump could attempt to leverage presidential immunity to delay or dismiss cases.
Judge Juan Merchan will soon rule on whether immunity applies to Trump’s New York case involving hush-money payments, potentially canceling his sentencing.
While Trump can self-pardon federal charges, he has no such power in state cases like Georgia’s election interference trial, which may remain on hold until his term ends.
Civil lawsuits, including those for sexual abuse and fraud, are still viable under a Supreme Court precedent allowing presidents to be sued.
Come on. You fucking know what’s going to happen. “Uncertainty”, fuck off.
The rich fuck the poor yet again.
This shit is why New York should’ve already sentenced and imprisoned him.
Like many others, New York corrupted themselves treating Trump with partisan kid gloves, all the while trying to gaslight us that they were doing the opposite.
There’s no uncertainty. It’s over. He’s now completely immune. He’s going to get off scot-free from all of it.
Why though. Literally, there is no reason* it should stop. And self pardon? Obviously fucking shouldn’t be a thing.
GDI this day.
Edit: spelling
He doesn’t need to pardon himself. He’ll just fire Jack Smith and make this all go away.
He doesn’t need to pardon himself.
But he will. No reason to leave that to chance in the future. He already didn’t do that once, requiring him to get back into office. A pardon doesn’t need to be explicit about the crimes it’s pardoning. Just look at Nixon’s pardon as a template:
Now, Therefore, I, Gerald R. Ford, President of the United States, pursuant to the pardon power conferred upon me by Article II, Section 2, of the Constitution, have granted and by these presents do grant a full, free, and absolute pardon unto Richard Nixon for all offenses against the United States which he, Richard Nixon, has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 20, 1969 through August 9, 1974.
Just change it to Trump’s name and the period to “prior to January 20th, 2025”, and you’ve got a complete federal pardon for anything Trump has *ever *done in his life.
Lowkey wonder if that could be challenged
Global Defense Initiative?
Gross domestic income?
I believe he was complaining about college students who reject Greek life…
This is America. Our government is corrupted to the bone. We are compromised, and we are for sale.
The entire legal system has taken a wait and see attitude about all these cases because none of them want to be the one who puts a president in jail, and look what’s happened.
Could have set the precedent and saved us all a lot of Sorrow, but fuck it, a guilty man walks free, right into the white house.
They are all now complicit in what he does.
Lol, keep coping. Or read projet 2025 if you want to know what’s coming. Good news, you don’t need to read it whole, it just repeats once it gets to why LGBT people shouldn’t exist anywhere.
It sure is a good thing we slow played those criminal proceedings huh. Thanks Mr. Garland and Mr. Biden.
It’s been said a bunch of times, even in this thread but I want to say it myself…Uncertainty? The fuck is article even talking about. Everyone with a little knowledge and 10% of a human brain knows what’s going to happen to his cases.
