    The good news is we’ll get a Supreme Court decision on the president pardoning himself. The bad news is we have a president who believes laws don’t apply to him and it will be decided by a court of judges whom he mainly picked, and I’m sure will not see the need to recuse themselves due to any conflict of interest

      We’re going to get a Supreme Court who says a sitting president can’t go to jail for any crime, including the state felonies he’s been convicted of that he can’t self pardon.

      decided by a court of judges whom he mainly picked

      and who have already ruled that he is all but immune from prosecution.
