And now, “This just in”; Trump [or his lawyer(s)] is investigating the process of Presidential pardons. Like for his people, his family, and (History here folks!) even himself.

By now he’s found out that every person he would pardon is immediately put in a worse position in many ways:

  • Everyone who receives a pardon is immediately assumed to have done something legally perilous enough to require such a high-level reprieve.
  • Once people have been pardoned, they no longer have 5th Amendment protections as witnesses against anybody else who hasn’t already been pardoned.
  • No President has ever been caught exploring the concept of pardoning themselves, so the public and the investigators already have an assumption we can easily make.
  • The only person he likely would not consider in need of a pardon, may end up being the only family member left “outside” to run the Trump organization; his son Eric!

(You know, “Gilligan Trump”; the guy too inept to even be trusted with handling the most sensitive cons, collusion's and money laundering duties?)
