Do you think Trump will be subject to prosecution for his many crimes after he leaves office?
If Trump loses reelection in 2020 (not a sure thing of course), expect him to resign the day before the new president is inaugurated, and Pence to give him a full pardon (along with pardons for Manafort, Stone and Flynn).
Republicans, pundits and more than a few Democrats will welcome this: time to move on etc. The country will be too swept up in the excitement of the new administration to care. The new administration itself will be glad to be rid of the distraction.
And Trump’s lifetime of getting away with shit will be complete. Soon we’ll see his name on schools, roads, airports. Brace yourself.
Wouldn’t it be great if the committee investigating Russian influence on the campaign could offer Roger Stone immunity from prosecution if he testifies to everything he knows? Including naming names: Bannon, Sessions, Manafort, Christie, Pence, Assange, Kislyak, Putin, Trump …
Stone is such a douchebag he’d have zero qualms about turning on his “friends” to get out of hot water. Anyway Ollie North proved that it can help you avoid conviction by a real court. The only downside is Stone wouldn’t get his richly deserved deserts, but I’m willing to pay the price.
Carter Page too, while we’re at it, though it wouldn’t be as mich fun.
