Trump: "That'll maybe be a nice birthday present for me" (the June 14 report on HRC emails)

Here are the 14 most bonkers moments from Trump’s impromptu press conference

3. “Yes, I do have an absolute right to pardon myself, but I’ll never have to do it.” Trump doubled down on his claim that he could pardon himself, even as he insisted no one was above the law. He again argued that he had done nothing wrong, so a self-pardon wouldn’t be necessary.

4. “Rudy is great, Rudy is Rudy.” The president defended his legal adviser Rudy Giuliani, who he said was doing a great job, and said he would not disagree that a woman who worked as a porn actress was disreputable.

7. “She wanted to go, she can’t fly for one month.” Trump insisted his wife wanted to attend the G-7 summit meeting but was still unable to fly after going a surgical procedure last month. Melania Trump did not appear in public for 26 days, and the president twice jabbed his finger toward the White House to show reporters where she presently was located.

8. “That’ll maybe be a nice birthday present for me.” The president suggested that he expected politically advantageous news from an upcoming report by the inspector general of the Justice Department.
