    I can’t win the case, so give me a shot at pardoning myself once I’m president. --Trump

    Not giving a defendant the chance to be president and pardon themselves is a miscarriage of justice! – His supporters

    I am invoking the “I could be president” precedent, your honor. Please delay my trial until after the next election. – Guy arrested for being an idiot in a few months.
