One of the authors of the article, Richard Painter is a noted constitutional scholar, professor of law at U. of Illinois, a conservative, and was George W. Bush's Chief ethics lawyer.

He's also vice chair of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington.

No wonder you disagree with him.

Conservatives are now eating their own. :popcorn:
GWB's ethics lawyer?

What's next? Podesta praising the DNC in a WAPO editorial?

You can't be serious.

I think that he's going to be more than willing to try if it comes down to it. We may have the chance to see.
Your post reminds me of a story I heard once about a man who closed his eyes when masturbating.
He ended up with a guide dog because whenever he opened his eyes........he didn't know where the F he was. :oyvey

Notably, he announced that “all agree the U. S. President has the complete power to pardon.”


The Republicans have made a very, very big mistake by putting this guy in the White House.

Look up the numbers from the treasury dept yourself. Even th liars at pilitifact admitted Trump decreased the debt. Back in February, they said it was still "misleading" because the debt could increase any day now.

Well look up the numbers, my friend. The debt has decreas even more, a lot more. Strangely, politifact is silent?

Yeah. It says $12 billion. As a result of lower short term expenditures and high revenues. Nothing to do with Trump.

So, you're full of it. Thought so.

So, in your opinion, Trump should do what no other sitting U.S. president nor King or Queen of England has ever done, which is pardon themselves for crimes they claim don't exist.

Maybe because it's not true?

Current debt is $19.966 trillion.

From YOUR link "On February 21st, a month later, the US Debt load stood at $19,935 billion"

So it's up almost 30 billion since Feb.

That was back in February. The experts at politifact said it will probably bounce back. What happened to the national debt since February?
