Neal Katyal to Nicolle: tRump cannot pardon himself

[stopbush]

He pointed out that the same DOJ directive that says a sitting president cannot be indicted also says a president cannot pardon him/her self.

4. First I've heard this. All I've heard are arguments

that he can't, but nothing tangible.

7. The DOJ document is a legal opinion and is certainly not binding on the President

or the courts.

5. Which why I have been saying for months that the only option for Trump is for him to resign and for

President Pence to pardon him (Pence's refusal to go down that 25th Amendment route). While he will still be open to State charges, he'd be wiping out all Federal crimes against him. Trump can blame it on the "Radical Democrats" and all his haters etc, but it's a complete no brainer for him to do it.

6. Explains why he's clinging to any last possible way he can remain PResident

His headspace is a frantic mess!

Maybe he'll go to Camp David & just wander aimlessly off into the woods.
