  the reasoning cited in a 1974 opinion from the Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel...said “it would seem” a president could not pardon himself.

  But that same opinion does suggest a potential workaround, envisioning as legally acceptable a scenario in which a president declares himself temporarily unfit for office under the Constitution’s 25th Amendment and transfers power to the vice president, who could then issue a pardon. The president could then either resign or resume his duties, the opinion said.

  LOLWUT imagine Trump declares himself unfit for office and then Pence is just like, “nah bitch fuck you” and leaves him hanging.

  Would be priceless.

  • He can just resign and Pence can pardon him. I'll bet that happens, even with Pence being "angry" now.formed
