Think we'll hear anything from the Dazzler about a violation of our "norms?"

We have had Trump indicted for holding classified information in spite of being President and the ability to declassify anything. On the other hand, PIPS had classified information on an illegal server and was excused because she was stupid and didn't had no intent to evade the law (intent was not part of the criminal statute). Then the dementia patient had classified information in his garage and at Penn. But he was excused because he was non compos mentis. Neither were President with the ability to declassify.
The New York trials were based on converting misdemeanors into felonies on a federal statute that wasn't cited in the indictment, argued at trial or cited in the Judge's instruction to the jury.
Trump's pardons were based on selective indictments of associates who wouldn't perjure themselves or like Bannon who claimed executive privilege from testifying to Congress. None of the dementia patient dems who refused to testify were indicted. Or any of barry's.

I cast my first vote for Gerald Ford. Imagine how shocked I am by the fact the President has this pardon power. Kvetching about Presidential pardons is our norm.

Shocking that H defends a blanket pardon for people he's spent years defending
How common are blanket pardons for people not charged with a crime
Don't hurt yourself spinning

How common is "retribution" as a campaign promise?
Nixon hadn't been charged.

Crooks - all of them.
SCOTUS needs to do work.

The Pardon Power "extends to every offense known to the law, and may be exercised at any time after its commission, either before legal proceedings are taken or during their pendency, or after conviction and judgment." — SCOTUS

What does that have to do with our precious norms?
Has any president blanket pardoned a group of people not charged or convicted?
No
So you blame Trump because you're a fucking hack

Can't pardon state crimes I'm told. We'll put them in jail one way or another. Maybe you could volunteer to defend them after all you voted for them knowing full well they were dirtbag criminals.

God I love the fact that they are forcing folks like our resident dipshit to defend this.
Classic.

Articles of Impeachment were already passed out of the Judiciary Committee before Nixon resigned. They would have certainly passed when they were brought up for a vote before the full House.
He had been "charged."
Ford's Pardon for Nixon wasn't a blanket pardon for Nixon. Other than that, you nailed it as fucking usual Dazzler.
You're old enough to have voted for Ford? You are old as fuck. I thought fat people didn't live that long?
