Above the Law???
So according to Trump, he has absolute power, is above the law, can never be held accountable, cannot be punished and can excuse himself of all wrongdoing????????
What in the actual f@$k is going on in this country??!! EVERY single American should be horrified by a president who thinks that he is untouchable. People!!!..................this is how dictators are born!!! WHEN is this country going to wake up and see what they've done. When will they see this power hungry, psychopath for EXACTLY what he is which is a lying snake.
I'm astounded by Trump's assertion this weekend that he is above the law. Trump is such a DESTRUCTIVE force in this country.

I wish they'd take him down already. So many investigations but no real momentum to get him to stop ruining everything.

Re: Above the Law???
He’s just awful. I see what things he has done on the news every night here.
I had a discussion with a checkout clerk here about Trump the other day. He asked where I was from (for some reason he thought I was French, lol). The clerk basically said that Cheeto was not right in the head. Yeah, no $hit.
Unfortunately, my BF is kind of a bit of a Trump sympathizer. It’s kind of annoying that he is that way, but I know he just doesn’t get the full picture. BF just says well the people elected him, blah blah. He doesn’t get the whole Russia thing. I do have to say that BF is coming around. I just kind of compare him to Hitler and then he’s like oh, ok. He doesn’t quite get the politics in the USA, which I find surprising.

SO is the same.
he's been a sympathizer... and kept saying, "give the man a chance, you might be surprised." then it moved to,"i wish he would do his job and just stop the twitter thing." now, i'm starting to hear him talk to himself when he thinks i don't hear him... he mumbles things about trump being an idiot and he can't wait until he's out of office.

Re: Above the Law???
I just find these last comments of his absolutely BEYOND horrifying. This man honestly thinks he's above the law, all powerful and should NEVER be questioned or held accountable. He's literally a dictator in training. ANYONE who thinks this man is some sort of America loving, "patriot" needs a reality check. He hides behind that crap while he's slowly trying to dismantle our democracy. Wake up America!

I just don’t get it. And my SO’s parents’ villages were taken over by the Nazis. I just don’t understand how he can have a bit of sympathy. It’s like really?

Re: Above the Law???
Where the heck did he say this?!? Was it another one of his twitter rants? While I’ve always thought he believed that he’s above the law, it’s an entirely different thing to actually admit that crap, and I can’t see where the heck this was even brought up?!
I’m patiently waiting for his 4 years to be up, and also terrified that he’ll get another 4, because where I currently live in PA, he’s loved and adored and it’s maddening.

Sadly, a lot of his supporters aren't looking for a leader, they are thinking "Ya know, if I was president, that's the same thing *I* would want to do!"
To even suggest self pardoning is a terrible thought. While not admissible in court, in my mind, it's basically an admission of guilt. You don't see innocent people saying "*IF* I did a crime, I could pardon myself". Sorta sounds like OJ's book...
If he does pardon himself, it's a full admission of guilt, just without the punishment. He would fully admit to colluding with Russia, but just avoid jail time. Not sure if he would be willing to admit that.

He tweeted this yesterday:
As has been stated by numerous legal scholars, I have the absolute right to PARDON myself, but why would I do that when I have done nothing wrong? In the meantime, the never ending Witch Hunt, led by 13 very Angry and Conflicted Democrats (& others) continues into the mid-terms!
